Always returns FAIL, why???

#include <stdio.h>

int main()

{
int course_code, student_grade;


printf("Please enter a valid number 1 -3\n");
scanf("%d", &course_code);

switch (course_code)
{
case 1 : printf("ENGINEERING\n"); break;
case 2 : printf("COMPUTER SCIENCE\n"); break;
case 3 : printf("SCIENCE\n"); break;
default : printf("INVALID COURSE CODE\n"); break;
}

printf("Please enter a valid grade A,B,C\n");

/*gets(student_grade);*/

scanf("%s", &student_grade);


switch (student_grade)
{
case 'A' :printf("DISTINCTION"); break;
case 'B' :printf("MERIT"); break;
case 'C' :printf("PASS"); break;
default :printf("FAIL"); break;
}

}

What? :confused:

As an aside, when posting code it is a good idea to turn smilies off, and of course, use code tags.

Make student_grade a character type variable. You were using an int and then checking 'A' etc.

Code:

---

char student_grade;

---

Also %s is for strings so use this

Code:

---

scanf(" %c", &student_grade);
