char inputString[100] = {0};

To get string input from the keyboard which one of the
following is better?

1) gets(inputString)

2) fgets(inputString, sizeof(inputString), fp)

Answer Posted / susie

Answer : & Explanation:

The second one is better because gets(inputString) doesn't
know the size of the string passed and so, if a very big
input (here, more than 100 chars) the charactes will be
written past the input string. When fgets is used with stdin
performs the same operation as gets but is safe.

I need your help, i need a Turbo C code for this problem.. hope u'll help me guys.? Your program will have a 3x3 array. The user will input the sum of each row and each column. Then the user will input 3 values and store them anywhere, or any location or index, temporarily in the array. Your program will supply the remaining six (6) values and determine the exact location of each value in the array. Example: Input: Sum of row 1: 6 Sum of row 2: 15 Sum of row 3: 24 Sum of column 1: 12 Sum of column 2: 15 Sum of column 3: 18 Value 1: 3 Value 2: 5 Value 3: 6 Output: Sum of Row 1 2 3 6 4 5 6 15 7 8 9 24 Sum of Column 12 15 18 Note: Your program will not necessary sort the walues in the array Thanks..
