The problem you have is that you have declared three variables (fname, lname, and grade) as char[] (arrays) (well, that is the type you meant to use), but you want to prompt for and keep around a bunch of students information. And you later try to copy from strtok() into what you want to be a char[], but since you dereferenced fname[i] (lname[i], grade[i]), they are of type char, rather than char[].
You will need stdlib.h for exit,
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h> //for exit
#include <string.h>
//#include <math.h> //you don't need this, yet
#define STUDLIMIT (100)
You can either create an array of fname[], lname[], grade[], (see here: http://www.cs.swarthmore.edu/~newhall/unixhelp/C_arrays.html),
int main(void)
{
//int menuswitch=1; //you aren't using this
int amountofstudents;
char studentinfo[100];
char fname[STUDLIMIT][50];
char lname[STUDLIMIT][50];
char grade[STUDLIMIT][50];
int ndx;
printf("Enter Amount of Students: ");
if( (fscanf(stdin,"%d ", &amountofstudents)<=0)
|| (amountofstudents<1) || (amountofstudents>STUDLIMIT) )
{
printf("need %d to %d studends\n",1,STUDLIMIT); exit(0);
}
for (ndx=0;ndx<amountofstudents;ndx++)
{
printf("Student: "); fflush(stdout);
fgets(studentinfo,sizeof(studentinfo),stdin);
strcpy(fname[ndx], strtok(studentinfo, " "));
strcpy(lname[ndx], strtok(NULL, " "));
strcpy(grade[ndx], strtok(NULL, " "));
}
}
Or you can create a struct(ure) to hold the entered student information, and instantiate an array of these student records, one for each student you enter and store,
typedef struct student
{
char fname[50];
char lname[50];
char grade[50];
} StudentObj;
int StudentCopy(StudentObj*sp,char*fname,char*lname,char*grade)
{
if(!sp || !fname || !lname || !grade ) return -1;
strcpy(sp->fname, fname);
strcpy(sp->fname, lname);
strcpy(sp->fname, grade);
}
StudentObj students[STUDLIMIT];
int main(void)
{
//int menuswitch=1; //you aren't using this
int amountofstudents;
char studentinfo[100];
char fname[50];
char lname[50];
char grade[50];
int ndx;
printf("Enter Amount of Students: ");
if( (fscanf(stdin,"%d ",&amountofstudents)<=0)
|| (amountofstudents<1) || (amountofstudents>STUDLIMIT) )
{
printf("need %d to %d studends\n",1,STUDLIMIT); exit(0);
}
for (ndx=0;ndx<amountofstudents;ndx++)
{
printf("Student: "); fflush(stdout);
fgets(studentinfo,sizeof(studentinfo),stdin);
strcpy(fname, strtok(studentinfo, " "));
strcpy(lname, strtok(NULL, " "));
strcpy(grade, strtok(NULL, " \n\r"));
StudentCopy(&(students[ndx]),fname,lname,grade);
}
}
