Hello
For some reason this gives an exception error in my compiler (VS.NET). I have no idea why i cant test a character like this. I'm a little rusty at the moment but i didnt realise i was this rusty!
Any help would be great!Code:char *pointer_String = "A1"; if (pointer_String[0] == 'A') { printf("It matches!\n"); }
Thanks very much!
Garry
That code works perfectly for me when compiled with DevC++/gcc
does it work?
As it stands, looks good
On the other hand, if you had this
if (pointer_String[0] = 'A')
that would be very wrong
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.
I did use the '=='.
Its strange, the program crashes when it gets to the if statement.
Any ideas?
Not without you post the whole program, or a cut-down one which still shows the problem.
Random side effects elsewhere within the program can sometimes have strange effects on what seems to be perfectly reasonable code.
