//toverify:-1st enter 1 then enter1 then add the info...now enter 2 you will get the error???please ans Code: #include<stdio.h> #include<math.h> #include<conio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include<string.h> void student_db(); void disp_info(); void edit_info(); struct s_database { char s_name[10]; char s_ph_number[10]; char s_ID_number[10]; }database[10]; int main() { char num; while(1) { printf("Enter 1-> To create New Student\nEnter 2-> To Display Information of all students\nEnter 3-> To Edit Students Info\n"); fflush(stdin); scanf("%d",&num); //num=0; //num=0 should be initialized here because if not than switch will be executed twice. switch(num) { case 1: { student_db(); break; } case 2: { disp_info(); break; } case 3: { edit_info(); break; } case 4: { exit(1);; } default: { printf("Invalid number entered...please select 1,2 or 3\n"); // num=0; //num=0 should be initialized here because if not than switch will be executed twice. break; getch(); } } } //getch(); return 0; } void student_db() { char no=0; int i=1; printf("--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n"); printf("Enter the number of students information you will be adding to the database\n"); fflush(stdin); scanf("%d",&no); printf("--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n"); if(no>0) { printf("Enter students name\t\tcontact number\t\tID_number\n"); while(no!=0) { printf("Enter student[%d] Information\n",i); fflush(stdin); gets(database[no].s_name); fflush(stdin); gets(database[no].s_ph_number); fflush(stdin); gets(database[no].s_ID_number); // fflush(stdin); no--; i++; } printf("Student Info saved \n"); getch(); //student_db(); } else { printf("Invalid number entered...\n"); //goto step1; student_db(); } } void disp_info() { int no; for(no=0;no<10;no++) { puts(database[no].s_name); puts(database[no].s_ph_number); puts(database[no].s_ID_number); } } void edit_info() { char name[10],no; printf("enter the students name to edit his database\n"); //getch(); fflush(stdin); gets(name); for(no=0;no<10;no++) { if(!(strcmp(database[no].s_name,name))) { printf("Enter students name\t contact number\t and ID_number\n"); gets(database[no].s_name); gets(database[no].s_ph_number); gets(database[no].s_ID_number); } } printf("entered name is not in the student database list\n"); }
you had a lot of errors in your code,i fixed most of them.

hey virxen... good one...but now check this first Enter 1-> To create New Student 2)printf("Enter the number of students information you will be adding to the database\n"); for this try inserting char value .u will get magical erronious output...code is not fool proof man...still thanks for your reply....ill be posting my new code by morrow...with no error
here is the code which is working fool proof...but when i try to display info saved by pressing 3 and enter wrong students name im getting printf("entered name is not in the student database list\n"); it 10 times...help me in reducing it to only one time:mean: Code: #include<stdio.h> #include<math.h> #include<conio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include<string.h> void student_db(); void disp_info(); void edit_info(); struct s_database { char s_name[10]; char s_ph_number[10]; char s_ID_number[10]; }database[10]; int main() { while(1) { static char num; printf("Enter 1-> To create New Student\nEnter 2-> To Display Information of all students\nEnter 3-> To Edit Students Info\n"); fflush(stdin); scanf("%d",&num); //num=0; //num=0 should be initialized here because if not than switch will be executed twice. switch(num) { case 1: { student_db(); break; } case 2: { disp_info(); break; } case 3: { edit_info(); break; } case 4: { exit(1);; } default: { printf("Invalid number entered...please select 1,2 or 3\n"); // num=0; //num=0 should be initialized here because if not than switch will be executed twice. break; getch(); } } } //getch(); return 0; } void student_db() { int no; int i=1; int j=0; printf("--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n"); printf("Enter the number of students information you will be adding to the database\n"); fflush(stdin); scanf("%d",&no); printf("--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n"); if((no!=1)&&(no!=2)&&(no!=3)) { printf("Invalid number entered...\n"); //goto step1; student_db(); } printf("Enter students name\t\tcontact number\t\tID_number\n"); while(no!=0) { printf("Enter student[%d] Information\n",i); fflush(stdin); gets(database[j].s_name); //insted of j if i put no..it will be an error..which leads to 2,1,0 arrayfeed fflush(stdin); gets(database[j].s_ph_number); fflush(stdin); gets(database[j].s_ID_number); // fflush(stdin); --no; ++i; ++j; } printf("Student Info saved \n"); printf("--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n"); //getch(); //student_db(); } void disp_info() { int no; for(no=0;no<10;no++) { puts(database[no].s_name); puts(database[no].s_ph_number); puts(database[no].s_ID_number); } } void edit_info() { char name[10],no; printf("enter the students name to edit his database\n"); //getch(); fflush(stdin); gets(name); for(no=0;no<10;no++) { if(!(strcmp(database[no].s_name,name))) { printf("Enter students name\t contact number\t and ID_number\n"); gets(database[no].s_name); gets(database[no].s_ph_number); gets(database[no].s_ID_number); printf("Student Info saved \n"); } else { printf("entered name is not in the student database list\n"); } } }

int found=0;// *** use this trick in order to know if you found the name you were looking for or no... NICE one now i think some changes would have been better...im planning of using files in my program...i implement some of ur idea in my code... ++i This is pre increment. i++ this is post increment.post decrement means that the variable is decremented after the expression is evaluated now dont ask me the question like...how come u knew the ans...
