#help with tokenizing from stdin and storing in arrays

I have to read a file through stdin line by line. I need to ignore any lines that start with #, 1 or 0. I need to tokenize the next line that is split by semicolons and store the questions in an array.
Basically it’s one long line of questions separated by semicolons. I need to tokenize and move it to an array. This is my code so far but when I try and run it it’s an empty output of 38 lines (so it registers the lines but it just prints a new line)
I’ve commented some code out but I can only approach that when I figure the question_handler function out. Thanks again if you can help!!
the input file is on top and the output is the empty space below

Hmm what is sizeof(line)?
I'm pretty sure line is just a pointer, so size is 8. But you obviously want it to be 10000
Then. I'm pretty sure you want to test whether the first character is the digit '1', not the character with code 1. (Or 0)
So, it should be line[0] == '1'
Oh and every time you call the wuestion_handler, the index gets reset to 0
So it's overwriting questions

Skip lines that start with #, 0 or 1
Tokenize the lines that have a semicolon with them and store them in questions

I am unsure how to fix this if I could get any tips it would be amazing

Its still outputting empty new lines

Oh my god.. lol.. how did I not notice
You aren't even passing the array to the function.
Of course it is not changing anything, and array stays empty

Not in this case. No. line here is an array of size 10000
