Thread: K&R solution?

I was doing one of the K&R exercises which is to write a loop equivalent for the following short program without using || or &&. Usually my solutions are pretty similar to the solution book answer or some of the solutions I can find on the web but this time it is very different. Am I way off with this solution?

Code:

for (i = 0; i < lim -1 && (c = getchar()) != '\n' && c != EOF; ++i)
		s[i] = c;

to

Code:

        i = 0;
	while (i < lim -1)
		if (c = getchar() != '\n')
			if (c != EOF)
				++i;
        s[i] = c;
