[Dev-C++] recursion function in C

[Kenneth C. <ken...@ho...>]

what's wrong with the following code as it is not working.

if (c> dCol && sq[r][c - 1] != '#' && sq[r][c - 1] != ' ') {
        if (sq[r][c] == ' ' && sq[r][c + 1] != ' ') {
           spmtn1(r, c - 1);
        }
     }
     if (c> dCol && sq[r][c - 1] != '#' && sq[r][c - 1] != ' ') {
        if (sq[r][c] == ' ' && sq[r][c + 1] == ' ') {
           if ((sq[r][c]>= sq[r][c + 1] && sq[r][c - 1]>= sq[r][c]) || (sq[r][c] <= sq[r][c + 1] && sq[r][c - 1] <= sq[r][c])) {
              spmtn1(r, c - 1);
           }
        }
     }
else
if (c < dCol && sq[r][c + 1] != '#' && sq[r][c + 1] != ' ') { -->if this line is false then jump to the next else if, but if it is true
        if (sq[r][c] == ' ' && sq[r][c - 1] != ' ') {-->if this line is true then execute the statement, the below if statements won't be executed, but if it is false
           spmtn1(r, c + 1);
        }
     }
        if (c < dCol && sq[r][c + 1] != '#' && sq[r][c + 1] != ' ') {-->as this line still remain as true, same first if statement as above
        if (sq[r][c] == ' ' && sq[r][c - 1] == ' ') {-->if the above second if statement is false then this line will always be true
           if ((sq[r][c]>= sq[r][c - 1] && sq[r][c + 1]>= sq[r][c]) || (sq[r][c] <= sq[r][c - 1] && sq[r][c + 1] <= sq[r][c])) {-->then check this line, if it is true then execute the statement, if it is false then jump to the next else if
              spmtn1(r, c + 1);
           }
        }
        }
else
if
