The question: Read up to 6 pairs of names and ages into TWO separate arrays, and use a linear search to locate a target name and to print that person’s age. The two arrays are called names and ages:
I am getting lots of errors .. I am not sure about passing the arrays into functions..
#include <stdio.h>
#define ASIZE 20
#define RECSIZE 6
struct record {
char name[ASIZE];
int age[ASIZE];
};
struct record na[RECSIZE];
int linearSearch(struct record *a, char *find)
{
int x;
for(x=0; x<RECSIZE; x++)
{
// if(na[x].name==find[x])
if(a->name[x]==find[x])
{
return x;
}
}
return -1;
}
int main()
{
int i;
for (i=0; i<RECSIZE; i++)
{
printf("Enter name: ");
scanf("%s",na[i].name);
printf("Enter age: ");
scanf("%i",&na[i].age);
}
printf("Enter the Search name: ");
char temp[ASIZE];
scanf("%s",temp[ASIZE]);
int result;
result=linearSearch(&na, &temp[]);
printf("%i", result);
return 0;
}
Please help.
The error is in: result=linearSearch(&na, &temp[]);
