c - Frequency of each word of text file. Error while allocating memory? -

good evening everyone! have started messing around strings , pointers in c. want write programm reads text file, calculating frequency of each word , printing it.

my variables are:

file *fp; char *words[n] //n defined 100 int i=0, y=0; int *freq; int freq_count=0;; int word_number=0; 

the code part:

for(i=0;i<word_counter;i++){     while(y<word_counter){          if(strcmp(words[i],words[y]==0){              freq1++;          } y++;     }     if(i==0){          freq=(int*)malloc(sizeof(int));          strcpy(freq, freq1); freq1=0;     }     else{          freq=(int*)realloc(freq, (i+1)*sizeof(int));          strcpy(freq, freq1); freq1=0;     }     y=0; } 

i several errors running this...what wrong? take consideration in words[n] have put each word of text in each cell.

thank in advance.

maybe array not want, still better using realloc , condition in loop.

int freq[n];  for(i=0;i<word_counter;i++){     freq1 = 0;      for(y=0;y<word_counter;y++){         if(strcmp(words[i],words[y]==0)             freq1++;     }     freq[i] = freq1; }
