Maybe because you're trying to copy a char array into a single char?

You could try changing your struct to this:



struct Room {
char south, north, east, west;
char id[2];
char...

I don't think it's good practice to use void main().


/*c program to find out the maximum and the second maximum number from an
array of integers*/
#include<stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
...

Ok here's my updated code. However I'm not too sure how to check without making everything uppercase or lowercase.

...

It's actually not because of 3 consecutive letters, but instead some of the strings in your input has the first character as a lowercase. I will have to work on fixing that.

Give it a try on your own first before asking for help.

laserlight,

Can you look over this and make sure everything is ok.


#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

void swap(char** first, char** second);

int somefunction()
{
if(....)
return value;
.
.
. // Some work here
.
.
}

I think I know, but not sure on the terminology. What is an inline return and how does it differ from a normal return.

Please give me some examples.

Something like this? I'm still messing around with it to get it working but would appreciate any hints or suggestions.


void readInputFile(FILE *input)
{
char *temp;
char username[80];
...

Is there a way to modify it to accept any number of elements? I had the bound set to 10 just to test it out.

Ok, I'm trying to change it up a bit to read from a file but I'm having issues. The function that I'm having trouble creating is readInputFile.

Thanks, I keep forgetting. I got it working.

Updated it a bit, but still have some issues. It's only sorting based on the first letter. So if I have 2 words that start with the same letter it won't sort correctly.


#include <stdio.h>...

No errors, just that it doesn't sort the names correctly.

original:
"Darin"
"David"
"Brian"
"Dog"
"Nikki"
"Aaron"
"Robert"

I had this working in C++ but wanted to get a C version. I'm pretty sure I'm getting lost with the pointers. I would appreciate any help.

I need some help understanding function pointers.

syntax:

int (*pt2Function)(float, char, char) = NULL;

I'm just confused on how to really use them and their usefulness.

nevermind, I got it working.

What do you mean?

I'm need some help initializing a pointer. Below is a segment of my code that I'm working on. The pointer that I need help with is subjectPtr.

So strcat(y, p+1) concatenates without the space at the beginning of p and strncat(y,p,1) concatenates the space at the end. And *p=0 sets where p is pointing to in memory to 0? And the loop will...

Can you explain this loop a bit for me?


while( p!=s )
if( strchr(delims,*--p) )
strcat(y,p+1),strncat(y,p,1),*p=0;


It's mainly the strcat line that I'm lost on because all of...

Thanks. I can see why that would be useful for this program.

What's the difference between calloc and malloc?

I would say use google and search for some reference code and give it a try. I'm in the process of learning C and was able to use google to make sure my syntax is fine and make a binary search tree....

Here's my final edits to get it working.

int main()
{
char a[] = "Dog eat Cat";
