c++ - invalid conversion from `const char*' to `char*' -
#include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <conio.h> #define size 20 int main( void ) { int n; //number of characters compared char s1[ size ], s2[ size ]; char *results_word; printf( "enter 2 strings: " ); gets( s1 ); gets( s2 ); printf( "\nenter number of characters compared: " ); scanf( "%d", &n );
the problem starts here
results_word = strncmp( s1, s2, n ) > 0 ? " greater " : strncmp( s1, s2, n ) == 0 ? " equal " : " smaller " ; printf( "\n%sis%s%s", s1, results_word, s2 ); getche(); return 0; }//end function main
so why doesn't result_word corresponding string ?
the c++ error message getting says all:
invalid conversion `const char*' `char*'
you trying assign constant "<literal>"
non constant results_word
.
change
char *results_word;
to
const char *results_word;
and work.
