C Programming help beginner
Hi Guys, Firstly let me compliment on an excellent site to help beginner developers like me. I have a hangman project due today but still feel very loss with my code and would appreciate if you could guide me in the right direction.
I'm basically trying to load a file with words into an array while doing that i want to display the array to screen to see that is correctly reading the file. I have written my algorithm and will be going through it step by step but i'm stuck on the beginning stages with an error "line 15.12: 1506-195 (S) Integral constant expression with value greater zero is required" Please your assistance in this regardswill be appreciated.
This is my code snippet.
Code:
/* Author: Me
** This is my Hangman program, what a mission it was to make this work.
*/
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#define CHANCES 10
#define MAXIMUM 8
#define maxAttempts 10
int main ( void )
{
char MAX = 8;
char words[MAX];
int value, j, k;
int count = 0;
FILE *fp;
/* Read the file of words into the array*/
fp = fopen ("words.txt", "w+");
for (k =0; k < MAX; k++)
{
fprintf(fp,"%c\n", words[k]); // then display to see if it works.
}
fclose(fp);
}
