fgets moving on to a newline

im making a quiz right now and i have two txt files one with questions another with answers
this is a piece of my code

Code:

---

do{
        fgets(vraag,100,vragen);  /*neem een vraag uit vragen.txt*/
        printf("%s\n",vraag);      /*print de vraag*/
 
        fgets(antwoord,100,antwoorden); /*haal antwoord uit de file*/
        gets(antwoord_eigen);              /*scanf antwoord als een string*/                       
       
        if(strcmp(antwoord,antwoord_eigen)==0){  /*vergelijk de antwoorden uit txt en scanf*/
                                            printf("Het antwoord is correct\n");}
        if(strcmp(antwoord,antwoord_eigen)==1){
            printf("Het antwoord is verkeerd het juiste antwoord was:%s",antwoord);}
        }
        while(strcmp(antwoord_eigen,stop)==0); /*typt men stop dan stopt het programma*/

sry for the probably unreadable language
vraag=question and antwoord=answer
anyway i manage to get one question out of the txt file and one answer out of the txt file but now i want to move on to the next line where the next question is and the next answer so i have to
do something with fgets(vraag,dunno probably here something to go to the next line or...,vragen);
and the same thing for the answers

Code:

---

gets(antwoord_eigen);

Use fgets() - it will save you lots of trouble!

Make sure your string is big enough to hold the biggest single line in the text file! If fgets() reaches the '\n' at the end of a line, it will read in the next line when you call it again.

actually i just wanna clear evrything that is in the string antwoord en vraag en then i wanna move a line down in each txt file where the next question and next answer is ...
mayb i should add all the files

No, problem.

Code:

---

void clear_string(char *mystring, int size)
{
    int i;
    for(i = 0; i < size; i++)
    {
        mystring[i] = '\0';
    }
}

@fgets(): look in my posting above ... I've edited it.

Code:

---

if(strcmp(antwoord,antwoord_eigen)==0){  /*vergelijk de antwoorden uit txt en scanf*/
    printf("Het antwoord is correct\n");}
if(strcmp(antwoord,antwoord_eigen)==1){
    printf("Het antwoord is verkeerd het juiste antwoord was:%s",antwoord);}

---

Remember: strcmp() returns 0 if the two strings match but it returns !=0 if the strings don't!
(if string1 > string2 --> returns >0 and if string1 < string2 --> returns <0)

It is not necessary to call strcmp() two times. You can use if ... else ...

Code:

---

if(strcmp(antwoord,antwoord_eigen)==0)
{
    printf("Het antwoord is correct\n");
}
else
{
    printf("Het antwoord is verkeerd het juiste antwoord was:%s",antwoord);
}
