Following code: The instance it hits the scanf statement for my character value/type all hell breaks loose program instantly shuts down, no error codes, no nothing. I feel like I'm loosing it. I cannot seem to figure out what the issue could be, I don't have any random break statements or anything that should shut down the code. PLEASE HELP
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
char type;
int value=0;
printf("Enter Shape Choice: 1 Inverted triangle, 2 Square, 3 Slope, 4 Diamond with Marked Edges\n");
scanf_s("%d", &value);
printf("Enter Charachter to draw with:\n");
scanf_s("%c", &type);
int count = 0;
int count2 = 0;
int firstcounter = 0;
int value2 = 0;
if (value == 1) {
printf("please enter how many lines you would like:");
scanf_s("%d", &value2);
}
switch (value) {
case(1):
while (firstcounter <= value2) {
for (int i = value2; i > firstcounter; i--) {
printf("*");
}
printf("\n");
firstcounter++;
}
break;
case(2):
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < 5; j++) {
printf("%c", type);
}
printf("\n");
}
;
break;
case(3):
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
count2 = 5;
while (count2 > i) {
printf(" ");
count2--;
}
count = 0;
printf("%c", type);
while (count <= i - 1) {
printf("*");
count++;
}
printf("\n");
}
;
break;
case(4):
printf(" %c", type);
int seccount = 1;
for (int i = 0; i <= 4; i++) {
int firstcount = 1;
int thirdcount = 10;
printf("\n");
if (i < 3) {
for (int k = 3; k > i; k--) {
printf(" ");
}
printf("%c", type);
while (firstcount <= seccount) {
printf("*");
firstcount++;;
}
printf("%c", type);
seccount = seccount + 2;
}
if (i >= 3) {
for (int k = 1; k < i; k++) {
printf(" ");
}
printf("%c", type);
while (thirdcount > seccount) {
