1,581 PointsObjective-C Basics: Print the Results
I am a total newb to all of this, your help would be greatly appreciated! I can't figure out how to do this, these are the instructions:
Print the results. Your output should look like "letters a b".
This is what I have so far...
char alpha = 'a'; char bravo = 'b';
char letters[2]; letters[0] = alpha; letters[1] = bravo;
printf(letters a %c\n", 'b';)

19,878 PointsIn your printf(), you have the semi-colon inside the arguments. It should be after the (), not in between them. You should probably be using %c both times as well, so letters %c %c instead of a %c. After the "", you need to specify where it gets the information from, in this case the variable 'letters', and since you're storing the information in arrays you need to specify which spot it's in. Remember, arrays start at 0. The alpha variable stores a, which is being stored in letters[0], and bravo stores b, which is being held in *letters[1]. I haven't been through this course yet, but hopefully this helps. This is the complete code:
char alpha = 'a'; char bravo = 'b';
char letters[2]; letters[0] = alpha; letters[1] = bravo;
printf(letters %c %c\n", letters[0], letters[1] );
