This is what I have so far. I am learning structure, and I had to use a structure for the assignment. I don't get what is wrong with my code. When I debug, I get 0 for hour, minute, seconds. Please look at my code.
#include <stdio.h>
struct calculate
{
int hours;
int minutes;
int seconds;
};
struct calculate N1;
struct calculate N2;
int resulthr, resultmin, resultsec;
int substract(struct calculate N1, struct calculate N2)
{
resultsec = N2.seconds - N1.seconds;
if (resultsec < 0)
{
resultsec = 60 + resultsec;
--N2.minutes;
}
resultmin = N2.minutes - N1.minutes;
if (resultmin < 0)
{
resultsec = 60 + resultmin;
--N2.hours;
}
resulthr = N2.hours - N1.hours;
if (resulthr < 0)
{
resulthr = 24 + resultsec;
}
return 0;
}
int main(void)
{
printf("Enter two times.(hh:mm:ss) ");
scanf("%i:%i:%i", &N1.hours, &N1.minutes, &N1.seconds);
scanf("%i:%i:%i", &N2.hours, &N2.minutes, &N2.seconds);
int substract(calculate N1, calculate N2);
printf("The elasped time is %i:%i:%i.\n", resulthr, resultmin, resultsec);
return 0;
}
call substract(N1, N2); instead of int substract(calculate N1, calculate N2); in the main function.
You were declaring it, not calling it.
