C program about transfering character to number

[thomson101]

The result of this program is

show 6 of the character that i input
and transfer it into number
and finally sum of the numbers

what should be show:
Please input Result 1 -> A
Please input Result 2 -> B
Please input Result 3 -> C
Please input Result 4 -> D
Please input Result 5 -> E
Please input Result 6 -> F

Result 1 -> A -> 5
Result 2 -> B -> 4
Result 3 -> C -> 3
Result 4 -> D -> 2
Result 5 -> E -> 1
Result 6 -> F -> 0

after transformation, the total point obtained is 15.


Write your question here.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <ctype.h>


int toPoint(char r){
        int thePoint;

        r=toupper(r);

        switch(r){
        case 'A':
        thePoint = 5;
        break;
        case 'B':
        thePoint = 4;
        break;
        case 'C':
        thePoint = 3;
        break;
        case 'D':
        thePoint = 2;
        break;
        case 'E':
        thePoint = 1;
        break;
        case 'F':
        thePoint = 0;
        break;



        }
        return thePoint;
}


int main(){
        int total = 0;
        int i;
        int k;
        int x;
        char *grade;

        grade =(char *) malloc(6* sizeof(char));

        for(i=0; i<=5; i++){
            printf("Please input Result %d -> ", i+1);
            scanf(" %c", grade +i);
            printf("\n");
        }

        for (k=0; k<=5; k++){

// what do you mean set up to pass pointer?   i have placed char r for passing the value 
//is it work?     
//and i wanted to add the points up, so i do  x++,  is it some other way better?  
              x = toPoint(grade);

            printf("Result %d -> %c -> %d", k+1, grade, x+k);
            printf("\n");
                 total = x++;
                      


        }
          
      printf("After transformation, the total point obtained is %d", total);

}

I don't know why i can never transform the character, and of course cant get the total.

I tried many other things, still dont have any clues.

On line 54 you are passing a pointer to a function that isn't set up to handle that. On line 63 I know my compiler would complain about Printf with the capital 'P'. In your toPoint function you have all cases returning an int 5.

sorry the switch was wrong version.
