My program loops forever and does only a half of what I told it to do

Question

I\'m new to programming and I started to make my own Fire Emblem level up calculator, but for some reason it loops infinitely. I can\'t find an answer. Could you look for an

Answer 1

You have two major problems which may cause compilation error.

nr+1;
level-1;

You have to assign them into some variable. Try this:

nr = nr+1;

or

nr++;

and

level = level -1;

or

level--;

now the while loop is not going to loop infinite.

Second problem is

if (cha[6] = 'Dieck' )

Note that, = is an assignment operator, not an equal operator. Equal operator looks like double equal ==. As you want to compare whether cha is equal to Dieck or not, try this:

if (strcmp (cha, "Dieck") == 0)

But you need to include #include for that.
