Thread: Use of a sprintf ( ) function ?

Hi, the following code is a part of my project. Actually its a game where user throws an object in parabolic path and it lands on the ground. The score is given depending on where the object lands. Now i am trying to store the variable " give_score" in an array, lets call it give_score_array[], but really struggling to do that. any help would be appreciated

if (pos_x_projectile > WALL_R + 20 + 0 && pos_x_projectile <= WALL_R +20 + 30)
give_score = give_score + scores[0];

if (pos_x_projectile > WALL_R + 20 + 30 && pos_x_projectile <= WALL_R + 20 + 60)
give_score = give_score + scores[1];

if (pos_x_projectile > WALL_R + 20 + 60 && pos_x_projectile <= WALL_R + 20 + 90)
give_score = give_score + scores[2];

if (pos_x_projectile > WALL_R + 20 + 90 && pos_x_projectile <= WALL_R + 20 + 120)
give_score = give_score + scores[3];

Erm, like this?

Code:

sprintf( give_score_array, "%d", give_score );

thanks Salem,

but the problem remains. you see, the user has 5 chances to throw an object and each time it lands somewhere on the ground and the score is given for that.

scores are stored in array

Code:

int scores[10] = { 0,20,30,40,50,60,70,80 };

now if i give user score for his first throw i store it another variable like this:

Code:

give_score = give_score + scores[1]

This will award user score of 20

Now i need to store the scores for 5 throws in another array called get_score_string. how do i do that. I am not sure about the type of this array (int or char) and about its size.

also i tried your code and it just gave garbage value.

thanks

So how about starting with
int scoreForEachThrow[5];
