Error in couple of lines of code and dont know how to add while loop??

a. In line 24 and 25 the program is reading from the command line a specified filename. What should i do if i have mistyped the filename (ie the specified filename can't be found. then what will happen? )

b. How can i improve the program to check that the filename exists before continuing its operation (specified in line 26). what should be its pseudocode?

c. using awhile loop instead of an if ... else statement.how to loop until a correct filename is entered

Are you, by chance, aspiring to participate in the The International Obfuscated C Code Contest ?

Seriously, format and indent the code, before posting.
(Oh, and remove the line numbers ).

i just put the line numbers to because one can easily identify the line where the problem is..
can you help me with this please?

Not unless you do what manasij asked you to do. If we're going to help you, the least you can do is to make it as easy as possible for us to help you. That includes properly formatting your code.

(Oh, and if you use the code tags properly, it'll automatically show the line numbers).

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/types.h> 
#include <sys/stat.h> 
#include <fcntl.h> 
#include <sys/file> 
#include <unistd.h> 
#include <stdlib.h> 
#include <time.h> 
typedef struct { 
char name[256]; 
u_short mode; 
short user_id; 
short group_id; 
off_t size; 
char time_last_modified[50]; 
} file_data; 
int main(){ 
char file_name[2]; 
struct stat file_info; 
file_data file_dat; 
pritf("Enter file name: "); 
scanf("%d", file_nam); 
stat(file_name, &file_info); 
strcpy(file_dat.name,file_name); 
file_dat.mod = file_info.st_mode; 
file_dat.user_id = file_info.st_uid; 
file_dat.group_id = file_info.st_gid; 
file_dat.size = file_info.st_size; 
strcpy(file_dat.time_last_modified,ctime(&file_info.st_mtime)); 
printf("File name: %s \n", file_dat.name); 
printf("File mode: %o \n", file_dat.mode); 
printf("File user id: %d \n", file_dat.user_id); 
printf("File group id: %d \n", file_dat.group_id); 
printf("File size: %d \n", file_dat.size); 
printf("File last modified: %s", file_dat.time_last_modified); 
}

Can you help me now please?

You will probably start receiving help when your code is properly indented. At the moment you have colorful obfuscated code.
As far as if a file exists, what have you read about the return value of stat function?

Post your compiler errors/warnings.

After fixing your headers for my system I got this.

NOTE: Using the wrong spelling of the name for a variable or function does NOT work in [nearly] all programming languages.
NOTE2: C is case sensitive; I did not see any case sensitive issues; but, I really did not look for them.

> char file_name[2];
This is only useful for single character filenames.

> pritf("Enter file name: ");
Does this even compile?
Can you spell printf ?

> scanf("%d", file_nam);
1. %d is not how you read a string
2. everywhere else, you write file_name
