scanf check in while loop to restrict integer input

问题

I am writing a code asking the user to input 10 integers, which are then fed to him backwards. I would like to create a "scanf check" to restrict character input. The while loop works insofar that it doesn't accept char, but it skips a integer input.

int main()
{

    int i = 0, number[10] = {0};
    char buf[128] = {0};

    for (i = 0; i < 10; i++)
    {
      printf("Please input number %d : ", i+1);

         while(scanf("%d", &number[i]) != 1)
      {
         scanf("%s", &buf);
         printf("Sorry, [%s] is not a number. Please input number %d : ", &buf, i);
      }
    }

    for (i = 0; i < 10; i++)
    {
    printf("\n Number %d is %d", (10-i), number[9-i]);
    }

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

As pointed out by H2CO3, don't use scanf, an alternative is fgets and strtol:

int i, number[10] = {0};
char buf[128], *p;

for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    printf("Please input number %d : ", i+1);
    while (1) {
        fgets(buf, sizeof(buf), stdin);
        if ((p = strchr(buf, '\n')) != NULL) {
            *p = '\0';
        }
        number[i] = (int)strtol(buf, &p, 10);
        if (p == buf || *p != '\0')  {
            printf("Sorry, [%s] is not a number. Please input number %d : ", buf, i + 1);
        } else {
            break;
        }  
    }
}
for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    printf("\n Number %d is %d", (10-i), number[9-i]);
}
return EXIT_SUCCESS;

The code works fine for integer also. The only mistake I found is while printing the sorry message, you are printing just i, it should be i+1.

    int i = 0, number[10] = {0};
    char buf[128] = {0};

    for (i = 0; i < 10; i++)
    {
      printf("Please input number %d : ", i+1);

         while(scanf("%d", &number[i]) != 1)
      {
         scanf("%s", &buf);
         printf("Sorry, [%s] is not a number. Please input number %d : ", &buf, i+1);
      }
    }

    for (i = 0; i < 10; i++)
    {
    printf("\n Number %d is %d", (10-i), number[9-i]);
    }
