Hey y'all. I've decided to try and code a drafts game. However, I'm getting some rather odd output. Now, I know I could be doing this more efficiently, but right now I'm just interested in working code :)
Anyway, the basic problem is that when I try and detect a piece, it will only detect on the first row.
So, if I try "row = 1, col = 1", the piece will be detected. However, if I try "row = 2, col = 2", the piece will not be detected. I don't understand why though :S
This is not for homework or such, just my own personal want to learn to code. Any help is greatly appreciated :)
Code:#include <stdio.h>
void populateboard(void);
void printboard(void);
void makemove(void);
/* board[row][column] */
int board[8][8] = {0};
int turn = 1;
int main(void) {
populateboard();
system("CLS");
printboard();
makemove();
printf("\n");
system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}
void populateboard(void)
{
int i, j;
for (i = 0; i <= 2; i += 2) {
for (j = 0; j <= 7; j += 2) {
board[i][j] = 1;
}
}
for (j = 1; j <= 7; j += 2) {
board[1][j] = 1;
}
for (i = 5; i <= 7; i += 2) {
for (j = 0; j <= 7; j += 2) {
board[i][j] = 2;
}
}
for (j = 1; j <= 7; j += 2) {
board[6][j] = 2;
}
return;
}
void printboard(void)
{
int i, j;
printf(" 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8");
printf("\n ---------------------------------\n");
for (i = 0; i <= 7; ++i) {
for (j = 0; j <= 7; ++j) {
if (j == 0) {
printf("%i ", i + 1);
}
printf("| %c ", board[i][j]);
if (j == 7) {
printf("|\n ---------------------------------\n");
}
}
}
return;
}
void makemove(void)
{
int row, col;
start: ;
printf("\n%c's turn\n\nEnter row: ", turn);
scanf("%i", &row);
printf("Enter column: ");
scanf("%i", &col);
printf("\nrow: %i\ncol: %i\n", row, col);
if (board[row + 1][col + 1] == turn) {
printf("Piece exists");
} else {
printf("Piece does not exist");
goto start;
}
return;
}
