[c]#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
void main()
{
char arr[80];
int i,j,k;
strcpy(arr,"1 2 3");
sscanf(arr,"%d",&i);
sscanf(arr,"%d",&j);
sscanf(arr,"%d",&k);
printf("( %d %d %d )",i,j,k);
}[/c]
Can you tell me why "j != 2" and "k != 3" ?
I want to convert the string "arr" to int ?
How to modify my code?

hi. i would use the following code:
[c]#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

void main()
{
char arr[80];
int i,j,k;

strcpy(arr, "1 2 3");
sscanf(arr, "%d %[^\0]", &i, arr);
sscanf(arr, "%d %[^\0]", &j, arr);
sscanf(arr, "%d %[^\0]", &k, arr);

printf("(%d %d %d)\n", i, j, k);
}
[/c]
in your example, when you take the first input (i) from the string, the string itself (arr) is never changing. so whenever you take another input (j) from the same string (arr) , they (i and j) will be the same.

i think i saw in some post someone mentioned that this can be done in an easier way by using something like strstream in C++.

Thanks a lot!!but what's the meaning of "%[^\0]"?

or when you use strtok() in C

Best regards

%[^\0] means "take all character until you find \0". It's a bit like %s, but %s stops when it finds a space or a new line. %s is equivalent to %[^ \n\r].
With that trick, you read a %d from attr, then you read the end of attr and store it IN ATTR, and as a consequence when you'll next read "%d" from attr, you'll get "2", not "1" again.

PS to Adil : are you sure one could never have a trouble, reading from attr and writing to it anew, on certain operating systems ? Wouldn't it be safer (though slower) to read to a temporary buffer, then to strcpy ?

actually, "%s" skips all preceeding blank spaces (specified in isspace() for instance), which are more then " ", "\n" and "\r". (the tab is a blank surely "\t").
as for reding from a string, here's a good topic, which gives u all the solutions u need:
