Thread: Problem reading input

Yes, read it as a string. Get that much code written, and come back for more help.

// Get command from user (eg. fgets)
// Don't forget to remove the trailing newline character
Input = "command1 13 842\n"

// Split command into words (eg. strtok)
Word[0] = "command1"
Word[1] = "13"
Word[2] = "842"

// See what command the user has entered (eg. if,else,then,case)
// If the command has additional parameters, work with the tokenized strings (eg. atoi)

Code:

If Word[0] == "command1" Then
    Convert Word[1] to integer
    Convert Word[2] to integer
    DoStuff();
Else If Word[0] == "command2" Then
    Convert Word[1] to integer
    DoStuff();
Else If Word[0] == "command3" Then
    DoStuff();
Else If Word[0] == "command4" Then
    DoStuff();
Else
    UnknownCommand();
End If
