please help.

hello guys. im in need of some urgent help over here. the case so far is like this:
the code below already checks if the user inputs a letter, it will be discarded. only numbers allowed.

now i need to enter another checking solution such as if (guess[0]>6)
in other words. i would like the invalid entry to pop up if a number aboe 6 is entered.

could someone please help me implement this into my code below. ive tried many solutions but all not working fine..

Code:

---

valid1 = 0;
while (!valid1) {       
        printf("ENTER GUESS 1: ");
        fflush (stdout);
        if (scanf("%d",&guess[0]) == 1)
        valid1 = 1;
        else
        printf("INVALID ENTRY, PLEASE TRY AGAIN\n\n");
        while (getchar() != '\n');
}

---

many thnx to anyone who helps.
greatly appreciated.

PS. sorry about the heading i was going to add more details but clicked on post too quickly.

Indenting properly is a good idea.

Code:

---

valid1 = 0;
while (!valid1) {       
        printf("ENTER GUESS 1: ");
        fflush (stdout);
        if (scanf("%d",&guess[0]) == 1)
                valid1 = 1;
        else
                printf("INVALID ENTRY, PLEASE TRY AGAIN\n\n");
        while (getchar() != '\n');
}

the above code works 100%!!!

its just that i would like it to print out the invalid entry message to a number greater than 6 aswell in addition.

ITS SORTED!!
solved it.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

for future references to anyone.
i just added this line below the existing if statement:

Code:

---

if (guess[0] <= 6) //if loop checks if input is smaller or equal to 6

You can use if/else if.
