So, I was writing this code for counting the digit frequency i.e. the number of times the digits from 0-9 has appeared in a user inputted string(alphanumeric). So, I took the string, converted into integer and tried to store the frequency in "count" and print it but when I run the code, count is never getting incremented and the output comes all 0s. Would be grateful if anyone points out in which part my logic went wrong.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main() {
// takes string input
char *s;
s = malloc(1024 * sizeof(char));
scanf("%[^\n]", s);
s = realloc(s, strlen(s) + 1);
//turns the string to int
int x = atoi(s);
int temp = x, len = 0;
//calculates string length
while (x != 0) {
x = x / 10;
len++;
}
x = temp;
//parses through the string and matches digits with each number
for (int j = 0; j < 10; j++){
int count = 0;
for(int i = 0; i < len; i++){
if(x % 10 == j){
count++;
}
x = x / 10;
}
x = temp;
printf("%d ", count);
}
return 0;
}
To write a correct and reasonable digit-counting program:
getchar
) indicates end-of-file or a problem, or, if desired, returns a new-line or other character you wish to use as an end-of-input indication.
