student structure

**rick1984** · 08-05-2003

this is suppose to read the following information from the keyboard for a set of students:
Name
Age
GPA

this is how far i got, i made lines to the information, i just cant figure out, any help would be helpful, any input or ideas at all.
thanks

Code:

typedef struct
{
	char Name[50];
	_int age_;
	_double GPA_;
}Students;

int main()
{
	FILE *fpout;

	fpout = ______________________;

	if(__________)
	{
		printf("file output.txt can not be opened!");
		return(100);
	}

	Students ______________;

	for(int i = 1; i < 4; i++)
	{
		printf("Please enter the student's name:\n");
		scanf("_%d_", _&name__);
		printf("Please enter the student's Age:\n");
		scanf("%d", _&age_);
		printf("Please enter the student's GPA:\n");
		scanf("_%d_", _&GPA_);
		fprintf(fpout, "__Student %d %d%d", name, age, GPA__", 
			_________________________________, students[i].GPA);
	}

	return 0;
}

get rid of the _'s

int not _int
double not _double

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
typedef struct
{
	char Name[50];
	int age;
	double GPA;
}Students;

int main()
{
	FILE *fpout;
	char ch;
	fpout = fopen("myfile.txt","w");

	if(!fpout)
	{
		printf("file output.txt can not be opened!");
		return(0);
	}

	Students myStudents;

	for(int i = 1; i < 4; i++)
	{
		
		
		myStudents.GPA=0;
		printf("Please enter the student's name:\n");
		scanf("%s", &myStudents.Name);

		printf("Please enter the student's Age:\n");
		scanf("%d", &myStudents.age);
		printf("Please enter the student's GPA:\n");
		scanf("%f", &myStudents.GPA);
		fprintf(fpout, "  Student %s %d %f\n", myStudents.Name, myStudents.age, myStudents.GPA);
	}
	fclose(fpout);
	return 0;
}

For some reason the GPA thingy doesn't work... that's really strange..

scanf("%s", &myStudents.Name);

should be

scanf("%s", myStudents.Name);

you don't use the & with an array, such as a string.
