printing double array formatting trouble

Mar 28th, 2006

Hi guys inside the double array it holds '?' character.

How would i do the format printing to print it like this

ithe user input variable is the size variable
if 5 is typed in it suppose to print 5 rows and columns and print 2 rows and columns if i entered 2.

for example
user inputs 2

+---+---+
| '?' | '?' |
+---+---+
| '?' | '?'|
+---+---+

it has to print the grid like this and im havin trouble with the formatting

Do you need to print the grid as well as the array contents? If so, it takes a smidge more work.

for ( i = 0; i < limit; i++ ) {
    /* Print a grid line */
    for ( j = 0; j < limit; j++ )
      printf ( "+---" );
    printf ( "+\n|" );
 
    /* Print the row */
    for ( j = 0; j < limit; j++ )
      printf ( "'%c'|", grid[i][j] );
    putchar ( '\n' );
  }
 
  /* Print the last grid line */
  for ( j = 0; j < limit; j++ )
    printf ( "+---" );
  printf ( "+\n|" );
for ( i = 0; i < limit; i++ ) {
    /* Print a grid line */
    for ( j = 0; j < limit; j++ )
      printf ( "+---" );
    printf ( "+\n|" );

    /* Print the row */
    for ( j = 0; j < limit; j++ )
      printf ( "'%c'|", grid[i][j] );
    putchar ( '\n' );
  }

  /* Print the last grid line */
  for ( j = 0; j < limit; j++ )
    printf ( "+---" );
  printf ( "+\n|" );
