C program that displays shapes. Keep getting errors.

Sun Oct 10, 2010 11:10 pm

Here is my program. I've been working on it for over 20 hours and am really frustrated. It asks the user for input and then prints a shape of a certain length. The errors I get when I compile are:

Code:: shape.c: In function main: shape.c:22: error: expected identifier or before int shape.c:58: error: expected expression before return shape.c:59: error: expected expression before } token shape.c:59: error: expected expression before } token

Please help! Thank you!

Code:: #include<stdio.h> int main() { while(1>0){ char shape; char s,h,f; shape='s'; shape='h'; shape='f'; int row; printf("Enter shape type (s/h/f):"); scanf("%c",&shape); printf("Enter shape length: "); scanf("%d",&row); if(row<=0) printf("Shape length cannot be negative. Try again\n"); } for(int s=1,int h=2,int f=3){ switch(s,h,f) { case 1: {int i,row; for(i=row;i>=1;i--) printf("*\n"); break;} case 2: {int i,j,k,row,m; m=row; for(i=1 ; i<=m; i++) { for (j=1 ; j>=row; j--) printf(" "); {for(k=1; k<=i; k=k+1) printf("*"); printf("\n");}} break;} case 3: {int i,j,k,row,m; m=row; for(i=0;i<m;i++) { printf("\n"); for(k=0;k<row;k++) printf(" "); for(j=0;j<=i;j++) printf(" *"); row--; } printf("\n"); break;} default: break; }} return(0); }
