now, the user types number or character(*,-,+,/) i have a struct that contains one int variable and one char variable the user types character or number and i need to put the char/num to the proper variable, number to integer and character to char.
so, how can i know what the user typed number or character?

Input equation as a string. Evaluate string one char at a time. isdigit() will return true if the char is a digit. Collect all consecutive digits (you will need to account for decimal point if your equation allows decimal numbers rather than just integers) in a holding string. Once all consecutive digits (plus decimal if allowed) have been collected, change the holding string into a numerical variable using atoi() or atof() or whatever function you find more suitable.
