Note: I've found the issue that's causing it to stop working half way and corrected it (error in the move up code) so I now know it's that I've got the order of the array in reverse, so I'm taking out the bits of this post that are no longer relevant (hope that's the right thing to do!)....Here's the remaining part of my original post: I already had some help on this and really thought I'd cracked it, (though I've no idea if the 'won' function works yet). It does let me play it but I've tried running check50 and it says it's not even passing 'init initialises 3x3 board correctly'. I can now see my problem is that I'm not getting the positions of the elements to match the locations of the elements (e.g. board[0][0] reads as [2][2] when I'm tracking the tile and the blank, so I've written all the 'move' code to fit with the reverse positioning. Could this be the init problem? I've tried using ++ and -- in the loops and whichever way I do it it's reversed. I hope this makes sense, I would so appreciate if anyone can help - I'm seriously questioning my abilities to do any of this right now!!! Thank you....

fifteen.c
Computer Science 50
Problem Set 3
Implements Game of Fifteen (generalized to d x d).
Usage: fifteen d
whereby the board's dimensions are to be d x d,
where d must be in [DIM_MIN,DIM_MAX]
Note that usleep is obsolete, but it offers more granularity than
sleep and is simpler to use than nanosleep; `man usleep` for more.
