[SOLVED] "That's odd" in C programming

Question

Hi,

I'm trying to solve "That's odd" using C. From my understanding, the first input is N length. For example, if the input is 5, that means the length is 5, and I need to evaluate the next 5 numbers whether they are even or odd.

However, the first test case shows that the first input is 5,which means the length is 5, but the available data are only 2 (namely 190 and 88 in this test case).

1- Is my understanding regarding this question correct? (Eg. If the length is 5, then the next input should have 5 more input .)

2- If the length is 5, and the data input is only 190 and 80, how do I deal with the other 3 empty spaces? If I just use scanf to wait for the user input, I think the program will just wait and get stuck there as there is no further input.

Thanks in advance!

If you swipe/scroll down inside the input box on the test case 1 you will see the other three numbers, they are there: 43, 53, 63.

Use diego Code's approach to read n and n lines.

Thanks Mihai Apostol! Didn't know that!

Answer 3

1. You are right... But..

2. It worked fine with something like:

scanf("%d", &q);

for(i = 0; i < q; i++){
scanf("%d", &num);
....
}

so, they made the test case #1 with 3 empty lines ( ?)

Answer 4

Mihai Apostol Thanks! I didn't know that it's possible. It's because there's no arrow or some kind of indication available.

So it means for N length , there will be N number of data.

diego Code Thanks for the tips. I finally managed to solve it but the code is slightly different .Just to clarify your code ,is it for unknown number of input?

You're welcome.

If diego Code allows me I will explain his code. No, it is for defined number of inputs, only he used q instead of n for the name of the variabile. So he first reads q and then reads q numbers in a loop.

Mihai Apostol Owhh..understood! Thanks! I've marked this as solved.
