How to have multiple lines inside a char array in C?-CodePudding

I want to have a array with multiple lines, but as my code sample shows, the C code doesn't recognize the ", also depending on the IDE the code is having a diferrent behavior, I tried change the inside " for ' but it doesn't work too

char palavra2 [] = "{Conversor de Temperatura: °C -> °F}
                        prg Exemplo_02;
                        {Declaração de variáveis}
                        var
                          int c;
                          float f;
                        {Programa principal}
                          begin
                          write("Informe a temperatura em °C: ");
                          read(c);
                          f <- 1.8 * C - 32;
                          write("O correspondente em Fahrenheit é: ", f);
                        end."

CodePudding user response：

Your string cannot span multiple line like this. The two good options are:

char palavra2[] = "{Conversor de Temperatura: °C -> °F}\n\
prg Exemplo_02;\n\
  ...";

or:

char palavra2 [] =
   "{Conversor de Temperatura: °C -> °F}\n"
   "prg Exemplo_02;\n"
   "...";

You can, of course, store your string in a file and open/read it into a string.

The next c standard (c23) includes an #embed feature to include arbitrary data from an external file.
