    Lightbulb Input for C program

    I am using scanf for getting user's input. Is it possible to read data from another file using scanf ( not fscanf) by using piping facility in Linux?

    Yes - try it.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
