arrays with elements

Hello everyone,
I am having the user input a integer. Then from that input, search an array with static elements. Then return(print) how many times the users int was found in array. I am using a for loop to iterate through the array, but can not get it to count how many times it appears. This is the rough version I have so far:

Code:

---

#include <stdio.h>


#define SIZE 20

int n[]={25,68,15,35,84,56,8,52,27,7,53,15,8,42,32,1,5,8,41,23};

int c;
int t;

int main(void)
{
        printf("enter numer to search?");
        scanf("%d",&t);
        for (c=0;c<SIZE;c++) {
            if (t==n[c])
              printf ("yes");
            else {
                printf ("no");
          }
        printf ("the value %d was found %d times in array",t,n[c]);
        }



}

I know the last printf is wrong, but I am running out of ideas.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Create another variable called say
int numberOfMatchesFound = 0;

Which you increment at some key part in the code.

Try that.

thanks Salem, and Adak. Should I move the printf statement out of the for loop? I keep getting this as ouput.
