Reading integers from a text file to an array in C

[sarenameas]

I am attempting to put integers from a text file to an array. I am new to C. I have already found the number of lines and opened the file. I do not understand why this does not work:

for(i = 0; i <= numberlines; i++)
{
	fscanf(f, "%d", &z[i]);
}

The numbers in the text file are arranged as so:
4
251
3
-45
124

I want to scan all the numbers into array z[] except for the first one. I would paste my whole program attempt, but the remote desktop won't let me copy and paste back on to my original computer... I mean I just did it a couple of minutes ago.. it's being werid. But anyways back to the problem..

I want to do this without the use of "get" or "put", because my understanding of those functions are limited.

THANK YOU !

So what is it doing instead?

So what is it doing instead?

during debugging, z does not take on any of the values from the text file

I would guess the file did not open properly.

I would guess the file did not open properly.

I finally got to the remote desktop to let me copy and paste... please take look. I would really appreciate it. THANK YOU

First of all, newline is a very bad name for a counter. Maybe numLines would make more sense.
Use fgets() instead of fscanf() to read strings.
And isn't check a character array? All you are comparing is the address of check with the address of the constant string "\n". They will never be equal.
What are you trying to accomplish with this test?
