Thread: Starting with arrays and getting error!! Please get me help

Here is my header file code (structure.h)

Code:

struct user {


    int userId;
    char firstname[20];
    char lastname[20];
    int age;
    float weight;


};

And here is my main program code

Code:

//Programming in C (Structural)


/*

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include "strucutre.h"


char name[25];
void addusr_Wizard(char name[25]);
int main(void)


{
    system("clear");
    char c;
    
    printf("Want to add a user? (Y OR N)");
    
    scanf("%c", &c);
    
    if(c == 'Y') 
    {
        printf("\nEnter name of the user: ");
        scanf("%s", &name);
        addusr_Wizard(name);
    } else 
    {
        printf("OK! As you wish!");
        break;
    }
    
    getchar();
    return 0;
}


void addusr_Wizard(char name[25])
{
    struct user name;
    
    name.firstname = name;
    printf("Enter last name of the user: ");
    scanf("%s", &name.lastname);
    printf("Enter age of user: ");
    scanf("%d", &name.age);
    printf("Enter user id: ");
    scanf("%d", &name.userId);
    printf("Enter weight of the user: ");
    scanf("%f", &name.weight);
    
    exit(0);
}

BUILD FAILED (exit value 2, total time: 260ms)

1. You have too many things called name.
2. You don't need & on your variables when using %s to read into a char array.
3. Put your global variables in main.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

struct user {
    int userId;
    char firstname[20];
    char lastname[20];
    int age;
    float weight;
};

struct user infomation;

void addusr_Wizard(struct user infomation, char n[])
{
    strcpy(infomation.firstname, n);
    printf(" name is %s\n", infomation.firstname);

    /*
    printf("Enter last name of the user: ");
    scanf("%s", &name.lastname);
    printf("Enter age of user: ");
    scanf("%d", &name.age);
    printf("Enter user id: ");
    scanf("%d", &name.userId);
    printf("Enter weight of the user: ");
    scanf("%f", &name.weight);
    * **/
}

int main (int argc, char **argv )
{
char c[10];
char n[20];

    system("clear");
    printf("Want to add a user? (Y OR N)");
    scanf("%s", c);

    if(strcmp( "y" , c) == 0)
    {
        printf("\nEnter name of the user: ");
        scanf("%s", n);
        addusr_Wizard( infomation, n );
    }
     else
    {
        printf("OK! As you wish!\n");
    }
return 0;
}

Code:

Want to add a user? (Y OR N)y

Enter name of the user: bob
 name is bob

how's that?
You'll still need to figure out how to get the rest of your members filled.

Well that explains your other thread, if you thought this
