Question

I need my scanf to stop when it findes a spac/blank.

For exsample

If I type in “E E”, I only need 1 “E”, so it has to stop at space/blank.

char end[] = "E";
char end1[] = "End";
char info[] = "";

while(run) {
 scanf("%s", &info);
 ...
 else if(strcmp(info, end) == 0 || strcmp(info, end1) == 0) {
    end_of_turn();
 }
 ...
}

Now the problem here is that If I type in “E E”, it will run “end_of_turn” twice.

Does anyone know why it is so?

Edit:

Okay I can’t break the while loop, because that would stop the program.

Answer 1

use break to break out of the while loop? after calling end_of_turn()

Or use a goto statement if you do not want to break out of the loop.

You can also get all the characters from the input stream and then discard them using the code: while(getchar() != '\n') ;
