char count and assigning specific number to it

[fressanme]

im trying to create this crossout puzzle generator..ill try to upload my code later since i dont have it at the moment..but the problem im trying to look into is how to count the number of characters in a string..for example, the string "great" is supposed to output

g = 1;
r = 2;
e = 3;
a = 4;
t = 5;

sort of the syntax of char at in java.. =)

i need help on this one..tnx!

btw, im using bloodshed dev c++..

Hi,
strlen returns the length which in turn is Number of charecters in the string.
It counts spaces also.

Is this what u need?

Hi,
Check this code

int lnVar=0;
char lacArr[]="great";
for(lnVar=0;lnVar<strlen(lacArr);lnVar++)
{
printf("%c = %d;\n",lacArr[lnVar],lnVar)
}
 

The above code will print the characters and values as u desire like
g = 1;
r = 2;
e = 3;
a = 4;
t = 5;

Thanks
