Real easy question but I am missing something

How do I let my program check that load_factor <= .75 when I have load factor as a double type but still returns zero instead of a decimal value? Here is the code I am running

while(NotDivisbleYet=true && k<count)
            {
                  
            if(count%k==0)
                  {
                        NotDivisbleYet=false;
                        count++;

                  }
                  else
                  {
                        k++;
                  
                  }
                        if(k>=count)
                        {
                        Prime2=true;
                  
                        if(Prime2 = true)
                        {
                              load_factor=(n/count);
                        }

                              if(      load_factor >= 0.75)
                              {
      
                                    Prime2=false;
                                    NotDivisbleYet=true;
                                    count++;
                                    k=2;
                              }
                              
                        }
                  
            }
Thanks I am sure it is something easy and I am missing the answer

I guess this line:
while(NotDivisbleYet=true && k<count)
could be:
while(NotDivisbleYet==true && k<count)

and this line:
 if(Prime2 = true)
could be:
 if(Prime2 == true)

= is the assignment operator
== is the comparison operator

Good luck,
Jaime.

For your 2nd question:

A C-String is a array of ascii values! :)

For example :

char sBuffer[1024];
FILE* fp;
fp = fopen("example.txt", "rt");
fgets(sBuffer, 1024, fp);
fclose(fp);

Now if the string read is "Hello world !", then sBuffer[0] will contain ascii code for 'H', sBuffer[1] will contain ascii code for 'e', etc.!
sBuffer[i] is a 'char' type, so it's a 1-byte integer.

You can try this with this sample code :
printf("%u", sBuffer[0]); // will print "72" in our example
