I'm having trouble parsing a line with sscanf.
My line is:
1941 How Green Was My Valley; John Ford
and I want to separate it into a number, string, and another string. I tried:
if ( sscanf( buffer, "%d %41[^;] %51s", &pMovie->year, &pMovie->title,
&pMovie->director ) == 3 )But the separation doesn't work the way I want it to.
Jump to PostHow about something like:
int main(void) { char buffer[] = "1941 How Green Was My Valley; John Ford." ; int year = 0 ; char title[BUFSIZ] = { '\0' } ; char director[BUFSIZ] = { '\0' } ; if ( sscanf( buffer, "%d %[^;]; %[^.]", &year, &title, …
How about something like:
int main(void)
{
char buffer[] = "1941 How Green Was My Valley; John Ford." ;
int year = 0 ;
char title[BUFSIZ] = { '\0' } ;
char director[BUFSIZ] = { '\0' } ;
if ( sscanf( buffer, "%d %[^;]; %[^.]", &year, &title, &director ) == 3 )
printf( "Year = %d, title = %s, diretro = %s", year, title, director ) ;
getchar( ) ;
}yeah that's what I want, but how do you get the string after the semi-colon if there was no period at the end?
and why do you need a semi-colon after %[^;]
