fgets problem

[ingeniousreader]

hey i was told to use fgets instead of scanf to read in strings that are separated by whitespace characters but the way i have it here is wrong. the error says "request for member 'name' in something not a structure or a union". any tips on how to make it correct? cheers. THE ERROR IS ON LINE 43.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>


struct bones
{
    char name[20];
    int played;
    int won;
    int drawn;
    int lost;
    int points;


};




struct bones team[4];




int main()
{
    int i;


    for(i=0;i<4;i++)
    {
        team[i].played = 0;
        team[i].won = 0;
        team[i].lost = 0;
        team[i].drawn = 0;
        team[i].points = 0;
    }


    for(i=0;i<4;i++)
    {
        printf("enter each team name\n");
        fgets(team.name[i], 20, stdin);
    }
return(0);
}

This actually has nothing to do with fgets(). You are not properly accessing the structure member. You have an array of team, not a single team try:

fgets(team[i].name, 20, stdin);
