Problem using floating number in a structure

[Syed Mubashshir Husain]

I face a problem in using floating number.

#include <stdio.h>

struct tag
{
double a;
}x[10];

int main ()
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < 2; ++i) scanf ("%f", &x[i].a);
return 0;
}

You might want to scanf() it to a "float" type first ... and then you can assign it to your "double" type ... That's what I always do ...

Just use %lf, this works with gcc
[c]#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX 10
struct tag
{
double a;
}x[MAX];

int main ()
{
int i;
for (i = 0; i < MAX; ++i) scanf ("%lf", &x[i].a);
for (i = 0; i < MAX; ++i) printf ("%lf\n", x[i].a);
return 0;
}
[/c]

I got problem from following code.

The correct code is :

#include<stdio.h>

struct tag
{
double x;
} ar[12];

int main()
{
long i;
for(i = 0; i < 2; i++)
{
scanf("%lf",&ar[i].x);
}
return 0;
}
