Title: Code Blocks won't read in files correctly
Post by: bassmasta79 on September 12, 2012, 03:37:47 am

Hello I am having trouble with Code Blocks reading in files on my laptop. I have been trying to get it to work and am using a simple program to print out a number from a file, and even at the lowest level, Code Blocks seems to have trouble. I think it is a problem with my laptop though, as the exact same code works on other computers.

int main(){
    FILE * ifp;
    int num, i;

    ifp = fopen("numbers.txt", "r");
    fscanf(ifp, "%d", &num);
    printf("%d", num);

return;
}

I am on windows using latest version of code blocks and the text file is in the same location as the C file.

Off topic. But, I suggest putting the text file in the same folder as the created exe file.
