Thread: Read blank delimeted textfile

Hello,

I have a problem with reading a textfile. My actual code:

Code:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  char *pstr[30];
  float *pflo[20];
  FILE *datin;
  int i,j,readint;

      
        datin=fopen("data.dat","r");


                /* Data file holds always exactly 9 values */

                for (j=0; j<=8; j++)
                {

                readint = fscanf(datin, "%s%f", pstr[i], &pflo[i]);

                /* Output */
                printf("%s\t%f\n", pstr[i], &pflo[i]);
                }

        /* Close*/
        fclose(datin);

  return 0;
}

the textfile looks like

Machine1 2.00012
Machine2 2.04523
...
...
and so on until Machine9

I get always an memory access error and don't know why.

Strange, normally it should work with the variable initialisation. No, I use string and float numbers seperately. No 2 dimensional array.

Another version of this code works, but only the strings of the first column are written correctly. And this without memory allocation ...

Nope, doesn't work

String output is correct, value output is wrong

thx, was a copy paste error
