Thread: Help With C code looping

Hi All,

I have written a program that doesn't seem to work and I can't figure out why it's not working. It compiles correctly, but when I run it I get prompted by the first couple of printf statements, as it should, but then the rest of the code doesn't run. Could someone please help me?

Thanks for your help!

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()

    /* Declare Array Variables */
    
    float deposits[50] = {0}; 
    float withdrawals[50] = {0};
    char  first_name[20] = {0};

    /* Declare Variables */

    int   num_withdrawals, num_deposits, x;
    float current_balance = {0};
    float start_bal;
    float total_deposits;
    float total_withdrawals;
    float balance;
    
    /* Output initial greeting */

    printf("Welcome to the Milas Banking System.\n\n");

    printf("Please enter your first name: ");
    scanf("%s", first_name);
    fflush(stdin);

    printf("\nHello, %s.\n\n", first_name);

    /* Get Starting Balance */    

    do{

    printf("%s, Please enter your current balance in dollars and cents: "); /* Prompt user for current balance. */
    scanf("%f", &start_bal);
    fflush(stdin);

    if (start_bal < 0)
    printf("Invalid entry. Starting balance must be at least zero!\n\n");

    } while (start_bal > 0); /*END DO WHILE*/

    return start_bal;

    /* end function get starting balance */
