Show me some code.

I want to see your database access and at least one attempt at making a copy of the data.

Show us what you've done...

Ok it would seem your design is at least a reasonable choice then.

Will you have any trouble with the 'make a copy of the data' part?

Well, I personally prefer to help with code that will at least compile...

Your original lines 36-39:

status = fscanf(filep, "%d%d%d%d", measuredp->site_id_num

I'm almost certain you have to make a copy of the data to do what you're trying to do.

Depending on the database and the size thereof, attempting to load the entire database into an array might...

When asking for help, please describe the symptoms you do see (if any).

For debugging purposes, you should add some print statements to your code to confirm that you are getting the data you...

Posting the code (in code tags) would have saved a lot of description of 'how you solved' the problem and given us a chance to actually help you.

I think I understand the symptoms of the problem...

If the parent process doesn't have to wait, why does it care who finishes first.

If at least one child process needs to finish, then you have to wait.

That looks like it ought to work.

The program is counting the characters in the word say "daniweb" and also counting the enter as it is also a character before the EOF.

if you entered "daniweb"...

We like to help those that show some effort, especially when it appears to be an assignment.

Not surprisingly, but your program is doing what you told it to:

I thought of a way to write your program without using the '||' operator would be to double the ifs and have 2 sections for each.

Actually, that code tag message was intended as a reply for yabuki

But if you're not posting your code with code tags, feel free to use them :)

I don't think I can be much more blatant.

When you type:

int main() {
printf("Hello, World\n");
return 0;
}

That's very pretty code, but it should have been posted using code tags.

When posting c code, please use c code tags

And logically, the if statements you have don't...

I wasn't in your original chain...but I'll try to help.

Your problem is that you have a pointer to a pointer and you're indexing off...

AND and OR are 2 similar but different constructs.

Rephrasing one of your if statements into english:

if (d>=21 && d<=19 && m==3 && m==4)

That reads: If the day of the month is both more than or equal to 21 and also less than or equal to 19...

I don't think you can use scanf and meet those criteria, scanf will not accept spaces.

I suggest using fgets and parsing the line you get back to validate.

How would you solve the problem manually?

How did you decide how many to give me?

You are obviously searching the input array, but you are iterating Vortex * Vortex times. Isn't that more than the array can hold? (or is there another counter for the number of input pairs?)

Thanks for the better explanation.

Is it possible that you might have an input line like:

If so, your current data structure is insufficient to hold your data as the '24' will not...

First comment...the single character input[0][x] can never be the invalid character constant '10'.

That was a nice paragraph, but I still have no idea what you wanted to do with the data from Input[2].

I built and compiled your code.

I added one debug line:

First, this isn't your thread. You aren't supposed to SOLVE the problem for them, THEY are supposed to do most of the work. We only want to help them through the code they don't understand.

Define successfully.
How many grades did it print out?
Were there 15 grades?
Did you attempt to add additional printf's to confirm that the grade array actually got any data in it?

name was declared as char name[20]; which is enough space for ONE 20 character name and '%s' is DESIGNED to work with character arrays.

grade was declared as int grade[MAXSTUDENTS][EXAMS] which is...

Yes, grade is now a two dimensional array.

Do you always want to put the score in grade[0][0]?

for(col=0;col<EXAMS;col++){
printf("\nExam score : ");
scanf("%d",&grade);


That was from your code.
