floating point numbers display something wrong i think

[Unregistered]

when i enter floading point numbers then go to function to check there is no character then go to showdata function to show the the number it doesn't show 0.0000 if i put showdata function in the main it shows the right value
could u help me what is wrong with it
cheers!
#include <stdio.h>

typedef struct tagStock
{
char wholesale[100];
float wholesaleprice;

}Stock;

int i;
char ex;
//*************prototype***************
void ShowData();
float WholesaleP(char wholeP[],Stock *stk);
//******Main**********
void main()
{
struct Stock sta;

bool k;
int a;
WholesaleP(sta.wholesale,&sta);

ShowData();
}
//************function****************
float WholesaleP(char wholeP[],Stock *stk)
{

do
{
printf("Enter wholesale price : ");
scanf("%s",wholeP);
for(i = 0; wholeP[i] && isdigit(wholeP[i]) || wholeP[i]=='.'; i++) ;

} while(wholeP[i]);
stk->wholesaleprice= atof(wholeP);
return 1;
}

//=======Show Data function=================
void ShowData()
{
struct tagStock sta;
printf("Wholesale price : ");
printf("%f\n",sta.wholesaleprice);
}

1. It should be int main and main should return a value.
2. What's the purpose of the while loop in WholesaleP?
3. You haven't initialised the struct in ShowData.

You should pass the struct which is created in main to the function ShowData. And ShowData should then print the contents of the pased struct.

the purpose of the loop is
to check the floating number is all number not character
i am quite new with C
thanks

In that case I would use a while loop instead of a for loop. Perhaps something like this works (I haven't tested it):

StrLength = strlen (wholeP);

NonDigitFound = FALSE;
Counter = 0;

while (NotDigitFound == FALSE && Counter < StrLength)
{
    if (!isdigit (wholeP [Counter]))
        NotDigitFound = TRUE;
}

if (NotDigitFound == FALSE)
    stk->wholesaleprice= atof(wholeP);

In C a variable declared in a function is local. That means that the variable is known in the function in which it is declared and it is not known by the other functions.

So the variable sta you declared in main() is not known by ShowData(). If you want ShowData to print the contents of sta, you need to pass that variable to the function.

Function main() should be of type int and return a return-value, this value tells the environment how the program finished. Usually 0 is OK and 1 is ERROR. The environment can be a programm which calls your program or the OS.
