Question

I have to use scanf() for accepting name of user in NSString object.
If i use %s then it will show me error. My Code is :

NSString *name;
scanf("%s",&name); //It is showing error
scanf("%@",&name); //It also show me error

What I should do?

You can’t use scanf(), since it can’t take a NSString object as an argument. You can first scan characters in a char * c-‘string’ and after that create a NSString from it with
- (id)initWithCString:(const char *)nullTerminatedCString encoding:(NSStringEncoding)encoding.
