Subscripted value is neither array nor pointer nor vector

Hi, an error of 'Subscripted value is neither array nor pointer nor vector' has come up when I try to run my 'Hangman' program. It appears in the line:
if (yourletter[loopIndex]==1){

I've attached the full program. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

Well yourletter appears to be a single character not an array.

I have changed it to:
char yourletter[0];
But then I get a new error on line 52 ( yourletter=guess[0]; ) saying 'assignment to expression with array type'. What would I do to fix this?

(btw I am very new to C)

Note: I haven't looked at your entire code and am replying just to this message.

> char yourletter[0];

This is an array of char of size 0. It's not something you want, do you? Because you can't do anything with it. What you probably want is char yourletter[1];.
