Array Problem

[srinidelite]

Hello Everbody,

I have 2 arrays called

Array 1                                                       Array 2

Stuid      stuname                                   stuid              Bookname
1            Albie                                       1                   OOPS
2            Morkel                                      2                   CNA
3            Jmes                                        1                   ComputerNw
                                                         3                   OOPs
                                                         2                   CNA

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
//  char array1[2][1],array2[5][1];
    char array1[100][100]={'ID1','srini','ID2','Albie','ID3','Kaasi'};
    char array2[50][100]={'ID1','OOPS','ID2','STS','ID1','STS','ID1','CTC','ID3','MAT','ID2','MAT'};
    printf("We're Begining the Comaprison Here !!\n\n");

    search(array1[][],array2[][]);
}

    void search(char arr1[100][100],char arr2[100][100])
    {       int x = sizeof(arr1); int y = sizeof(arr2);
            for(int j=0;j<y;j++)
            {   int count = 0;
                for(int k=0;k<x;k++)
                {
                    if(arr1[j][0] == arr2[k][0])
                    {
                        count += 1;
                    }
                    printf("StudentID\t : BooksTanken\t");
                    printf("%c \t\t %d \t\n",arr1[j][0],count);
                }

            }
    }

Here i have to find Which student how many books taken from the Library..
I wrote the Program but i'm unable to execute
Experts pls Help Me to Figure Out the Problem

And Let me Know if i'm doing something wrong in arrays!

Thanks in Advance,
Srini

1. line 9: when calling a function do not include the [] in the parameter list
   search(array1,array2);

2. line 13: sizeof does not work for pointers and arrays declared as parameters. sizeof(array1) will always be 4 in 32-bit compilers because array1 is a pointer, not an actual array. sizeof only works with arrays in the same function in which the array is declared, main() in your program. The way to do it is to first declare a macro at the beginning of the program with the desired size, then use that throughout the program. For example `#define SIZE 100

HI Ancient Dragon,

Thanks for the Reply i was able to understand the first one but in the second i couldn't
Let me say clearly, i want to find the each array length so that i could run the For Loop upto the length of the array
that's what i'm looking for .....

These are the Error Reports i'm getting while Running,

*hey there ,
1.you can not initialize a 2d array like this...!!!!!!!!

char array1[100][100]={'ID1','srini','ID2','Albie','ID3','Kaasi'};
> char array2[50][100]={'ID1','OOPS','ID2','STS','ID1','STS','ID1','CTC','ID3','MAT','ID2','MAT'}

You can initialize it as follows:

char array1[3][2]={
                                    {'ID1','srini'},
                                    {'ID2','Albie'},
                                    {'ID3','Kaasi'}};

            char array2[6][2]={
                                    {'ID1','OOPS'},
                                    {'ID2','STS'},
                                    {'ID1','STS'},
                                    {'ID1','CTC'},
                                    {'ID3','MAT'},
                                    {'ID2','MAT'}};

it will also give you following error
" error C2015: too many characters in constant..."
because each element can hold only one charecter at each position in the charecter type arra*
