10 limiting display

[kimimaro]

How do you limits employee display where you enter the department for all
the employee within that department be displayed and if lets say they are
100 or so and you have to limits 10 employee per page before entering
anything to display the next 10 again?

I tried to read that. Twice. Both times I failed to understand what
exactly you want.
Next time, try separating your sentences with punctuation marks like
these:
"," "." "!" "?" ":" ";"
For advanced users, separate paragraphs might help.

Try it this way:

Department employee 100 be per or displayed page so and before and if
the how entering you department do anything have for you to to all
limits display limits employee the 10 lets the display next say
employee where 10 they within you again are that enter?

As far as the loop control, something using the remainder operator (%)
is typical. As far as stopping then entering, some sort of read from
stdin in used. For portable code, that means reading a line. Any other
way (Hit Any Key To Continue) requires implementation-specific features
that are off-topic here.

Here is a small code fragment that displays numbers from 1 and stopping
after every 5 to wait for a carriage return. This input is not robust,
in reality you need to handle people putting in characters before the
return, and has other safety issues for you to work out. It is only a
demonstration.

int i;

for (i = 1; ; i++)
{
printf("%d\n", i);
if (i%5 == 0)
getchar();
}

Right, if kimimaro next replies to this with "Thanks! That worked!"
then I'll be really scared...

Really sorry for my last post I am too tired then and I only realised that
how broken my engrish(japanes e english) are. Ok,
i'll try to type in a proper way now. I want to prompt the user to enter
from the selection 1 to 5 for assigning to a particular department which
I've done that. Now I want to display them by searching on the matched
department where the user want to search such as if they want to view all
employees within Accounting department they enter the correspondant
number. BUT the thing is that I wanted to limits 10 entry to be viewed
before the user hit enter again to display the next 10. If the employee
exceeds 200 it would be a problem to display them all in one go. sorry and
thanks in advance

You are most probably using some sort of loop (for, while, or something)
to display the matching results. Try adding an int variable which is
initialised to 0 and incremented by 1 every time you enter the loop.
Then when this variable is divisible by 10 you call getchar(). I'd
figure it'd go something like this:

int i=0;
while (/* there are employees left in the department */) {
i++;
/* show the next employee */
if ((i%10) == 0) {
getchar();
}
}

do {
printf("\n\n 0) %s\n 1) %s\n 2) %s\n 3) %s\n 4) %s\n \n [Enter the
Department to search for employee]: ", Department[0], Department[1],
Department[2], Department[3], Department[4]);
fflush(stdin);
scanf("%d",&sel ection);
if((selection !=0) && (selection !=1) && (selection !=2) && (selection
!=3) && (selection !=4)) {gotoxy(1, 24); printf(" >>invalid Department<<
Retry!\a");}
} while(selection < 0 || selection > 4);

clrscr();


printf("\n\n%s% s----------\n", lines, lines);
printf("ID\tFir st
Name\t\tDepartm ent\t\tPost\n%s %s----------\n", lines, lines);
while(strcmp(re cord[i].Department[storage],
Department[selection])==0) {
i++;
printf("\n\n%s\ t%s %s\t\t%s\t\t%s" , record[i].ID,
record[i].Name, record[i].Name2, record[i].Department[storage],
record[i].Post[rank]);
if ((i%10) == 0) {
getchar();
}

}
This is how my display should work but I dont think it is working because
it only prints out the 1st one who matched the same department input by
the user and then the the next one below them even if it doesnt match with
the department

[kimimaro]

for (i = 1; i<500 ; i++)
{
if(strcmp(recor d[i].Department[storage],
Department[selection])==0)
{
printf("\n\n%s\ t%s %s\t\t%s\t\t%s" , record[i].ID,
record[i].Name, record[i].Name2, record[i].Department[storage],
record[i].Post[rank]);

if (i%10 == 0)
getchar();
}
}
I have 500 employees in my records and i want to compare the department in
the records and the one entered by the user to
match the search while limiting 10 per page before hit again to display
the next 10. This one almost done it but still it displayed fully. There
might be some mistakes here

hi I seems to do ok now since i've been working on it some few hours and
now the problem is after I inserted 21 person to check if it works it
display the 1st person, then 8 person, then 10 person and then 2. It
supposed to display 10, 10 then 1. This is the code:
do {
printf("\n\n 0) %s\n 1) %s\n 2) %s\n 3) %s\n 4) %s\n \n [Enter the
Department to search for employee]: ", Department[0], Department[1],
Department[2], Department[3], Department[4]);
fflush(stdin);
scanf("%d",&sel ection);
if((selection !=0) && (selection !=1) && (selection !=2) && (selection
!=3) && (selection !=4)) {gotoxy(1, 24); printf(" >>invalid Department<<
Retry!\a");}
} while(selection < 0 || selection > 4);

clrscr();

printf("\n\n%s% s----------\n", lines, lines);
printf("ID\tFir st
Name\t\tDepartm ent\t\tPost\n%s %s----------\n", lines, lines);
for (i=0;i<500;i++)
{
if(strcmp(recor d[i].Department[storage],
Department[selection])==0)
{
printf("\n\n%s\ t%s %s\t\t%s\t\t%s" , record[i].ID,
record[i].Name, record[i].Name2, record[i].Department[storage],
record[i].Post[rank]);
}
if(i%10==0)
{
getchar();
getch();
clrscr();
}

}

Thanks for helping me out
