Thread: Width Modifier for End User Input

First of all I'm a beginner. So I'm probably asking a really stupid question.

I have created a program to calculate different measurements for a cylinder. Anyways, the end user has to input 3 variables.

Enter the lower radius: 6
Enter the upper radius: 5
Enter slant height: 2.236

The numbers are what "End User" would input. But I need to make it look like this when said "End User inputs the numbers.

Enter the lower radius: 6
Enter the upper radius: 5
Enter slant height: 2.236

Here is what I have for it, but I don't know what to put where.

printf("\nEnter the lower radius: ");
scanf("%f", &lower_rad);
printf("Enter the upper radius: ");
scanf("%f", &upper_rad);
printf("Enter slant height: ");
scanf("%f", &slant_h);


Thanks!

Not sure if I understand your question. That code seems to work fine.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    float lower_rad, upper_rad, slant_h;

    printf("\nEnter the lower radius: ");
    scanf("%f", &lower_rad);
    printf("Enter the upper radius: ");
    scanf("%f", &upper_rad);
    printf("Enter slant height: ");
    scanf("%f", &slant_h);

    getchar();getchar();
    return 0;
}
