Hello,

I have a problem with reading input. I'm supposed to read team names from an input file, but I'm having a problem with reading teams with 2 names. For example, input is like this:

MNU ManchesterUnited A
BAR Barcelona A
RMA Real Madrid B
OL Lyon A
GLA Glasgow Rangers B

Group names come after the team names. I try to read them with

fscanf(filePtr, "%s %s %c", teams[x].teamAbbr, teams[x].teamName, teams[x].group);

this, but if a team has 2 names(like Manchester United), it reads only Manchester with %s, then %c gets a character from United... Any solutions?

You could read whole line and then split it; teamAbbr is always at start, team group is always last and everything in between is team name.

Can you please give an example?
