while loop char input

Hey guys is there anything wrong with how im getting the input for a single character because for some reason the if statement is not working properly.

Even if i do enter the correct input it still prints as invalid?

Code:

---

char guessType()
{
  char type;
  int valid;
 
  printf("Enter guess type((f)lag, (u)ncover or(s)weep:\n");
 
  valid = 0;
 
  while((type = fgetc(stdin) != '\n' && type != EOF))
  {
       
      if(type != 's' || type !='u' || type != 'f')
      {
          printf("invalid");
         
      }
      break;
  }

---

Your if() statement should test as follows:

Code:

---

if(type != 's' && type !='u' && type != 'f')

---

>char type;
>type = fgetc(stdin)
fgetc() doesn't return a char, it returns an int.
