ok.. I retried code (couldnt use getchar() ) and I have one problem. When i try play a song it crashes. Anyone able to help?
Code:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctype.h>
struct node//creates a struct called node which holds artist name,song title,a pointer to next node and a counter
{
char artist[80];
char title[80];
struct node*link;
int counter;
};
typedef struct node N;//defines struct node as N
N*createcd(N*cd,char name[],char song[],int counter);//prototype for create cd function
N*search(N*head,char key[]);//prototype for search function
void playsong(N*node);//prototype for playsong function
N*createlist(N*head);//prototype for create list function
void displaylist(N*head);//prototype for display list function
void main()
{
N*head=NULL;//sets the value of head of the list to 0
int choice=0;//control variable for loop
char songname[80];//name of song wanted in play song function
N*position;//gives position of found song
do{
printf("\t\tWelcome to CD Player\n\n");//prints out menu
printf("\t1.Create a CD\n");
printf("\t2.Play a CD\n");
printf("\t3.Display List\n");
printf("\t0.Press to exit\n\n");
printf("Please enter your choice\n");
scanf("%d",&choice);
if(choice==1)//this is the create cd section, it creates the cd and then displays the link list
{
head=createlist(head);
displaylist(head);
}
else if(choice==2)//this is the play song section, it prompts the user for the name of the song they want to play, it finds it in the list and then returns it to the play song function
{
