problem in program for counting no of chars using pointers


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi all, I was trying to make a program which counts number of chars in a string using concpt of pointers. Following is the code:

#include
#include

void main()
{
char *ptr1;
int ctr=0;
clrscr();

printf("Enter the string");
gets(ptr1);
while(1)
{

if(*ptr1!='/O')

{ *++ptr1; // *ptr1++;
ctr++;}
if(*ptr1 ='')
{
break;}
}
printf("Total chars are %d",ctr+1);
getch();
}

Above program compiles w/o errors but gives 2 warnings :
Line 14: Constant out of range in comparison.
Line 18: Possibly incorrect assignment.

I think I code it perfectly and I fail to interpret these warnings.
Note: If I execute the program ignoring the warning then once I pass the string the system comes to an halt and to come out I have to press ctrl+Pause break.
Pls help me to fix the error.....

Thanks
