Thread: Limiting input

This is from an old post of mine:

It doesn't look very nice but it works fine.

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>

int main()
{
	int c;

	c = getch();
	printf("%c\n", c);
	.....statements....
	return 0;
}

If you want more than 1 character use a for to loop each character and print each character at the time which it was given.

for more than one character you could use:

fgets( string, 10, stdin);

that would accept only the first nine characters from the keyboard, and replsce the last character with a '\0'.
Only useful if you're entering a string, other wise I'd go with the 'for' loop.
