c issue

Question

I have a question, for example, the user writes his birthday in this format "dd/mm/yyyy" I wanna extract dd as integer the same for mm and yyyy I found strtok+atoi but it doesn't satisfy my curiosity.in python it's a basic instruction though in C they make it harder

Answer 1

Use scanf().

int b_day = 0, b_month = 0, b_year = 0;
puts("Enter your birthdate in the format dd/mm/yyyy:");
if(scanf("%d/%d/%d", &b_day, &b_month, &b_year) != 3) {
fprintf(stderr, "Wrong format\n");
return 1;
}
