How to handle inputs if the user inputs the wrong thing Did a
search, nothing really came up so here goes.. I have a long
floating input in my program where the user needs to input a
value with a decimal point. And they input 29.92 or whatever..
printf("Please enter the altimeter setting (xx.xx): "); Problem
is let's say they input 29,92, or the letter "a", or anything
else besides a number and a decimal. That basically sends the
program into an uncontrollable loop of sorts and crashes. How do
I handle incorrect inputs like that? I have a simple while loop
to keep unwanted numbers from being entered but I'm not sure
about characters and symbols and such..
