printf("Enter to strings: ");
gets(str1);
gets(str2);
int i,j,l,m;
for(i=0;i<5;i++)
for(j=0;str[i][j]!='\0';j++)
{
int a=0;
for(l=j,m=0;str1[m]!='\0';l++,m++)
{
if(str[i][l]!=str1[m])
{
a = 1;
break;
}
}
if(a==0)

Answer 1

Then i dont know...in VSC15 i cant use just gets :)
And now i even test it, if i use gets_s works fine, you should provide more info about the error,IDE, i dont know!
Do you get an error code or something?

Answer 2

Hello! Change gets with gets_s :) probably that is the problem, if doesnt solve your problem you should tell us what error do you get, but i think my solution gonna work :)

Good luck!

Answer 3

How you know the code works if you open the exe..
Why you open the exe? run/compile it from the IDE..

And i wont give you anymore tips ,because you dont want to povide more info on your problem..

Answer 5

I didn't open the exe. after compile it runs exe

Answer 6

Answer 7

codeblocks

Answer 8
