    Re: C preallocating an array to zero not working

    Code:
    counts[letter]
    ??

    Your index variable is i - not letter.
    letter runs from 65 (i = 0) .... 91 (i = 26).

    There is no problem with the allocation - it's the printing that's messed up.

    When posting code in future - use the code tags (the # button on the toolbar), rather than posting a screen shot .

    Also - can you mark this thread as solved - go to Thread Tools.
    Tony - Happy to try to help.
    Unless otherwise stated - all code posted by me is untested. Remember to Mark the Thread as Solved.

    BTW, to keep it more readable, you could've also done:
    Code:
    letter = i + 'A';
    just so that it's explicitly stated what you're trying to do
