Hello ne-er do wells,

I could use a hand with this assignment I've got. I had it all good to go until the professor requested I try rewriting it using functions. Ok no sweat...what I can't figure out now is how to return a string from this function. I know the answer is on the tip of my nose but I'm starting to go cross-eyed...The function needs to accept the full name (first and last with whitespace) and return the full name to another function.

Code:
void studentName (void)
{
	char name[50];

	printf	("\n\nPlease enter student's name:");
	scanf	( "%[^\n]", name );
	printf	("\n\nStudent's name is %s:", name);
	
	}
Thanks in advance!!!!
