Concatenation

[Master Mascus]

printf("\n  How much you tickets you want to bet(Rs20 per ticket): ");
   scanf("%i",&bet);
   
   int x=0;
   for (x=0;x<bet;x++)
      {
      printf("\n  Enter the 6 numbers ( 1 - 40): ");
      // int num/*concatenate x */[100]
       
  
    for( i=0;i<6;i++)                    

        scanf("%d",&num/*concatenate x */[i]);             // Storing the values inserted into array num 
   }

Suppose i got this code, i want to create an array for each player to insert their numbers,i want to name the array as num1, num2,num3....

how do i concatenate the value to the array name ?

You don't want to do it that way. Use an array instead, where you would otherwise be tempted for name1, name2, name3, ..., nameN variables:

int (*tickets)[6] = malloc(bet * sizeof *tickets);

for (int x = 0; x < bet; x++) {
    printf("Enter the 6 numbers ( 1 - 40): : ");
    fflush(stdout);
    
    for (int i = 0; i < 6; i++)
        scanf("%d", &tickets[x][i]);
}

...

free(tickets); /* Don't forget to release memory when you're done */

did u use a 2-dimensional array ??

tickets[x] ?

[Master Mascus]

and can u tel me wat these 2 lines do

fflush(stdout);

int (*tickets)[6] = malloc(bet * sizeof *tickets);

did u use a 2-dimensional array ??

I used something close enough.

fflush(stdout);

The output stream's internal buffer is only flushed in three cases:

• The buffer is full.
• A newline character is written.
• fflush() is called on the stream.

Since you don't have control over when the buffer becomes full, the only two ways the programmer can force a flush is by writing a newline or calling fflush(). If the behavior isn't conducive to writing a newline, such as an interactive prompt where input should be on the same line as the prompt, the only option is calling fflush().

The reason I do this is that without a flush there's no guarantee that the prompt will be shown before scanf() blocks for input. In other words, the user won't know what to do.

int (*tickets)[6] = malloc(bet * sizeof *tickets);

I'm basically allocating memory for a two dimensional array. The second dimension is fixed at 6, so the type is a pointer to an array rather than a pointer to a pointer. This avoids making subsequent calls to malloc() for the second dimension, which is what would work best if the size of both dimensions were a runtime quantity:

int **tickets = malloc(bet * sizeof *tickets);

for (int x = 0; x < bet; x++)
    tickets[x] = malloc(n * sizeof *tickets[x]);

Hey mate, the codes worked well for the single player mode..
But when i implement the multi player mode, im having a problem..

// Defining the single function   
int single()
{
   system ("cls");                           // Clear the screen 
   
   display();                               // Calling the display function
   
   printf("\n  How much you tickets you want to bet (Rs20 per ticket): ");
   scanf("%i",&bet);
   
   int (*tickets)[6] = malloc(bet * sizeof *tickets);
   
   for ( x = 0; x < bet; x++) 
    {
        printf("\n  Enter the 6 numbers ( 1 - 40): : ");
        fflush(stdout);
         
        for ( i = 0; i < 6; i++)
        scanf("%d", &tickets[x][i]);
    }
    
   system ("cls");                       // Clear the screen 
   
   printf ("\n");

The problem is that in the multi player mode, the program will ask the user how many players there are, then it will the loop the single player mode function for the "number of players" times..

I tried to put the loop, but its not working coz of the 2-D array i think.. can u chek it plss..

I tried to put the loop, but its not working coz of the 2-D array i think..

My suggestion would be to read the errors and warnings that are most certainly being thrown.

[Master Mascus]

In function `single':
258 `tickets' undeclared (first use in this function)
(Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
for each function it appears in.)

This error was produced..

[Narue]

Where do you declare tickets and where do you use it? Consider the following reproduction of your error:

{
    int tickets;
}

tickets = 0; // Error: 'tickets' undeclared

[Master Mascus]

Where do you declare tickets and where do you use it? Consider the following reproduction of your error:

{
    int tickets;
}

tickets = 0; // Error: 'tickets' undeclared

this line int (*tickets)[6] = malloc(players * sizeof *tickets);, the problem is that its being declared in a function but if i put it in a nested loop it will end when the loop end..
and its if is need below after the loop, it wont be recognise.. is there a way to as if declare it as a global variable ?

[Master Mascus]

ahhh these code are making sick...

@narue can u find a solution to the following plss :$

The problem is that in the multi player mode, the program will ask the user how many players there are, then it will the loop the single player mode function for the "number of players" times..

I tried to put the loop, but its not working coz of the 2-D array i think.. can u chek it plss..
