I have a file (MyFile.txt) with N rows, wich one has 7 fields:
(id_artist: int, artist: char, id_song: int, song: char, duration: int, year: int, valoration: int)
They are all separated by a space (' '). I need a function that, given an id of a song (int), returns the duration of the song with the same id.
Here is my code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main()
{
int ID;
FILE *fp = fopen("MyFile.txt","w");
fprintf(fp,"100 Lennon 1100 Imagine 181 1977 1\n123 Queen 1122 KQueen 190 1983 2\n144 Nirvana 1144 Polly 175 1989 3\n");
fclose(fp);
printf("Ingrese id: ");
scanf("%d",&ID);
int res = duracion(ID);
printf(res);
return 0;
}
int duracion(int id){
char line[100], artista[30], nombre[30];
int id_art, id_song, dur, ano, valoracion;
FILE *file = fopen("MyFile.txt","r");
while( fgets(line,100,file) != NULL)
{
//printf(line);
sscanf(line,"%d %s %d %s %d %d %d", &id_art, artista, &id_song, nombre, &dur, &ano, &valoracion);
if(id == id_song){
return dur;
}
}
return 0;
}
The function actually finds the indicated row if it exists, but the function never returns 0 or 1. If I uncomment the commented line and search for a non-existintg id, I get an output like this:
100 Lennon 1100 Imagine 181 1977
d123 Queen 1122 KQueen 190 1983 2
<144 Nirvana 1144 Polly 175 1989 3

I debugged the code trying to find where the problem is but I don't get it.
printf(res); //needed specifier %d
You forgot format specfier in printf
here.
Note- Also you forgot to close file after opening it in your function.
