Thread: Help with a for statement

I am trying to execute a for loop, this is the only part of the code which I cannot seem to figure out.

Code:

	for(n=0;n<9;n++)
	{
		if(n == 0 || n == 2 || n == 4 || n == 6 || n == 7)
		{
			printf("Player X enter the letter of the space you want to occupy> ");
			scanf("%c",&currentX);
			player_X(currentX, board);
			print_board(board);
		}
		else
		{
			printf("Player O enter the letter of the space you want to occupy> ");
			scanf("%c",&currentO);
			player_O(currentO, board);
			print_board(board);
		}
	}

What happens is that "Player X" can enter the space he/she wants to occupy, then the loop runs thru again with n = 1 (which should make it execute the else part of the loop,) the printf runs fine but the scanf never executes, Any help is appreciated.

I solved it on IRC, for anyone wondering there needed to be a space before both of the %c's in the scanfs because they were reading the '\n's instead of wanting user input.
