Error

[dantu1985]

hi
i have coded a program such that when a string with a hyphen (-) is entered it should display all the letters between characters on either side of string.
input is harsha-gas
output is a b c d e f g

but i am getting an error in the program....could anyone pls help

thanks

also in case if input is harsha-9gas then it should print a-z then A-Z in caps and 0-9

how do i do this

could anyone give me a clue

thanks

#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
main()
{
 char a[100],p,q;
 int i,j,k,s;
 printf("enter the string seperated by a -");
 
gets(a);
 printf("%s",a);
s=strlen(a);
for(i=0;i<s;i++)
{
	if(a[i]=='-')
	{
		p=a[i-1];
		q=a[i+1];
	}

	if(p>=97&&p<=123)
	{
		printf("%c ",p++);
	}
	if(p==q)
		break;
	else
		if(p>=65&&p<=91)
		{
			printf("%c ",p++);
		}
}
printf("%c",q);
}

then it must print

I don't see any loop besides the for-loop that scans through the input string.
I also don't think the braces around your if (a[i] == '-')) are in the right place.

Could you use the "code" tags to make your code look a bit more readable?

gets(a);

Use fgets instead of gets:

fgets(a,sizeof(a),stdin);
