Switch statement always including both the case and default

Question

When I compile this program, it outputs both the corresponding switch case and the default tag contents, the only value it doesn\'t print out for is January, any help would

Answer 1

You just need an extra case to handle the stray '\n' that comes from you pressing enter at your terminal. January should work if you just type 1

Edit:Actually I just tested it on Linux and it works flawlessly, there might be some minor differences on Windows, though.

while (month != EOF)
{
        switch (month)
        {

            case 49:
            month2 = getchar();

            switch (month2)
            {
                case 10:
                    printf("January \n");
                    break;
                case 48:
                    printf("October \n");
                    break;
                case 49:
                    printf("November \n");
                    break;
                case 50:
                    printf("December \n");
                    break;
            }
            break;

                case 50:
                    printf("February \n");
                    break;
                case 51:
                    printf("March \n");
                    break;
                case 52:
                    printf("April \n");
                    break;
                case 53:
                    printf("May \n");
                    break;
                case 54:
                    printf("June \n");
                    break;
                case 55:
                    printf("July \n");
                    break;
                case 56:
                    printf("August \n");
                    break;
                case 57:
                    printf("Septembe \n");
                    break;
                // Filter out stray \n
                case '\n':
                    break;
                default: printf("Error \n");





            }
            month = getchar();
}


system("PAUSE");
return (0);
