Simple thing

I found this inside a scanf...

%[^/n]

I've been searching what it's mean. Would you help me out?

Read a string until a newline is found, I don't think it's part of the standard - more of a compiler extension.

[] is a list of characters to accept, ^ means the characters in the brackets won't be accepted.

Basically,

Code:

---

%s = %[]

---

Code:

---

%1024s = %1024[]

---

So if you only wanted to stop reading at a comma, fullstop or space it'd look like:

Code:

---

%[^,. ]

---

Or if you only wanted to read commas, fullstops or spaces,

Code:

---

%[,. ]

It is part of C99, at least.
