You can not use char 8* to store digits directly because it is a pointer to a location that stores digits not a place to store digits.

You would have to do it indirectly

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. char *pDigits;
  2. int i;
  3.  
  4. pDigits = malloc(11);
  5.  
  6. for( i=0; i<10; i++)
  7. {
  8.     pDigits[i] = (char)('0' + i);
  9. }
  10.  
  11. pDigits[10] = '\0';
  12.  
  13. printf("Digits: %s\n", pDigits);
  14.
