Thread: Storing user input into arrays

Hello. I am stuck on an assignment. Im not looking for the direct answer, more of a guide into the right direction to resolve the issue. I have to take user input of floating point numbers into an array until either 100 numbers have been reached or the user types -999 and then sort the array. i have been able to get to that point but the trouble i am having is not storing the -999 number as that is supposed to just terminate the program. I have tried to put the portion of the code that stores the userInput into the array inside of the If statement but then I get a weird negative number in the 0 index of the array

Code:

#include <stdio.h>




float bubble_sort(float list[], int n) {
	
	float c, t; 
	int d;
	
	for (c = 0; c < (n - 1); c++)
	{
		for (d = 0; d < n - c - 1; d++) 
		{
			if (list[d] > list[d + 1])
			{ 
				/* Swapping */ 
				t = list[d];
				list[d] = list[d + 1]; 
				list[d + 1] = t;
			} 
		} 
	}
}


int main()
{


	float userInput = 0.0f;
	float inputArray[100];
	int i = 0;
	
	
	while (i < 100)
	{
		if (userInput != -999)
		{
			scanf_s("%f", &userInput);	
		}
		inputArray[i] = userInput;
		i++;
		
	}
	bubble_sort(inputArray, i);
	
	
	printf("%f %f %f", inputArray[0], inputArray[1], inputArray[2]);


	


	return 0;
}
