Thread: structure arrays to functions

I am trying to figure out how this works. So far I thought I understood it and yet it wont compile. ?? (this is only a small piece of the whole program, trying to just get one piece to work at at time) Any suggestion, tip or hints would be appreciated.

[code]

#include <stdio.h>

#define NUM_EMPL 5
#define OVERTIME_RATE 1.5
#define STD_WORK_WEEK 40.000


struct employee
{
unsigned long int clock; /*clock number*/
float wage; /*hourly pay*/
float hours; /*hours worked*/
float overtime; /*overtime hours above 40*/
float total; /*regular 40 hour pay*/
float gross; /*total pay including any overtime*/
};


void get_input (struct employee emp_num[], emp_hrs[])
{
/*Local Variable Declaration */

int count; /* Variable used in loop counter */

/* Loop for number of employees defined in NUM_EMPL */
/* Gets number of employee hours and stores them in an array. */

for (count = 0; count < NUM_EMPL; ++count)
{
printf("Enter Hours for Employee #%lu: ",
emp_num[count].clock);
scanf ("%f", &emp_hrs[count].hours);
}

printf("\n\n\n");
}



main ()
{
struct employee data[NUM_EMPL];

int n;

get_input(data,NUM_EMPL)

for (n = 0, n < NUM_EMPL, n++)
{
printf ("employee clock = %lu employee hours = %f\n", data[n].clock, data[n].hours);
}
retun 0;

}

}

Now I am getting strage output.

Code:

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

#define NUM_EMPL 5
#define OVERTIME_RATE 1.5
#define STD_WORK_WEEK 40.000

{
	unsigned long int clock;   /*clock number*/
	float wage;          /*hourly pay*/
	float hours;          /*hours worked*/
	float overtime;       /*overtime hours above 40*/
    float total;          /*regular 40 hour pay*/
	float gross;         /*total pay including any overtime*/
};


void get_input (struct employee emp_num[], struct employee emp_hrs[])
{
  /*Local Variable Declaration */

    int count; /* Variable used in loop counter */

     /* Loop for number of employees defined in NUM_EMPL */
     /* Gets number of employee hours and stores them in an array. */

    for (count = 0; count < NUM_EMPL; ++count)
      {
        printf("Enter Hours for Employee #%lu: ",
                emp_num[count].clock);
        scanf ("%f", &emp_hrs[count].hours);
      }

  printf("\n\n\n");
}

struct employee emp_data[NUM_EMPL] =
    {{98401, 10.60, 0, 0, 0, 0},
    {526488, 9.75, 0, 0, 0, 0},
    {765349, 10.50, 0, 0, 0, 0},
    {34645, 12.25, 0, 0, 0, 0},
    {127615, 9.35, 0, 0, 0, 0}};


main ()
{
     struct employee data[NUM_EMPL], data2[NUM_EMPL];
     
     int count;
     
     get_input(data,data2);
     
     printf ("\n");

       for (count = 0; count < NUM_EMPL; count++)
     {
          printf ("employee clock = %lu    employee hours = %f\n", data[count].clock, data2[count].hours);
     }
system("PAUSE"); 
return 0;

}

Specify the number of digits after the decimal point by adding the precision value.
%f.2 = 2 decimal places, etc...

Code:

printf ("employee clock = %lu    employee hours = %.2f\n", data[count].clock, data2[count].hours);

I found that and several other errors I am still getting strange output.. I have completed my program but for some reason my "clock" is not passing the correct data.

}

i also just fixed this.. and still getting wrong "clock" returned

Code:

 printf ("%06lu\t\t%7.2f\t\t%7.2f\t\t%7.2f\t\t%7.2f\n", emp[count].clock, 
     	              emp[count].wage, emp[count].hours, emp[count].overtime, emp[count].gross);

first of all you gave me a good laugh this morning with all your lol.. I needed that. 2nd I cant believe it was something so simple and I didnt see it. I think when looking at a program so long trying to figure things out you sometimes over look the simplest things. Also at times when you make changes you leave "stuff" behind that should be left.

Well my program works beautifully now. Thanks again.

Just had to comment on this, I couldn't agree more.
