    C Programming Homework

    Hello friends.
    I have a C programming assignment and I have very little time left.
    I need to write this function.
    I'd be very happy if you could help.
    Note: It is forbidden to use <string.h>.

    Write a function that takes name, type, attack range, attack power and stamina
    specifications of the all Pokémons built a Pokedex. The function takes the name of the Pokémon that is
    queried by the user (inside the function) and show the specifications of the Pokémon if it is in the Pokedex
    database. Pokémons and attack types of Pokémons must be an enumerated type. You can find professor
    Oak’s Pokedex information in Pokedex.xls file (you should not try to read information of the Pokémons
    from the file programmatically, just read the file to prepare your arrays and enums manually). The function prototype is:
    void pokedex(char *Pokemon_name[], int range[], attack_type type[],
    int attack_power[], int stamina[]);

    Example run on the function:

    Input:

    Please type name of the Pokémon (type exit to close Pokedex):
    Pikachu



    Output:
    Name: Pikachu
    A. Type : Linear
    Range: 3 block
    A. Power : 105
    Stamina : 500

If they do, I ask them to find the smallest example that exhibits the problem and send me that. Mostly, they then find the error themselves. "Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    I can't do my homework. I actually did the general part. But I don't know how to compare strings without string.h.

    So write your own strcmp.
    It's only a few lines of code.

    Code:
    int mystrcmp( const char *left, const char *right ) {
      // use a loop to compare left[i] with right[i]
    }
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Maybe it will help realising that a string is a char array that can be looped through using a 'for' loop
