Case function in C

[Forenman]

Hi im having trouble getting my case function to work. I enter a number between 0-60 and it is meant to return a @your number is greater than x but less than y. It has to be done with switch statemtents but i dont know how to make this function. I am incrementing my for loop and trying to get it to work that way. Any ideas?

	#include <stdio.h>
void main(void)
{
	int y;
	double x, a, b, c, result;

	printf("Enter value for y: \n");
	scanf_s("%lf", &y);
	getchar();

	int counter;
	int min;
	int max;
	for (counter = 0; counter < 6; counter++) { // Incraments if statments up to 60
		min = counter * 10;						// Multiplys counter by 10
		max = (counter + 1) * 10;				// Allows counter up to 60
		if (y >= min && y < max)				// If statement for if its between 0<60
		{
			switch (y) {
			case 'A':
				printf("y is equal or greater than %d and smaller than %d", min, max);
				break;

			case 'B':
				printf("y is equal or greater than %d and smaller than %d", min, max);
				break;

			case 'C':
				printf("y is equal or greater than %d and smaller than %d", min, max);
				break;

			case 'D':
				printf("y is equal or greater than %d and smaller than %d", min, max);
				break;

			case 'F':
				printf("y is equal or greater than %d and smaller than %d", min, max);
				break;
			default:
				printf("Invalid number\n");
			}
		}
	}

	printf("\n Enter value for X:");	//Gets vlaue for x
	scanf_s("%lf", &x);				//Reads in value for x
	getchar();						//Waits for input
	printf("Enter value for A:");
	scanf_s("%lf", &a);
	getchar();
	printf("Enter value for B:");
	scanf_s("%lf", &b);
	getchar();
	printf("Enter value for C:");
	scanf_s("%lf", &c);
	getchar();

	result = (a * pow(x, 2)) + (b * x) + c;
}

case (argument): things to do until break;

ie.

case a<b : print out "hello"; break;

 

so in your example, you're comparing variable 'y' to see if it's an character 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', or 'F', you're not comparing it to see if the value is larger or smaller than certain things.

 

 

as for the rest of your program, no idea
