This whole thing is way off base. Someone asks what you would use to get numbers instead, and you list functions that produce results... in text. In this case the link is not unwanted external help but required reading because you didn't mention what you would actually do.Originally Posted by MyBlackSon
I have read that a large majority of people prefer using an alternative such as gets(), fgets() or getchar(). For any wanted external help, I found this a helpful webpage (Question 12.20)
