Error: Conversion to non-scalar type requested

Question

I\'m having a small problem trying to malloc this struct. Here is the code for the structure:

typedef struct stats {                  
    int strength;                  


        

Answer 1

malloc returns a pointer, so probably what you want is the following:

dungeon* d1 = malloc(sizeof(dungeon));

Here is what malloc looks like:

void *malloc( size_t size );

As you can see it return void*, however you shouldn't cast the return value.
