Help Please, Basic Input and Output C program

#include <stdio.h> int main() { char a[100]; char b; printf("Hello world!\n"); printf("Enter a character : "); b=getchar(); printf("You entered : %c\n", b); printf("Enter a word : "); gets(a); printf("You entered: %s", a); return 0; } So, the purpose of that program is to ask for a character input and then display the character. After that, the program then prompt the user to input a word and displayed them. Unfortunately, it doesn't work the way is supposed to. What went wrong here ?

Sololearn IDE haven't facility to type input one by one . You have type it all just for once using space and new line

Interactive input does not work on code playground for non web codes. You need to enter all inputs at once, separated by newlines.

Try having the input for the word first and the input of the character second. #include <stdio.h> int main() { char a[100]; char b; printf("Hello world!\n"); printf("Enter a word : "); gets(a); printf("You enterded : %s\n", a); printf("Enter a character : "); b=getchar(); printf("You enterded : %c\n ", b); return 0; }
