Thread: structures and functions

I am trying to create a program with a structure that stores the information of a student. It must also include a function that prompts the user for the information of the student. The functions only argument is to be pointer to the structure. I am completly lost, (as I think my code shows). Can someone please tell where I've screwed up at? My compiler won't even compile this( I'm using Borland 5). I've never had that happen before.

Code:

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

typedef struct
   {
	char firstname[25];
	char lastname[25];
   }name_struct;

typedef struct
   {
	name_struct	name;
	char		ssn[10];
	char		phone[10];
	int		quiz[5];
   }student;

void get_student_details(student*);

main()
{
     student student;
     get_student_details(&student);
    printf("\n\nThe student's name is: %s %s", student.firstname, student.lastname);
}
	void get_student_details(student* student_details)
	{
	      printf("\nEnter the first name of the student:");
		scanf("%s", student_details->firstname);
	      printf("\nEnter the last name of the student:");
		scanf("%s", student_details->lastname);
	      printf("\nEnter the social security number:");
		scanf("%s", student_details->ssn);
	      printf("\nEnter the student's phone number:");
		scanf("%s", student_details->phone);
	      printf("\nEnter the student's 5 quiz grades:");
		for(number=0; number<5; ++number)
		  {
		    printf("\nEnter the grade for %d:", quiz+1);
		     scanf("%lf", student_details->quiz);
		  }
	}

Quzah,
I made the change, of course I feel stupid, I always seem to miss the obvious. But it still won't compile. Is it my program or has my compiler finally had enough of C.

Thanks for your help, I would be lost without ya'll.

Sorry, here's the latest.

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
typedef struct
{
	char firstname[25];
	char lastname[25];
}name_struct;

typedef struct
{
	name_struct	name;
	char		ssn[10];
	char		phone[10];
	int		quiz[5];
}student;

void get_student_details(student*);

main()
{
	student student;
	get_student_details(&student);
	printf("\n\nThe student's name is: %s %10s", student.firstname, student.lastname);
}
	void get_student_details(student* student_details);
	{
		printf("\nEnter the first name of the student:");
		scanf("%s", student_details->name.firstname);
		printf("\nEnter the last name of the student:");
		scanf("%s", student_details->name.lastname);
		printf("\nEnter the social security number:");
		scanf("%s", student_details->student.ssn);
		printf("\nEnter the student's phone number:");
		scanf("%s", student_details->student.phone);
		printf("\nEnter the student's 5 quiz grades:");
		for(number=0; number<5; ++number)
		  {
		    printf("\nEnter the grade for %d:", quiz+1);
		     scanf("%lf", student_details->student.quiz);
		  }
	}

Here's where I'm at now. I realized I had not declared 'number in my function, so I made that change also. But my compiler still starts but will not finishing compiling. I'm about ready to throw in the towel on this one. Structures have completly done me in.

Code:

#include<stdio.h>

typedef struct
{
	char firstname[25];
	char lastname[25];
}name_struct;

typedef struct
{
	name_struct	name;
	char		ssn[10];
	char		phone[10];
	int		quiz[5];
}student;

void get_student_details(student*);

main()
{
	student student;
	get_student_details(&student);
	printf("\n\nThe student's name is: %s %10s", student.firstname, student.lastname);
}
	void get_student_details(student* student_details);
	{
		int number;
		printf("\nEnter the first name of the student:");
		scanf("%s", student_details->name.firstname);
		printf("\nEnter the last name of the student:");
		scanf("%s", student_details->name.lastname);
		printf("\nEnter the social security number:");
		scanf("%s", student_details->student.ssn);
		printf("\nEnter the student's phone number:");
		scanf("%s", student_details->student.phone);
		printf("\nEnter the student's 5 quiz grades:");
		for(number=0; number<=5; ++number)
		  {
		    printf("\nEnter the grade for %d:", number+1);
		     scanf("%lf", &student_details->student.quiz[number]);
		  }
		  return 0;
	}
