Traverse FILE line by line using fscanf

Question

Ok so i have a text file database.txt.

Each line is a user with the format below

\"John Smith\"| 4| 80.00| \"123 Lollipop Lane\"| \"New Jersey\"| \         


        

Answer 1

You should put a blank after specifier "%[^\n] " or use "%[^\n]\n". Both will allow you to skip the newline character.

fscanf(database, "%[\n] ", buffer);

or

fscanf(database, "%[\n]\n", buffer);
