Parsing data in C

[darkessenz21]

INPUT FILE

String p c d f e b p s
String c c 3 d 4 f j l





I am trying to parse this file in C


Here is the basic of my code

while(fscanf(fin, "%s", buffer)!=EOF)
{
if(strcmp(buffer, "String")==0)
{
while(strcmp(buffer, "\n"){
fscanf(fin, "%s", buffer)
createNode("buffer"); // Creates a node using the buffer as the name.

}
}
}


I am having a hard getting the input to recognize the newline character, and for it to stop at end of the line.

I'm having trouble understanding what you want parsed.

Can you give an example?

Sample output?

Your program loops until EOF. Have you tried getline() and strtok() ? (man getline, man strtok). Getline reads a line of input and strtok breaks up the string into tokens separated by whitespace (or any other character for that matter). Check out the man pages for details.
