Re: Array Problems: Possible<stdio.h>

When the array is stored in the ROM does that mean the array has to be global? I had a smoothing function last year but i just called the array like so: motor1 = smooth[joy]; However, this year i wanted to put it in function and i kept getting errors saying the stack size was too large. I have a feeling this is due to a variable's scope in a function. Could i use static to place the variables in a function?

No, it doesn't have to be global. If it's outside a function, it will have global scope by default. But you can restrict its visibility to the file only by assigning it "static" storage class. You can also hide the array inside a function. It compiled cleanly when I defined it as "static rom const unsigned char speed_array[256]..." inside a function. (Thank you Arthur(Ssbfalcon) for pointing out that all the data values in the array would fit in char sized elements.)
