Simple C problem - please help

doh!

THANKS :)

Ok, now i have a harder problem.

If i enter a number higher than 50, like 51 for example, it correctly says that it must be between 1-50 then it asks for another input. I then input an appropriate number like 5 then it outputs:

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

0, 1, ... ,49, 50, 51

For some reason, it remembers the first incorrect output then loops through that.

I took a look at it in the debugger and just as it is about to leave the function, num changes to 51 or whatever number i input incorreclty. It seems flushall() doesn't work here.

Any help?

Thanks

if(num<1 || num>50);
{
printf("\nNumber must be between 1 and 50\n\n");
number();
return;
}

But the right answer is to mount a while() loop aroung the whole function body and use continue instead of the return.

This is killing me

Thanks deffer, i missed your post :)

Any idea why this happens? Shouldn't flushall remove the 51?

Any further info would be great.

Cool, thanks for that :)

0) For Beginners, please.

1) Don't call functions for flow control. Call them to delegate work. The called function will, after all, eventually return.

I really don't understand why "goto thinking" is so prevalent among beginners. It's as though noone is capable of explaining in their tutorials how functions actually work.
