Well currently you're only reading in a character for the name and not a string.
#help with a small thing i was doing
rapid flare
Same for passport_doc sadly
Do your names contain spaces?
If they do you won't be able to use scanf easily
solid sorrel
hmmm id like to add spaces yes
like probably the person would write name and surname
then a number that has 4 digits, 5 max at passport doc
then name of pacient same thing, name and just a surname
rapid flare
Is this for a class?
solid sorrel
no, rp server lol
rapid flare
ahh okay, I only ask so I don't introduce features that are too advanced
sometimes teachers have strict requirements
solid sorrel
i mean it can be advanced im just trying to keep it easy cuz im still learning i know just the basics as you can see just printfs n scanfs lol
let me show you something approximate of what i want with this tiny code
my idea comes out of a website im using to get players immersed
tell me 4 numbers
random
solid sorrel
okay hold on a sec
here
this is what i was doing
i had to translate everything so if i missed something just forget about it
this is what i wanted to make
but its pain in the abs to do it because i have to fill each field one by one
and i wanted to make something quicker and simple
rapid flare
ahh, this is for like an rp server thing right?
like i've seen gta rp before
so just trying to understand a bit
are you wanting to generate these payment recipts automatically?
solid sorrel
yea
rapid flare
how are you making them currently?
solid sorrel
thats supposed to be filled by rp players and im actually doing one by one manually
lets say that you are a pacient
you come in, i give you treatment and everything
after that you'll have to pay an amount of money accordinly to the treatment in this case was 1.500
then i wanted a tiny form
this is what im using rn
but im pretty sure people actually use this in their professional life 😂
rapid flare
haha that is interesting
solid sorrel
what i do is fill up with the info that is crucial to continue with the rp
and i just edit it using the html editor
but as i said, pain in the abs
rapid flare
so my only concern is that like, you're currently doing this stuff in C which is a bit hard to work with and make nice looking things
solid sorrel
i wanted something smaller and simpler
i tried with html but didnt work
do you have any ideas?
rapid flare
how does your rp server do stuff? via like discord or something?
solid sorrel
i think they do thru discord, yea
for example, images they host on discord or imgur, something like that
or a script that merges imgur and discord, idk exactly
rapid flare
Like I'd just envision this through a discord bot
I think python gives you a lot of flexibility
solid sorrel
but theres no need tbh because i just want an img like that to send to players
solid sorrel
they get the print fine the only problem is that its boring to do this everytime
i wanted something like that devcpp that people use or even do with html because i can do some css and we golden
but im not familiarized with html neither
what i wanted was
your name
your passport
pacient name
pacient passport
value they have to pay
after that the same message that shows up in a cool css div or something with the info provided in those fields
bla bla bla awaiting payment of user of passport number and my name n value printed too
ive tried to copy that websites code and tried to mess with it a bit to see if i could make my own form but that html code is tooooo advanced for me
i cant freaking understand none of that 😂
solid sorrel
@rapid flare im getting there!
switched to python to see if i could make something out of it alone
and i gotta tell you.. i have no fkn clue what im doing im just going thru lmao
but tbf if i can make something as simple as this and toss some cool css in there bruh im all for it
i really just need something this stupid with some background and im good
i want something like this
my next goal is to figure out how to print my 'value' both as integer number at the corner and at the same time as written number and fix bugs
