How to Convert: int to char* array

Projects Programming
1

Hello,

Im not getting any compiler errors,but i want to be sure ,would this be a valid conversion:

int degrees;
char * MOVE [1000] [2];
char Type0fMove[10] = { "LEFT TURN" }

MOVE [0][0] = (char*) degrees;
MOVE [0][1] = Type0fMove;

As i don't have an arduino at me currently , will i get from the serial monitor, if for instance degrees=90, this:

90 LEFT TURN

No I don't think your right but we do need to see the rest of your code.

int i=0; int j=0; int degree_prev,degree_now;
char* MOVES_MADE [1000][2];
void ROVER (int degree,char TypeOfMove[10]) { 
          i++;
          int steps=degree;
          int goal=0;
          HMC6352.Wake();
          degree_prev=HMC6352.GetHeading();
          if (Type0fMove == "RIGHT" ) {          
              MOVES_MADE[i][0] = (char*)degree;
              MOVES_MADE[i][1] = TypeOfMove;         
              while (goal < degree) {
                   MOVE.RIGHT(1);
                   degree_now=HMC6352.GetHeading();
                   if (degree_now - degree_prev >=0) goal = degree_now - degree_prev; 
                   else if (degree_now - degree_prev < 0) goal = 360 - degree_prev + degree_now;     //right
              }
          }
          else if ( TypeOfMove == "LEFT" ) {           
              MOVES_MADE[i][0] = (char*)degree;
              MOVES_MADE[i][1] = TypeOfMove;         
              while (goal < degree) {
                   MOVE.LEFT(1);
                   degree_now=HMC6352.GetHeading();
                   if (degree_prev-degree_now>=0) goal = degree_prev - degree_now; 
                   else if (degree_prev-degree_now < 0) goal = degree_prev + 360 - abs(degree_now);    //left
          }
          }
          else if ( TypeOfMove == "FORWARD" ) {        
              MOVES_MADE[i][0] = (char*)steps;
              MOVES_MADE[i][1] = TypeOfMove;
              MOVE.FORWARD(steps);
          }
          HMC6352.Sleep();
    
}

Ok so basically i wanted to make a function which moves my rover, im using my own library so the "MOVE.LEFT(90)" is just me saying the rover to move left (in delays); Since i want to make it do precise moves im using the HMC6352 magnetometer.

The issue at hand , i want to save every move the rover makes and then from a different function make it go back to its original position. My only concer is the char* MOVES_MADE [1000][2]; array, i want to store in the first column the amount of degrees (int) and on the second column the type of move, how will i store an int to char* array ?

As i dont have really thought it through,
Should i maybe change the logic behind the saving the moves ?

I just want to use one function in this case ROVER(int,char*) in my main loop. Whenever i call it i want two things:

  1. The rover to make precise moves
  2. Saving its move

Thank you!
