scanf |
Function (Macro) |
Console input parsing function.
Works like sscanf, but reads the input from the keyboard using
getsn rather than from a buffer of type char *
. [ENTER]
is interpreted as EOF.
The input is echoed on the screen. No newline will be output at the end of the
input, no matter whether it resulted from the user pressing [ENTER] or from a
format matching error.
The amount of possible user input is limited by available memory. scanf may also return 0 if there
was no memory left at all to allocate the temporary buffer.
Uses: getsn, sscanf, HeapAllocPtr, HeapFreePtr, HeapMax
