im having some trouble with pointers in linux (redhat 8.0 with gcc). i can run this code fine in windows but it just wont work right in linux
copy is just supposed to take a source a dest and some posistion info. it take the start and end and changes dest to be the middle(of start and end).Code:#include <stdio.h> int main() { char temp[20] = "testing"; char temp2[20] = {'\0'}; int spot = 2; copy(temp, temp2, &spot, 5); printf("%s\n", temp2); return 0; } int copy(char *src, char *dest, int *start, int end) { int x = 0; --*start; while(*start < end) { dest[x] = src[*start]; ++*start; ++x; } return 0; }
sorry about asking for help on this same dam function but i just dont get it!!!
