Program doesn't prompt user for last input, but loops for second book - Data structures

Question

I\'m learning about data structures. I\'ve written a simple program that asks the user to fill in information on a 3 book purchase. Like name of book, author, cost and pages.

Answer 1

Change like this

 for(ctr = 0; ctr < 3; ctr++)
    {
        printf("What is the name of the book #%d?\n", (ctr+1));
        gets(books[ctr].title);
        puts("Who is the author? ");
        gets(books[ctr].author);
        puts("How much did the book cost? ");
        scanf("%lf$", &books[ctr].price); //Changed
        puts("How many pages in the book? ");
        scanf(" %d", &books[ctr].pages);
        getchar();  // Clears last newline for the next loop
    }

scanf man page
