Thread: User Input with Forks

Hey just thought some of the user might be able to shed some light on my situation. So im working with forks and creating 2 fork processes. One child and parent. What im trying to get the child to ask me for a value. Then the parent would start to figure out the value and keep trying. Once it figures it out its tells them you got it and simply stops the program. I cant seem to get the program to keep guessing and stop when the number is found which sends a sigint. Here's what i have so far.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>  
#include <unistd.h> 
#include <signal.h> 
#include <stdbool.h>  

 int main() {     
 int j, i,pid;     
bool p= true;    
 int input;     
 printf("Fork\n");        
   
  // clone process    
 j = fork();     

 //child     
if (pid == 0) {   
     while(true){      
 if(!p){        
 printf("Enter a value");       
  scanf("%d", &input);     }}}   

   //parent          
else {            
while (input == 1) {          
printf("%s\n", "you got it"); 
}}}

maybe use threads instead. they can share variables
