Help with struct program

[ffxfreak]

Ok I have the majority of this program complete. I've gotten the program to print all of the names along with all of the salaries.

One question...how would I go about calculating who has the largest salary and getting the program to print only that?

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
      
   typedef struct{
    
   char name[31];
   float wages;
   } people_t;
      
int main() {  
    
   people_t people[30];
   int i = 0;
   char person[31];
       
   FILE *inFile1;
   FILE *inFile2;
         
   inFile1 = fopen("people.txt", "r");
   if(inFile1 == NULL) {
      printf("%s failed.  Exiting program\n", "people.txt");
      exit(1);
   }
       
   inFile2 = fopen("wages.txt", "r");
   if(inFile2 == NULL) {
      printf("%s failed.  Exiting program\n", "wages.txt");
      exit(2);
   }
   
   fscanf(inFile1, "%s", &person);
   while( i < 20 && !feof(inFile1)){
       strcpy(people[i].name, person);
       fscanf(inFile1, "%s", &person);
       i++;
        }
   
   i = 0;
   fscanf(inFile2, "%f", &people[i].wages);
   while( i < 20 && !feof(inFile2)){
       i++;
       fscanf(inFile2, "%f", &people[i].wages);
   }
   fclose(inFile1);
   fclose(inFile2);
    
   i = 0;
   printf("\t Name \t \t \t Wages\n");
   while (i < 20) {
      printf("\t %s \t \t %.2f\n", people[i].name, people[i].wages);
      i++;
   }
         
   return 0;
   
}

There's a magical thing called a for loop. It doesn't answer your question but your program could use a few of em.

[whiteflags]

// In an array of people
float max = people[1]
for each person in people array
   if max < person's wage
      max = person's wage

// when the loop breaks, max has the highest salary
