Calculating the sum of two arrays simultanuosly

[Nyah Check]

hey guys this program has been giving a headache for days now.i created a void sumarrays function which when called with two arguments which are the two arrays sums them up and prints their sum . but when i call it in the main() , the program crashes although it runs .

#define N 100

void sumarrays ( int a[], int b[]);

int total;

int main()
{
    int array1[N], array2[N];

    printf("\nEnter the ages of students in your class: ");

    for ( int i =0; i < N; i++)
    {
        scanf("%d", &array1[i]);
        while ( array1[i] == '\n') break;

    }

    printf("\nEnter their corresponding marks.");

    for ( int u = 0 ; u < N; u++)
    {
        scanf("%d", &array2);

        while(array2[u] == '\n') break;

    }

    //This part calls the void function
     sumarrays ( array1, array2);


    return 0;
}

void sumarrays( int a[], int b[])
{
    for (int i = 0; i < N; i++)
    {
        total = a[i] + b[i];
         while ( a[i] != '=');

    }
    printf("\nThe total is: %d", total);
}

from line 18 when i hit the enter key it does not break out of the loop

You are scanning for an int not a char. You should check if scanf successfully read an int if not break out the loop.

Infinite loop:

while ( a[i] != '=');

Instead of checking the entered value, check the return value from scanf() ...
Look it up in your compiler's documentation... don't have that? Get it!
