Problem with String input

Question

Hello. I'm writing a program and I need the user to input a line like this (1, Stelios, 1.81, Greece).
First thing I thought was use gets() because I want to accept space inputs . After a few tries compiling it without success I read that it was removed from C 11 because of dangers.
Next thing I did was use scanf() and fgets () but it skips input like they were never there and nothing seems to work.

char line[50];

gets(line);

fgets(line,50,stdin);

scanf ("%[^\n]",line);

scanf ("%[^\n]%*c",line);

Thats everything I tried.

You can try using getchar.

//create your own function
void get(char *buffer, const int nb) {
int n = 0;
char c = getchar();
while (c!='\n' && n < nb) {
buffer[n] = c;
n++;
c = getchar();
}
}
