need help with typedef enum

[Lince]

hello my code is below I've pretty much finished what I need to do, however, I need to make my printDateInfo function output the name of the month instead of the number. So, I input 1 for the month when scanning and when the print function executes "January" should be printed instead of "1" like it is now.

// Compiler Includes
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

//User defined definitions
typedef enum {
	JAN = 1, FEB, MAR, APR, MAY, JUN, JUL, AUG, SEP, OCT, NOV, DEC
} MONTH_TYPE;

typedef struct {
	char make[20];
	char model[20];
	int odometer;
} AUTO_TYPE;

typedef struct {
	int month;
	int day;
	int year;
} DATE_TYPE;

typedef struct {
	double tankCap;
	double curTankLevel;
} TANK_TYPE;


// Function Prototypes 
void PrintCarInfo (AUTO_TYPE carToPrint);

AUTO_TYPE ScanCarByValue(void);

void PrintDateInfo(DATE_TYPE  ManDateToPrint, DATE_TYPE PurDateToPrint);

DATE_TYPE ScanDateByValue(void);

void PrintTankInfo(TANK_TYPE tankToPrint);

TANK_TYPE ScanTankByValue(void);
 

	// function main
int main(void){ 
 
	//Local variables
	AUTO_TYPE carOne = {"\0", "\0",0};
	DATE_TYPE carOneManDate = { 0,0,0};
	DATE_TYPE carOnePurDate = { 0,0,0};
	TANK_TYPE carOneTank = {0.0, 0.0};

  //begin
	carOne = ScanCarByValue();

	printf("enter the manufacture date\n");
	carOneManDate = ScanDateByValue();
	printf("enter the purchase date\n");
	carOnePurDate = ScanDateByValue();
	printf("enter the fuel measurements\n");
	carOneTank = ScanTankByValue();

	PrintCarInfo(carOne);
	PrintDateInfo(carOneManDate, carOnePurDate);
	PrintTankInfo(carOneTank);

	return 0;
 
} // end function main 


 
void PrintCarInfo (AUTO_TYPE carToPrint) { 
  
	printf("\n==================================================================\n");
  printf("MAKE: %s            MODEL: %s        Odometer: %d\n",carToPrint.make, 
         carToPrint.model, carToPrint.odometer);
} 

void PrintDateInfo (DATE_TYPE ManDateToPrint, DATE_TYPE PurDateToPrint) {
	printf("\n------------------------------------------------------------------\n");
	printf("MANUFACTURED ON: %d, %d, %d   PURCHASED ON: %d, %d, %d\n", ManDateToPrint.month,
		ManDateToPrint.day, ManDateToPrint.year,PurDateToPrint.month,PurDateToPrint.day,
		PurDateToPrint.year);
}

void PrintTankInfo(TANK_TYPE tankToPrint) {
	printf("\nFUEL CAPACITY IS: %.2f GALLONS\t", tankToPrint.tankCap);
	printf("CURRENT FUEL LEVEL IS: %.2f%%\n", ((tankToPrint.curTankLevel/tankToPrint.tankCap)*100));
}


AUTO_TYPE ScanCarByValue (void) { 

	AUTO_TYPE inputCar = {"<NULL>", "<NULL>", 0};

		printf("Enter car make: ");
		scanf("%s", inputCar.make);
		printf("Enter car model: ");
		scanf("%s", inputCar.model);
		printf("Enter odometer: ");
		scanf("%d", &inputCar.odometer);

 return inputCar;
 
} // end function ScanCarByValue 

 DATE_TYPE ScanDateByValue(void) {

	 DATE_TYPE inputDate = {0,0,0};

		printf("Enter month: ");
		scanf("%d", &inputDate.month);
		printf("Enter date:  ");
		scanf("%d", &inputDate.day);
		printf("Enter Year:  ");
		scanf("%d", &inputDate.year);

	return inputDate;
 }

 TANK_TYPE ScanTankByValue(void) {

	TANK_TYPE inputTank = { 0.0, 0.0};

		printf("enter tank capacity: ");
		scanf("%lf", &inputTank.tankCap);
		printf("enter current level: ");
		scanf("%lf", &inputTank.curTankLevel);
	
	return inputTank;
 }

So where is your list of strings which you reference by the corresponding enum number?

const char *month[] = {
          "January",
          //...
};

Make sure you change your printf() function according to what you declared your array as.

i guess he has miss understood the way how enum works
