Thread: assign values 2d array to normal array

Hey guys,

I will sketch my problem.


My simplified code looks like this:

Code:

int permutations[3][4] = {
  {number[0], number[1], number[2], number[3]} ,
  {number[0], number[1], number[3], number[2]} ,
  {number[0], number[2], number[1], number[3]} 
}

void functionx(int number[]) {
  for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) {

  /* here is where I have no clue what to do */

  if(number[0] * number[1] - number[2] + number[3] == 10l) {
      printf("(%d * %d - %d + %d)", number[0], number[1], number[2], number[3]);
      break;
    }
  
  }

int main(int argc, char*argv[]) {
  int number[4];
  int i;

  for(i=0; i<3; i++){
    scanf("%d", &number[i]);
  }

  functionx(number);
  
  return 0;
}

So in the part from the comment I need some code to assign the vallue of the 2d array to the numbers. Example:

Input: 1 2 3 4
Then the first time it goes through the loop in functionx, number[0] has to be 1, number[1] 2, number[3] 3 and number[4] 4. The second time it has to change the place of number[3] and number[4] etcetera.

How can I achieve this?

I hope the idea is clear.

Kind regards,
Gertjan
