How could this be modifed to two seperate inputs?

[mikeeginger]

My question is how if it can could this programm be modified to

accept two seperate inputs? if not any tips on creating one that can and validate both inputs to the same degree

could you be less vauge?

could you be less vauge?

Ok i need to make a program that can accept two separate inputs and validate

then assign a grade to one of the inputs based on a percentage

In C language using Visual studio or some other c compiler/editor

 

 

sorry for being vague

its alright but to be honest im starting to program in C and C# but if you want an answer that will help you should head over to http://stackoverflow.com/ im sure they can help you way faster and they know what there talking about.

Well I am assuming by inputs you mean at run-time the user types in information.  (As opposed to command line arguments, if you meant command line arguments I can help you with that as well...it is actually easier, but less flexibility imo)

 

Anyways onto the point.  Here is an example I wrote a long time ago for reading two inputs:

int main() {	char a[1024];	int val;	char line[1024];	int i;	int z;	a[0] = 0;	while(1) {		printf("Enter characters in word:   ");		if(fgets(line, 1024, stdin) == 0) { /* Reads the user input (triggered by enter) */			clearerr(stdin);			return(-1);		}		if(sscanf(line, "%s", a) == 1) /* Read in from string, and %s means it will put the first word as a  */			break;	}	while(1) {		printf("Enter character not in word:   ");		if(fgets(line, 1024, stdin) == 0) {			clearerr(stdin);			return(-1);		}		if(sscanf(line, "%d", &val) == 1)  /* %d means digit, it will read in a digit to the val  */			break;	}	return 0;}

Sorry for the weird comments, I was learning ANSI C when I wrote that

 

Anyways the keys are fgets and sscanf.

fgets will take in character array and stdin (the user input) and wait until the user hits enter.  When the user hits enter everything the user had written in a line will be copied to the character array.

sscanf takes an character array and puts the values into whatever primitive you want, %s is string, %d is integer, %f is floating point.

 

If you need any help with reading or figuring stuff out let me know

I would say post in both, there are a fair amount of people who are good here and on stackoverflow, just the overflow community is more active....also there are cases where overflow can take things too far (from my experience)
