This is what I have done but I get this error: warning: initialization of 'char *' from 'char' makes pointer from integer without a cast [-Wint-conversion] char *str = a;

You're saying that a char pointer (str) should be equal to a char.
The one's a character, the ones a memory location. Ofc that can't work.
Also your scanf call is wrong, also never use scanf, especially when you're only trying to get some text input: http://sekrit.de/webdocs/c/beginners-guide-away-from-scanf.html
