The problem is taht I want to wirte the contents of the entire array to the file and also to didplay it. And there is a major error in line 3 I can figure out what's wrong can somebady please help.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int displaycar (Car car[]);
#define s 20
#define sof 10
typedef struct {
int day;
int month;
int year;
} Date;
typedef struct {
float cost;
} Price;
typedef struct {
char make[s];
Date purchaseDate;
Date manufactureDate;
Price purchasePrice;
} Car;
int main()
{
Car car[sof];
int i,j;
FILE *outp;
for(i=0; i<sof; i++)
{
printf("Please Enter the name of the car: ");
scanf("%s",&car[i].make);
printf(" Please enter the day of purchase: ");
scanf("%d", &car[i].purchaseDate.day);
printf(" Please enter the month of purchase: ");
scanf("%d", &car[i].purchaseDate.month);
printf(" Please enter the year of purchase: ");
scanf("%d", &car[i].purchaseDate.year);
printf(" Please enter the day of manufacture: ");
scanf("%d", &car[i].manufactureDate.day);
printf(" Please enter the month of manufacture: ");
scanf("%d", &car[i].manufactureDate.month);
printf(" Please enter the year of manufacture: ");
scanf("%d", &car[i].manufactureDate.year);
printf(" Please enter the price the car was bought for: ");
scanf("%f", &car[i].purchasePrice.cost);
outp =fopen("c:\\Car.txt", "w");
for(j=0; j<=sof; j++)
{
fprintf(char_txt_outp,"%c\n, car[j]);
}
}
displaycar(car);
return 0;
}
int displaycar (Car car[])
{
printf(" The name of the car is %s \n", car->make);
printf(" The car was purchased on the %d of the %d of the year %d\n", (car->purchaseDate).day, (car->purchaseDate).month, (car->purchaseDate).year);
printf(" The car was manufactured on the %d of the %d month of the year %d \n",(car->manufactureDate).day, (car->manufactureDate).month, (car->manufactureDate).year);
printf(" The car was bought for %lf \n",(car->purchasePrice).cost);
return 0;
}
