This question already has an answer here:

  • Reading string from input with space character? [duplicate] 14 answers

I want to write a sub-program in which a user can input their comment. I use scanf("%s", X) and let them input a comment, but it can only store the word before a space bar in the string.

How can I solve this problem in order to store a whole sentence into a string or a file?

My code is presented below:

FILE *fp;
char comment[100];
fp=fopen("comment.txt","a");
printf("You can input your comment to our system or give opinion to the musics :\n");
scanf("%s",comment);
fputs(comment,fp);

回答1:

Rather than the answers that tell you not to use scanf(), you can just the the Negated scanset option of scanf():

scanf("%99[^\n]",comment); // This will read into the string: comment 
                           // everything from the next 99 characters up until 
                           // it gets a newline


回答2:

scanf() with %s as format specifier reads a sequence of characters starting from the first non-whitespace character until (1) another whitespace character or (2) upto the field width if specified (e.g. scanf("%127s",str); -- read 127 characters and appends null byte as 128th), whichever comes first. And then automatically append null byte at the end. The pointer passed my be large enough to hold the input sequence of characters.

You can use fgets to read the whole line:

fgets(comment, sizeof comment, stdin);

Note that fgets reads the newline character as well. You may want to get rid of the newline character from the comment.



回答3:

instead of scanf use fgets on stdin in order to read the whole line.



回答4:

You can make use of gets(), getline() functions to read string from stdin.
