C :: How To Scanf To Integer Or Char
Feb 6, 2014
I have to make a program for school to evalute poker hand.I am not asking about the logic of the program,I am asking because I have to take the input from the console,five lines which can be the cards 2,3,4..10 and the problem is with J,Q,K,A ,because I dont know how to tell scanf to expect integer or char ? If I type J,Q,K,A the program crash ,

In GCC v4.6, I am encountering a strange problem. If I try to get a character input and a int input like this:
Code:
int main()
{
int a;
char b;
scanf("%d",&a);
scanf("%c",&b);
}
the compiled program asks for input only one time. On the other hand, if I do the char scanf earlier like this:
Code:
int main()
{
int a;
char b;
scanf("%c",&b);
scanf("%d",&a);
}
it asks for input twice.

I'm doing a code to calculate the final grade of students. This is a work for college, and I need to keep this structure.
My problem is that last scanf, it is ignored when I compile the code. It "works" if I try to scan a string, float or int.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
void nfinal(float NOTA1,float NOTA2,float NOTA3,char MEDIA){
int NOTA;
if(MEDIA=='A'){
NOTA=(NOTA1+NOTA2+NOTA3)/3;
[Code]....

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int main(){
unsigned char x, y=10;
scanf ("%c", &x);
[Code] ....
If I take out scanf and assign x a value then it works, but if I enter, for example, 10 into scanf it comes up as 234 rather than 100.

I am trying to assign the integer value to unsigned char array. But it is not storing the integer values. It prints the ascii values. Here the code snippet
Code: uchar uc[100];
for(i=0;i<100;i++)
{
uc[i] = i;
}
The values which are stored in uc[] is ascii values.I need the integer values to be stored in uc[]. I tried to do it with sprintf. but the output is not as expected. if I print the uc[i] it should diplay the value as 0,1,2....99.

I am trying to keep a count on a variable name stored within a structure as char*'s. They are of the same field and I do not know how many there will be so I would like to keep a standard name and append the count.
So say I have a variable name such as "desk", but as I have many of these said desks so I would like to call them "desk1", "desk2", "desk3" and so forth. Any recommendations on how I could do this?
Also since this is somewhat relevant is there an easy way to convert from an integer to a string, something that would work like atoi() in reverse? I wouldn't mind writing a method to do so myself but haven't a clue as to how.

Consider below statements:
int x;
scanf("%d", &x);
After running, It's supposed to enter an integer for x. what will happen if I enter a char instead of integer? which value will be in &x and x itself? I have a script and I get strange result while entering a char instead of integer for x.

I have an embedded microcontroller system communicating with a similar system by radio. The api for the radio requires data to be transmitted as an unsigned char array. It will always transmit a positive integer in the range 0 to 255.When I receive the data I am having difficult in extracting this positive integer.
Code:
unsigned char rxData[4]={'1','2','3',''};
int inVal=0;
//want to assign inVal whatever number was transmitted
E.g. 123
I've been at this for a week and have tried at least 10 different approaches including the use of the atoi(), copying the absolute value of each element of rxData into another char array, reinterpret_cast, and others.

I'm reading lines from a text file in C++ which contains integer + string + float number(like 3,67 with comma) + string in this order. I need the float number to sort the lines but I couldn't manage to separate the data into the types I can use so far. I tried different kind of functions and the best I could do was such a code;
void main (){
ifstream records;
records.open("records.txt");
int id;
string line;
char name[100];
float gpa;
[Code] ....
This fails at reading the floating number which has comma in it and then last string is read as string starting with the comma and rest of the number. An output example is:
698 John 3 ,67
It doesn't read last string on the line as well. I understand that part but simply I need another read but what I want exactly is to separate one line using "tab" as a seperator into proper data types and then using the numbers as integers, and the grades as floating numbers. How Can I do this?

I'm attempting to save values from a char buffer into integer values of a struct.
This is what resides in the buffer "STD 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 " and this is my sscanf call
Code:
sscanf(buffer, "STD %d %d %d %d %d %d %d
", &dt_struct.date,
&dt_struct.mth,
&dt_struct.year,
&dt_struct.dow,
&dt_struct.hr,
&dt_struct.min,
&dt_struct.sec);
I then print the values back out in a string using sprintf.
Code:
sprintf(t_string, "STD %d %d %d %d %d %d %d
", dt_struct.date,
dt_struct.mth,
dt_struct.year,
dt_struct.dow,
dt_struct.hr,
dt_struct.min,
dt_struct.sec);
But this is what I get:
STD 0 0 2 0 0 0 2
Instead of what I want:
STD 2 2 2 2 2 2 2

I am a little confused while comparing char pointers to integer pointers. Here is the problem:
Consider the following statement;
char *ptr = "Hello";
char cArr[] = "Hello";
When I do cout << ptr; it prints Hello, same is the case with the statement
cout << cArr;
As ptr and cArr are pointers, they should print addresses rather than contents, but if I have an interger array i.e.
int iArr[] = {1, 2, 3};
If I cout << iArr; it displays the expected result(i.e. prints address) but pointers to character array while outputting doesn't show the address but shows the contents, Why??

When I do this:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main () {
int guess ;
int number = 5 ;
[Code] .....
But when I do this:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main () {
int guess ;
int number = 5 ;
[Code] ....
Why does the compiler say that there is an else without a previous if ??? ... Does this mean that I cannot use "scanf" in an if/else statement?

I want the user to be able to enter a command then a character, like for example: push r....I want the command to be stored in the array command, and the character to be stored in the variable c.
Now I wonder what the best way to get rid of the space is, using scanf or getchar (see below for code, only thing that I changed between the 2 versions is the statement before the comment "get rid of space")? Or maybe it doesnt matter?
Code:
include <stdio.h>
#define MAX 200
void push(char c); // Puts a new element last in queue
char pop(void); // Gets the first element in queue
static char s[MAX];
}
[code]....

I am trying to write a terminal-like chat application in Linux. I would like to use a FIFO queue to print out the messages in terminal. The queue would be populated from 2 sources- stdin and messages sent from the other user over TCP. I have meet an obstacle that I cannot handle...
Lets say I would like to take user input using fgets and put it into a buffer. Then queue it if the buffer is not empty or print if it is. The problem is that when I use fgets or scanf, my input is instantly printed to the terminal..If i do:
Code:
fgets(message, 100, stdin); printf
("%s", message The string under message is printed twice :|. Is there a way to prevent this?

I wanted to input some numbers with scanf function, i can enter some numbers and if I input -1 to the scanf, the input must end. And the scanf function has limited input, the max that I can input is 40 numbers.example if enter 1 2 4 6 5 4 -1 the scanf function will ended and the result will be appear.I wanted to know how the scanf function is like that would be best for this problem, Code: scanf("%d", &n); the result if I input those number will be like

I don't know how many numbers will be the input only that its going to be up to 10000. EOF should be active. I tried it like this:
Code:
int i = 0;
int del[10000]
while (scanf("%d",del[i])!=EOF)
{
i++;
}
But it seems the value of i doesn't increment, could you provide some tips on how to scanf the inputs into an array if I don't know how many numbers will I have?

when i run it , it skips scanf and not allowing user to enter input.tried adding getchar(), fflush but nothing worked for me.
//file name : sort_array_of_structure.c
Code:
/*Write a program to accept records of the different states using array of structures. The structure should contain char state, population, literacy rate, and income. Display the state whose literacy rate is highest and whose income is highest.*/
#include <stdio.h>
#define M 50
struct state
{
char name[50];
long int population;
float literacyRate;
float income;
}

I have created a prompt which prompts the user for an integer and I have set up a loop to check for if it is an integer or not. My "bug" is that a user can enter an "integer" and "space" and "enter" and it does not give any error and assumes that "All is FINE!". I have gotten the value from the ascii table of 'SPACE' and put it as a check in my parameter of while, but it does not work.
Here is my code:
int x, y, boolean, i;
char buff[256];
printf("Enter the first integer value: ");
scanf("%s", buff);
i = 0;
boolean = 0; //initializing our boolean var that will eventually decide if we have an error or not

I am writing a program and am asking the user to enter a number between 1-12.
If they do not, they will be promoted over and over again to enter a number between 1-12.
However, if the user enters a letter or anything else scanf seems to stop working and then my loop goes out of control.

How to store the value in this case.. The topic is called "limited summation".. The following is the guideline for this problem:
Write a program in a folder called "sum" with a source file of main.cpp that does the following:
•prompt a user to enter a maximum number of entries, make the prompt "max # entries"
•prompt a user to enter a threshold sum, make the prompt "threshold"
•using error checking logic, let a user enter base-10 signed numbers until at least one of the following conditions is true:
or the maximum number of entries is reached
or the sum of entered numbers has reached (>=) the threshold
•print the sum of all the entries, just the number and a linefeed at the end of the line
Error checking means entries that are not numbers are detected and ignored. You are to use printf and scanf in this assignment (no cin or cout).

I tried to scanf the input by the user into the function but it does not read my input. Read on one of the thread, it said that to scanf a input into a double, need to use %1f instead to %d (which normally used. I tried changing it to %1f and it still did not work.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
/* function main begins program execution */
int main( void )
{
double amount; /* amount on deposit */

The problem that I want to make an array " vertextDegree [nbColours] " with " nbColours " elements in it ,but the "nbColours" unknown and I have to get it get it from a file .
Code:
int nbEdges,nbVetices, nbColours ;
typedef struct st_graphVertex {
int index;
int colour;
int val ;
int vertexDegree[nbColours]; // it won't work because nbColours unknown
// here and I want get it from file in the main
struct st_graphVertex *next;
t_edgeList *out;

I'm trying to make a very simple reaction game where a random number flickers on the screen for a fraction of a second and the user has to then enter the number before another comes on the screen after a random amount of time. However I dont know how i would make it so that the user cannot enter anything after a certain amount of time has passed, below is my code?
Also FYI, clock_start is at 5100 because by the time the program actually gets to scanning in the first number the time is at an absolute minimum of 5050 milliseconds however obviously this is an impossible number to reach due to processing, my machine clocks in at 5080.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <windows.h>
int main(void){
