If statements not working?

Question

I am a noob at programming. I just wanted to ask what is wrong with the following code:

scanf(\"%i\", &battlechoice);

printf(\"BCHOICE WAS:%i\\n\", batt         


        

Answer 1

You're confusing the assignment operator = with the equals operator ==. Write this instead:

if (battlechoice == 4)

And so on.

Some C programmers use "Yoda conditionals" to avoid accidentally using assignment in these cases:

if (4 == battlechoice)

For example this won't compile, catching the mistake:

if (4 = battlechoice)
