How to read a text file into an array

[Prisms]

I am trying to read a text file into an array and I'm having some trouble doing so. here is the code that I have so far. Any help would be much appreciated.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#define MAX_ROW 15
#define MAX_COL 6


int main()
{
	FILE* numbers;
	int x;
	int ary[MAX_ROW][MAX_COL];
	
	
	numbers = fopen("extradata.txt", "r+");
	
	while (!feof(numbers))
	{
		fscanf(numbers, "%d", &x);
		ary[MAX_ROW][MAX_COL] = x;
	}
	
	fclose(numbers);
	
	for(int row; row<MAX_ROW; row++)
	{
		printf("\n");
		
		for(int col; col<MAX_COL; col++)
		{
			printf("%3d", ary[row][col]);
		}
	}
	return 0;
}

The same array element is being overwritten.
That is element [MAX_ROW][MAX_COL] = x;

You need to increment the rows and columns as you read the data in.

Your while loop should change.
Make changes as code green mentioned.

Protect yourself from text files that contain more numbers than will fit in the array.

I don't use fscanf in my code, so I'm not familiar with it. Do successive calls to fscanf start scanning from the character that terminated the prior fscanf or do they start scanning from the start of the next line of text? I didn't find anything in the man pages that answered this question.

Thanks I'll give it a try
