Help with Program - Label Sorting Program

[Mankthetank19]

Hello again, I had to do four programming assignments and this is my forth one. I was given the code and I have checked the code over twice and I continue to receive errors when I try to compile the program. I have attached the code. I am just trying to find out what is wrong since this was the code the professor provided me with. Thanks for the assistance! Sorry for the long code.

*edit - can someone please tell me how to attach the code in a window like I have seen on this site a few times? Thanks

could you try re-attaching your code...Thanks Gerard4143

Sorry about that - I was trying to put the code in a window instead of copying and pasting. I saw your post about AMD and was wondering how to put the code in a separate window. Thanks for the quick response.

[gerard4143]

use the # quick button in the editor to wrap code tags around selected text...Hope this helps...Gerard4143

[gerard4143]

I compiled/ran you code...its just some typing errors and omissions...that is to say it ran, I not sure it will produce the proper outcome because I don't know the programs purpose...Gerard4143

Do you mean in the terminal or in the edit my post section

[gerard4143]

Here's the corrected code...it will compile and run but like I said I'm not sure if it will produce the proper results...Gerard4143

when you click add new thread or reply to post in linux forums you will be presented with a small editor, one of the quick buttons on the editor is the # button(note if you put the mouse pointer over it, it will display "wrap [code] tags around selected text")
Just click this and enter your code between the tags...Hope this helps Gerard4143


P.S Welcome to the Linux Forums

[Mankthetank19]

Thanks for the assistance and informing me of the # icon - I got it to work now lol

After looking over your code - I was able to see my mistakes but I am still not able to compile. I get the error below.

I decided to not use the #define False 0 in the first part of the code.

[dmank@localhost ~]$ gcc -o lab3c lab3c.c
lab3c.c: In function ‘sort’:
lab3c.c:162: error: ‘FALSE’ undeclared (first use in this function)
lab3c.c:162: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
lab3c.c:162: error: for each function it appears in.)

[Mankthetank19]

Nevermind - I got it working

Thanks for the assitance and the welcome to the forums gerard.

Can you explain the reason to define FALSE???
