HeadsorTails.This won't compile.. How come?

[Andrew Charbonneau]

include <stdio.h>

include <stdlib.h>

int main(void)
{
/ Initialize variables and function prototype/
unsigned int seed;
int heads = 0, tails = 0, tosses, k, x;

/* Get user inputs */
printf("Enter the number of tosses: \n");
scanf("%lf",&tosses);
printf("Enter a positive integer seed value: \n");
scanf("%u",&seed);
srand(seed);

/* Generate a certain number of tosses. */
for (k=1;k<=tosses;k++)
  x = rand()%2;
  if x = 1
    heads++;
  else
    tails++;

/* Print Outputs to screen */
printf("Number of Heads: %f and Number of tails: %f", heads, tails;

system ("PAUSE");
/* Exit Program */
return 0;

}

This syntax:

if x = 1

Is wrong on several levels, it is missing () around the condition, and it is using the wrong symbol

=

does assignments

==

does comparisons

it probably should look like

if (x == 1)

perhaps. There are other code errors. I think you are missing some

{}

ALSO,

printf("Number of Heads: %f and Number of tails: %f", heads, tails;

See anything missing here? Hint )

Your code doesn't compile because it has errors. Logical and syntactical.
