C中的2-d Char数组异常输出

Question

I have this Piece of COde that store a string in a 2-d char array.IN my code i am using a 2x6 2-D char array.On providing a 12digit string LIKE > "COMEHOMEARUN". It should store it as
COMEHO
MEARUN
but I am getting the output as
COMEHM
MEARUN ...ie the value at [0]6] automatically gets the value of [1][0].

here's the code

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{
    char string[20];
    char aray[1][5];
    int i,j,k=0;
    gets(string);
    //storing the individual characters in the string in the form of 2x6 char array
    for(i=0;i<=1;i++)
    {
        for(j=0;j<=5;j++)
        {
            aray[i][j]=string[k];
            k++;
        }
    }
    //displaying the array Generated
    for(i=0;i<=1;i++)
    {
        for(j=0;j<=5;j++)
        {
            printf("%c ", aray[i][j]);
        }
        printf("\n");
    }
    getch();
}

Does anybody know where I am going wrong?

Answer 1

In a C array declaration like char array[N][M] , the N and M values are not "the highest valid index"; they mean "the number of values".

So your declaration

char aray[1][5];

defines an array sized 1x5, not 2x6 as you intend.

You need:

char aray[2][6];

But of course, the actual indexing is 0-based so for char aray[2][6] , the "last" element is at aray[1][5] .

Answer 2

您可以尝试将char aray[1][5]更改为char aray[2][6]

Answer 3

Your indexing is not correct.

When you declare any char array you have to give sufficient length. In your code you give the dimension 1 but it required 2.

Declare the array as:

   char array[2][6];

That will work.
