the main difference between gets() and scanf() function is that while getting any input as a stream of characters or as a string using scanf() , the end termination character is a blank space or an enter key for scanf() , so upto blank space it will be saving it in the memory...... SHORTLY it ignores the characters comin after and with blank spaces........
in gets() , it allows with the blank spaces and the termination condition is a enter key (\n) ,
but a inside gets() function , surely they would have used scanf() function , but the difference is that the input inside gets() would go character by character , so only gets() can allow with the blank spaces...........
thank u

Answer / niraj kumar
Main difference between '%s' and 'gets' is:
%s ends taking input when it encounter whitespace, new line(
) or EOF.
gets takes whitespace and stops taking input when it encounters new line(
) or EOF.
