For some reason that I can't comprehend ,this program keeps looping when I execute it in the CMD.
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
char array [] = {'b','f','r','o','a','u','v','t','o','\0'};
int grootteArray = sizeof(array);
int grootteChar = sizeof(char);
int lengteArray = grootteArray / grootteChar;
int i;
for (i = 0; i < lengteArray + 1; i + 2) {
printf("%c", array[i]);
}
return 0;
}
Your counter variable remains the same after each loop. You need to increase it by assigning the new value:
for (i=0; i<lengteArray+1; i=i+2) //change to this
Because i never changes. You should assign i + 2 to i:
for (i=0; i<lengteArray+1; i = i + 2) {
↑
The way you wrote it has no effect on the value of i, it just calculates i + 2 and does nothing with this value.
You're getting infinite loop because i is set to 0 and it's always 0.. So once i < legteArray + 1, it'll remain like that.
i + 2 never changes the original variable. It just computes the result and discards it.The value of i is never changed.
try this:-
for (i=0; i<lengteArray+1; i = i+2) {
i is not modifying in you loop. Also i < lengteArray + 1 will lead you to print garbage value and undefined behavior.
for (i = 0; i < lengteArray; i++){
printf("%c", array[i]);
}
If you are interested in incrementing i by 2 in each iteration then you can use i += 2
for (i = 0; i < lengteArray; i += 2){
printf("%c", array[i]);
}
