Hello all..
Code:void print_commands(void) { printf("\nCommands to type:\n"); printf("\nMEETING LIST"); printf("\nMEETING ADD # MM DD YYYY"); printf("\nPRINT FILE #"); printf("\nQUIT"); printf("\n\n"); }
I am looking to fix this line please,
to outputCode:printf("\nQUIT");
Thanks.Code:"QUIT"
You can escape double quotes with a backslash like so:
Code:printf("\n\"QUIT\"");
Adrian, couldn't get that line to work, with or without the '\n'.
So, you likely did it wrong or you have a defective compiler.

That's feedback with very low value. It is only useful if there was an obvious error in that example, if not, as stahta01 implied, it probably means that you made a mistake, but no one else knows what mistake that is because you didn't provide any information.Originally Posted by _jamie
Post the smallest and simplest program that you expect to compile and run with what Guest suggested, and then post the compile error or the actual (incorrect) output from running that program. For example, this is the smallest and simplest compilable program that demonstrates that I could get that line to work:
Compiling and running the above program gave me this output with a leading blank line:Code:#include <stdio.h> int main(void) { printf("\n\"QUIT\""); return 0; }
Hence, you can see that Guest's suggestion works as you want, so if it doesn't work, then barring a defective compiler, the error is entirely yours.Code:"QUIT"

I've got the issue to work all. It looks like I was having an issue with my code editor (vim). Program outputs "QUIT" successfully.
