I have the following code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<string.h>
int main() {
char v[]= {'Brasil', 'Alemanha', Japão'};
int i = 0;
for (i=0; i<4; i++){
printf("%s", v[i]);
}
}
However, when I compile opens the terminal and the message appears:
paises.exe stopped working
What's wrong?
The code has several errors.
Strings should be delimited by double and non-single quotation marks that are reserved only to delimit a character.
You are creating an array of strings , but you are declaring an array of characters. With the modification I've done, I'm creating an array from pointers to char which is exactly what produces a string . In case the compiler will allocate all three strings in a static area and will put a pointer to those strings in the array .
The loop is reading one more item than it exists, if there are 3, it has to go to 2, since the first one starts at 0.
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void) {
char *v[] = { "Brasil", "Alemanha", "Japão" };
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
printf("%s\n", v[i]);
}
}
