What I'm trying to do is print a 20 by 20 grid of dashes, except for one location that is a letter. My problem is that this has become an infinite loop, that prints nothing. Any suggestions?
Code:main () { int horizontalSpaces = 0, selectedOption = 0, direction = 0, verticalSpaces = 0, stateOfIgnition = 0, currentHorizontalPosition = 0, currentVerticalPosition = 0; char color = ' '; char ColorAssignment(color); printf("%c\n", color); srand (time (NULL)); (currentHorizontalPosition = 1 + (rand () % 20)); (currentVerticalPosition = 1 + (rand () % 20)); printf("Position : %d, %d\n", currentHorizontalPosition, currentVerticalPosition); IgnitionOff (stateOfIgnition); StateOfCar (color, currentHorizontalPosition, currentVerticalPosition, stateOfIgnition); /* COLOR ASSIGNMENT*/ char ColorAssignment(char color) { srand (time (NULL)); switch ( rand() % 5 ) { case 0: color = 'R'; break; case 1: color = 'G'; break; case 2: color = 'B'; break; case 3: color = 'W'; break; case 4: color = 'S'; break; } return color; } /* State Of Car*/ void StateOfCar (int stateOfIgnition, int currentHorizontalPosition, int currentVerticalPosition, char color) { int horizontalGrid = 0, verticalGrid = 0; printf("\nCar stats:\n\n"); printf("color: %c\n", color); if (stateOfIgnition = 0) printf("Ignition: On\n"); else printf("Ignition: Off\n"); printf("Position:%d, %d\n", currentHorizontalPosition, currentVerticalPosition); /* prints grid and location of car on grid*/ { while ((verticalGrid <= 20) && (horizontalGrid <= 20)) if ((horizontalGrid = currentHorizontalPosition) && (verticalGrid = currentVerticalPosition)){ printf ("%c", color); (horizontalGrid = (horizontalGrid + 1)) ;} else if (horizontalGrid = 20){ printf("\n"); horizontalGrid = 0; verticalGrid++; } else { printf("-"); horizontalGrid++; }} return; }
