char ***word = calloc(numwords, sizeof(char **));
for(i = 0; i != numwords; i++) {
word[i] = calloc(maxlength, sizeof(char *));
}
You've got one too many levels of indirection. You are storing a list of words. A word is a char *
, so a list of words would be char **
.
char **word = calloc(numwords, sizeof(char *));
for (i = 0; i != numwords; i++) {
word[i] = calloc(maxlength, sizeof(char));
}
This will then necessitate changes to the rest of your code. You can get rid of j
entirely. This:
for(j=0;j<30;){
word[i][j]=&line[j];
j++;
}
Becomes:
strcpy(word[i], line);
And this:
j=0;
printf("\n%s",word[i][j]);
fprintf(fp,"%s",word[i][j]);
i++;
Becomes:
printf("%s\n", word[i]);
fprintf(fp, "%s\n", word[i]);
