Placing random values in array

I'm new to coding and debugging. As an assignment I'm trying to make a Nim game for two players. However whenever I reach a point in my code it give me a segmentation fault. I thought the problem would be something as pointing to a wrong place in an array, but changing those values did not help. Eventually I tried to debug using gdb, and it said that I had a segmentation fault at the line where I assign a random number to the array. I wouldn't know what to do with the information I got while debugging though. Here's the part where I assign random numbers from 1 to 6 into an array:



for (int x; x < aantalrijen; x++) {
if (geinitialiseerd == 0) {
fiches[x] = rand()% 6 + 1 ;
geinitialiseerd = 1;
}
printf("ntRij %d:t", x+1);
for (int y = 0; y < fiches[x]; y++) {
printf(" @ ");
}
fichesum = fichesum + fiches[x];
}
}


Surprisingly enough I only get the segmentation fault if I enter a 1 or a 10 as aantalrijen, but not when I enter anything inbetween. However the code still doesn;t work as it should when I do enter a number from 2 to 9. This is the entire code I have written up to now, even though it's not complete yet:



#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

//Initialiseren van speler namen, wiens beurt het is, de aantal rijen,
de aantal fiches op ieder rij, het totaal aantal fiches en de variant
die gespeeld wordt.
char speler1[10];
char speler2[10];
int geinitialiseerd;
int beurt;
int aantalrijen;
int fiches[10];
int fichesum;
int rijnemen;
int aantalnemen;
int variant;

int output () {

//For loop voor initialisatie van het spel. Hiermee wordt bedoelt dat x aantal rijen een random waarde krijgen tussen 1 en 6. Deze worden ook meteen geprint.
for (int x; x < aantalrijen; x++) {
if (geinitialiseerd == 0) {
fiches[x] = rand()% 6 + 1 ;
geinitialiseerd = 1;
}
printf("ntRij %d:t", x+1);
for (int y = 0; y < fiches[x]; y++) {
printf(" @ ");
}
fichesum = fichesum + fiches[x];
}
}

int main () {

//Introductie en vraag om namen
printf("==========================================================================================n**Welkom bij Nim! Dit is een spel gemaakt door Michael Francis voor twee spelers!t**n==========================================================================================n**Wat is de naam van speler 1?tttttttt**n");
scanf("%s", &speler1);
printf("**Wat is de naam van speler 2?tttttttt**n");
scanf("%s", &speler2);
printf("n**Kies het aantal rijen waarmee u wilt spelen (tussen de 1 en 10):ttt**n==========================================================================================n");
scanf("%d", &aantalrijen);
printf("==========================================================================================n**Kies de variant die u wilt spelen:ttttttt**nt1. Verliezer neemt laatste fichent2. Winnaar neemt laatste fichen==========================================================================================n");
scanf("%d", &variant);
printf("==========================================================================================n**Nieuw gegenereerd spel:tttttttt**n");
output();
printf("nn==========================================================================================n");
fichesum = 100;
while (fichesum != 0) {

//For-loop om huidige fiches uit te printen
//for (int a; a < aantalrijen; a++) {
// printf("ntRij %d:t", a+1);
// for (int b = 0; b < fiches[a]; b++) {
// printf(" @ ");
// }
//}
output();

fichesum = 0;
if (beurt == 0) {
printf("nn==========================================================================================n%s is aan de beurt!", speler1);
beurt = 1;
} else {
printf("nn==========================================================================================n%s is aan de beurt!", speler2);
beurt = 0;
}
printf("nUit welk rij wilt u fiches nemen?n");
scanf("%d", &rijnemen - 1);
printf("nHoeveel fiches wilt u nemen?n");
scanf("%d", &aantalnemen);
fiches[rijnemen] = fiches[rijnemen] - aantalnemen;
printf("%d", fiches[rijnemen]);

}

return 0;

          If you compile with -Wall -O2, you'd get a warning on the for loop in output:



          dut.c: In function ‘output’:
          dut.c:21:11: warning: ‘x’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
          for (int x; x < aantalrijen; x++) {
          ^


          Change:



          for (int x; x < aantalrijen; x++) {


          Into:



          for (int x = 0; x < aantalrijen; x++) {




          Another warning to fix



          Change:



              scanf("%s", &speler1);
          scanf("%s", &speler2);


          Into:



              scanf("%s", speler1);

          Another warning to fix



          Change:

          scanf("%s", &speler2);

          If you compile with -Wall -O2, you'd get a warning on the for loop in output:



          dut.c: In function ‘output’:
          dut.c:21:11: warning: ‘x’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
          for (int x; x < aantalrijen; x++) {
          ^


          Change:



          for (int x; x < aantalrijen; x++) {


          Into:



          for (int x = 0; x < aantalrijen; x++) {
