}as u can see the structure was created so that th euser inputs the students name, age and id. It seems to work fine but i get an error (using dev-c++):21[Warning] passing arg 1 of `fgets' from incompatible pointer type for like every line in that code. Next theres the function, should this be in my while loop, or outside of it? im guessing outside although its not like that in the example. Im kinda lost on the whole bossing of a structure to a function. just some tips would be nice, thanks a bunch!
