Strange output in for loop

Hi, I have the next C code:

PHP:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
    char test = '\0';       //test the value for ending input
    int iCount=0;           //counter in for loop 

    for(iCount=0; iCount<15 ;iCount++)
    {
        printf("\nDo yout want to enter details of a%s car [Y/N]?",
               iCount!=0?"nother":"");
        scanf("%c", &test); 
        if(tolower(test)=='n')          //testing if n or N was pressed
        break;
        printf("\nThis is car nr. %d", iCount); //output a statement in every loop
    }

    return 0;
}

I simplified for better understanding, the output it's a little strange because the testing is made on every second loop. I don't understand why. Please help.

 

What is the output you get and how it is strange?

 

Sorry, i didn't posted my output.
Here they are:


Do you want to enter details of a car [Y/N]?y

This is car nr. 0
Do you want to enter details of another car [Y/N]?
This is car nr. 1
Do you want to enter details of another car [Y/N]?y

This is car nr. 2
Do you want to enter details of another car [Y/N]?
This is car nr. 3
Do you want to enter details of another car [Y/N]?y

This is car nr. 4
Do you want to enter details of another car [Y/N]?
This is car nr. 5
Do you want to enter details of another car [Y/N]?n


i'm expecting to ask in every loop if i want to continue or not.

 

Use the fflush to flush the buffer before each scanf

 

sir(rakoczimrks)
what you have entered source code is absolutely correct but
when you are giving input a small problem occur i.e..,
after entering input you will press enter key so ,when you are reading for second time
it will treat the previous enter as a character and it may print its ascii value or some garbage

so please use fflush(stdin)
means you are buffering the output from the input device you have given

 

Thanks shabir, i have the same problem with my c program thanks for giving solution, now its working
