Code:#include <string.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <windows.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
char sentzz[]="HELLO I AM A TEXT SCROLL\n"
"
int x; //special dialogue
int size;
size=strlen(senta);
for(x=0;x<size;x++)
{
Sleep(40);
printf("%c",senta[x]);
}
getch();
}
it would be a great idea to include some description, such as "i'm getting some build errors I can't decipher" or "point out where my logic is wrong." I can tell you that you're missing a semi colon after the text string, and you're taking the strlen of senta, which is undeclared. You're also indexing senta.
Sorry, I mis typed a little!
1. REPLACE the zz in char sentzz and make it read char senta[]="Hello Im Text\n";
because you have already declared x and size, you should get NO compile errors.
I do appoligise for my prevoius post, I was a little tired.
Here is a scroller program that i made
Hope it helps.Code:
