I don't understand how to make a Pointer Structure can someone help me to modify my
program?! and I have another problem, I'm using fgets scanning but there is a problem after an input for numbers 1 to 4 the fgets captures NULL and pass thru the default in my switch statement how can I stop that?because my professor what to capture the spaces..lastly how can i check the values of the real and imaginary numbers using atof when the input is a string or a char and there is no range of values how can i do that?!Thank!!

[virxen]

as a start do the following

........
void DisplayCN(CN,CN,CN);//add this

int main(void){
.........

insert a getchar(); after the scanf's before getche();

for example

..............
      case 1:
        system("cls");
        printf("Change the Value of the Real Number\n");
        printf("CN1: %.2f%+.2fi\n",cx.real,cx.img);
        printf("New Value for the Real Number: ");
        scanf("%lf",&cx.real);
        getchar();
        getche();
        break;
      case 2:

isnumber function
==============
check before atoi,atof the string you want to convert

#include <stdio.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include <string.h>


int isNumber(char []);

int isNumber(char text[]){
int isit=1;
    for(int i=0;i<strlen(text);i++){
        if (!isdigit(text[i])){
            isit=0;
            break;
        }
    }
return isit;
}

int main (){
  char str1[]="1g776ad";
  char str2[]="1776d"; 
  char str3[]="g1776"; 
  char str4[]="1776"; 
  printf("\n<1=true , 0=false> isnumber=%d",isNumber(str1));
  printf("\n<1=true , 0=false> isnumber=%d",isNumber(str2));
  printf("\n<1=true , 0=false> isnumber=%d",isNumber(str3));
  printf("\n<1=true , 0=false> isnumber=%d",isNumber(str4));
  getchar();
  return 0;
}

the above code (isnumber function) is suitable only for atoi function
to get an integer from string.

for atof you need some more changes
for instance you can only have one . in your string
you can have one - but only as the first char
for example -1.55

but if you want numbers like -10.5e-03 it wants some more things to implement.
still only one .
- can be 2
e can exist but it must be followed by + or - and at least one number after the signs.

happy coding!!

I understand the isnumber function but the problem is that I don't know what are the initialized value inside the array and what how can I make a pointer structure in the inputs or in the printing, here is an example:

    #include <stdio.h>

struct card {                           
char *face; 
char *suit; 
};

int main()
{ 
struct card aCard; 
struct card *cardPtr;

aCard.face = "Ace";   
aCard.suit = "Spades";

cardPtr = &aCard;

printf( "%s%s%s\n%s%s%s\n%s%s%s\n", aCard.face, " of ", aCard.suit,
cardPtr->face, " of ", cardPtr->suit,                           
( *cardPtr ).face, " of ", ( *cardPtr ).suit );                 

return 0;
}

[virxen]

here is a small example for you.

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

struct employee{
    char *name;
    int  code;
    float salary;
}*emp;


int howmany=0;

void show_employees(),free_memory();

int main(){
    char name[30];
    int i=0,epilogi;
    name[0]='1';
    printf("\nGive * for name to stop adding employees!");
    while (name[0]!='*'){
        i++;
        if (i==1) emp=(struct employee *) malloc(sizeof(struct employee));
        else
            emp=(struct employee *) realloc(emp,i*sizeof(struct employee));
        if (emp==0){
            printf("\nnot enough memory!!");
            name[0]='*';
        }
        else{
          printf ("\nEmployee No: %d\nGive name: ",i);
          scanf("%s",name);
          getchar();
        }
        if (name[0]!='*'){
          emp[i-1].name=(char *) malloc(strlen(name)+1);
          strcpy(emp[i-1].name,name);
          printf("Give code : ");
          scanf("%d",&emp[i-1].code);
          getchar();
          printf("Give salary : ");
          scanf("%f",&emp[i-1].salary);
          getchar();
          howmany=i;
        }
    }
show_employees();
free_memory();
            printf("end of program.\n");
            getchar();
            exit(0);
return 0;
}//end of main




void show_employees(){
    int i;
    for (i=0; i<howmany; i++)
    printf ("|%5d | name:%20s | code:%8d | salary:%10.2f |\n",i+1,emp[i].name,emp[i].code,emp[i].salary);
    
}

void free_memory(){
    int i;
    for (i=0;i<howmany;i++){//free memory pointers
    free(emp[i].name);
}
    free(emp);
