So this is the code, its pretty simple, but why isn't the fgets prompted again after the first loop? and age is. (And weirdly it works with scanf("%s",&name_temp) but I need to grab other characters too like áéíóúÇ, spaces, so it would be better with fgets)
int menu_option = 0;
char name_temp[80] = "";
int age_temp = 0;
while(menu_option != 9){
//strcpy(name_temp,"");
printf("Type your name\n");
fgets(name_temp, 80, stdin);
printf("\nType your age\n");
scanf("%d", &age_temp);
}
(moved from the deleted answer)
Guys thanks for your answers, but I don't think you guys understood my question, test this code that I sent, and you will see that instead of appearing the thing in the Terminal for you to type, it is just ignored after the first while loop.
What I wanted is that after the first loop (while) it came back and asked again the name of the person and the person using the program would have to type again. but instead of that, after the first time of the loop, it just doesn't ask for you to type anything, the fgets is completely ignored.
please try the code and say what can I do.
I tried the freopen thing and did not work.
You should open stdin in binary mode. Use freopen(NULL, "rb", stdin) to do this.
See C read binary stdin for more details.
