I had a typo when checking for character zero, meant '\0' but write '0'. And to top it off, I think that check was unnecessary (included it before I had hard grid bounds), so it wasn't doing anything but introducing the bug
I'll get back to it once the queue clears, and hopefully that was the only thing wrong. Thanks for taking a look though!

Thanks for the update. Fantastic work! Glad your debugging went well.

Let us know how it goes.

Got it now, thanks. I suppose now I'll be more careful about character zero. I like to use '\0' since it stands out more as a special value in the code, if that makes any sense. But it makes that sort of typo possible, so maybe it's not a great idea.

Glad you figured it out. Well done!
In regards to the zero character. That's represented by
What you wrote above is the null character

Right, I meant ASCII null. I guess calling it "character zero" is confusing. Then again this is also null: ?

why getting WA, checked with critical input in uDebug, please help, thanks in advance
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
int main()
{
char a[125][125];
int i=0,j,k=0,x=0,maxi=0;
//freopen("in.txt","r",stdin);
for(i = 0; i < 125;i++)
{
for(j = 0; j < 125;j++)
a[j] = ' ';
}
i=0;
while(gets(a))
{
x=strlen(a);
if(x>maxi)
maxi=x;
i++;
}
while(k<maxi)
{
j=i;
while(j--)
{
printf("%c",a[j][k]);
}
k++;
printf("\n");
}
return 0;
}

You are printing extra spaces. Your Output
Code: Select all
"R
Ie
n
te
h <-extra space here
iD
ne
kc
,a
r
tt
he
es
r <-extra space here
eo
fn
oc
re
e <-extra space here
s
Ia
i
ad
m,
. <-extra space here

I think it will be good if you remove all your codes after getting accepted.

how could it be extra space, i have checked it in uDebug, it provide the same answer, also with the critical input of uDebug, that was same too. It is said to print the sentence same to same including spaces just by rotate it. So i can't figure out the problem

Yes, you are right. Just add one line
Code: Select all
while(j--)
{
if (a[j][k] == '\0') a[j][k] = ' ';
printf("%c",a[j][k]);
}
Input
Acc. Output
For this input your program is printing '\0' character at the beginning of 4th, 5th. If you run your code on
http://www.ideone.com it may not be visible, but it can be seen on
http://www.compileonline.com
Strings "ffff" and "ggg" end with '\0', not space. So you could also add one line
Code: Select all
while(gets(a[i]))
{
x=strlen(a[i]);
a[i][x] = ' ';
if(x>maxi) maxi=x;
i++;
}
Don't forget to remove all your codes after getting accepted.

Please help,
what's wrong with my code, getting WA...

Post in existing threads. Don't open new thread. Use search box by problem number (490).
Make your array
s[105][105] global. When it is local there is no guarantee that initiallly it is filled with '\0'.
Or you can initialize it yourself
Code: Select all
char s[105][105];
memset(s, 0, sizeof(s));
It will be good if you remove all your codes after getting accepted.

NAbdulla, i checked both ways i posted and now i got accepted with your code fourth time.
Problems with copy/paste?
Submit code from your post above, not from your pc.
