Fix C code

Can someone fix this?

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

char candydata [999];
int findAmountOfCandyCollected( int candyCollected, int candyLost , int candyate);

int main(void)
{ 
    int candyCollected;
    int candyLost;
    int candyate;

    printf( "Please input the amount of candycollected : " );
    scanf( "%d", &candyCollected );
    printf( "Please input the amount of candylost : " );
    scanf( "%d", &candyLost );
    printf( "Please input the amount of candyate : " );
    scanf( "%d", &candyate );
    printf( "The product of your three numbers is %d\n", findAmountOfCandyCollected( candyCollected, candyLost, candyate ) );
    getchar();
}

int findAmountOfCandyCollected (int candyCollected, int candyLost, int candyate)
{
    return candyCollected - candyLost - candyate ;
    {
        int findAmountOfCandyCollected;

        FILE *dataptr;
        dataptr= fopen("candydata", "w");

        if (dataptr !=0)
        {
            fprintf(dataptr, "%d ", findAmountOfCandyCollected);
        }
        else

        {
            printf("could not open the file. /n)");
        }
        fclose(dataptr);
        return 0;
    }
}

 

you didn't say what was wrong or what it should be doing, but your function is returning a value without ever entering the file operation.

It looks like the function might be wanting something like below

Code:

int function(int a, int b, int c)
{
   FILE *f;
   ...
   fprintf(f, "%d ", a - b - c);
   ...
   return a - b - c;
}

really it depends on what you're wanting to return and what you're actually trying to do.

 

Hi Mos,

Wish you a happy new year.

I did not see any error in your code, other than using getchar() at the end.

You have to use getch() instead of getchar() - Hope this should solve your problem..
