Why are you using an array? Just read from stdin and use getchar() https://en.m.wikibooks.org/wiki/C_Programming/C_Reference/stdio.h/getchar

>>57650363
Have it run through until it encounters the end of string character, I think its \0

>>57650819
we have to for the assignment

>>57650363
Also Z->A and not whatever unprintable character is after.

Encryption is for spooge ovaltine drinking fagots. I could publish my pin number. God is perfectly just. It's busywork bullshit for catle

I see. Use a for loop that checks if the index is less than the array size AND if the current char is different from '\0'

Allocate some initial size, say 256 characters. Keep a size_t for how big array is currently. Until done reading input, Write input into array, if you hit the end allocate a new array of twice previous size and copy all the data into it and then keep writing input

Like this?

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>


int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    char in[10];
    char ceasar[10];
    puts("Input plz: ");
    scanf("%9s", in);
    for (int i = 0; i < strlen(in); ++i) {
        ceasar[i] = in[i] + 3;  // modulo blabla
    }
    ceasar[9] = 0;
    printf("%s\n", ceasar);
}

Ok, I'm in good mood today, so I'll help you.
1. Per convention, a C-style string ends when a '\0' character is found. Keep scanning until you either find the end of the string or a '\0'. Otherwise ugly things might happen. Using a "while" loop is the right direction to take.
2. Try to avoid scanf to get string values. Use fgets instead, like this. (If you want to know what's stdin, it's basically using the console as input)

char whereillstorestuff[80];
fgets(whereillstorestuff, 80, stdin);

3. Think in what happens if your character is 'z'. It doesn't turn itself into an 'a' if you increment it by one. Be careful.

gtfo CIA nigger

char* input = calloc(char, 1);
char input_character = 0;
while((input_character = getchar())  != '\n')
     asprintf(&input, "%s%c", input, input_character);
[\code]
Something like this may work well for getting input, sorry if there are any mistakes I'm on mobile.

if I want to use parameters shall I use :

int main(int ac, char **av)

Or :

int main(int ac, char *av[])
is there any difference ??

>>57651616
no difference really, but call it argc and argv

>>57651616
None.
An array is a pointer after all. For example, doing:

char thisthing[] = "Some string";
putchar(thisthing[0]);

is the same as

char thisthing[] = "Some string";
putchar(*thisthing);

Why don't you learn the basics of programming clean code before you make a soup mess of big boy programs?

Your code looks like shit, I cant imagine trying to read through it if you implemented any sort of non retard algorithm.

>>57651680
hm why is it so important ? I find quicker to just give it a shorter name, thanks.
