the main difference between gets() and scanf() function is that while getting any input as a stream of characters or as a string using scanf() , the end termination character is a blank space or an enter key for scanf() , so upto blank space it will be saving it in the memory...... SHORTLY it ignores the characters comin after and with blank spaces........
in gets() , it allows with the blank spaces and the termination condition is a enter key (\n) ,
but a inside gets() function , surely they would have used scanf() function , but the difference is that the input inside gets() would go character by character , so only gets() can allow with the blank spaces...........
thank u

Answer / niraj kumar
Main difference between '%s' and 'gets' is:
%s ends taking input when it encounter whitespace, new line(
) or EOF.
gets takes whitespace and stops taking input when it encounters new line(
) or EOF.

We can use scanf() instead of gets()
Syntax : gets(str);

Question 1: You want to conduct a survey within your classroom, on the quality of canteen’s food. You ask each of your class fellows to rank the quality of food between 1 and 5 (1 representing excellent quality and 5 representing worst quality). During the survey, you make a list containing the roll# of student and the opinion given by that student. The list can be as follow Roll # Opinion 234 1 235 1 236 5 237 1 238 2 239 3 240 5 241 5 242 1 To get the results of the survey, you need to determine the frequency of each opinion value. The frequency of an opinion is determined by counting the number of students giving that opinion. For example, for the above list the frequency of opinion value 1 is 4 and frequency of opinion value 4 is 0. After getting the frequency of each opinion, you can easily judge about the quality of the food by seeing through the frequency of each opinion. You need to develop a program to calculate the results of this survey. The program inputs the opinion of 50 students and counts the frequency of each opinion. It then displays a report showing the frequency of each opinion. Sample output: Opinion Frequency Remarks 1 5 Excellent 2 10 Good 3 15 Normal 4 10 Bad 5 10 Really bad
