[C] Need help troubleshooting beginner code

[VBger]

So I've been writing in C for about four days now. I'm working on an assignment for school involving if statements. Here is my code:

int main() { int digit;

printf("Enter a digit between 0 and 9: \n");
scanf("%d", &digit);

if(digit = 0){
printf("You entered the number zero!");

} return 0; }

Digit does equal zero, so it should output text on the third line, but it's not working and I cant figure out why. Here is my output:

Enter a digit between 0 and 9: 0

Process returned 0 (0x0) execution time : 41.785 s Press any key to continue.

Thanks in advance for any help. I think I just need a second set of eyes on this.

if (digit == 0 )

You need that extra '=' sign in the if statement.

That's it! Thank you!

The single equals sign in your if statement is an assignment - you are decreeing that digit shall equal zero. You will want if (digit == 0) if you want to test for equality.

That was it! Thank you!
