C Program For Employee Menu Driven

Here is a sample C program that demonstrates how to create a menu-driven application that prompts the user to enter the details of five employees and stores them in an array list. The program will keep looping until the user enters “quit”. The program uses a while loop to implement this functionality.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

#define MAX_EMPLOYEES 5

// Define a struct to represent an employee
typedef struct 
    char name[100];
    int age;
    float salary;
 Employee;

int main(void) 
    // Create an array to hold the employee records
    Employee employees[MAX_EMPLOYEES] =  0 ; // Initialize the array to all zeros to ensure it is properly initialized

    // Loop until the user enters "quit"
    char input[100] =  0 ; // Initialize the input string to all zeros to ensure it is zero-terminated
    int num_employees = 0;
    while (num_employees < MAX_EMPLOYEES) 
        printf("Enter the name of employee %d (or 'quit' to exit): ", num_employees + 1);
        if (scanf_s("%99s", input, sizeof(input)) != 1)  // Use scanf_s to read the input string and check the return value to ensure that it was successful
            printf("Error reading input\n");
            return 1;
        

        if (strcmp(input, "quit") == 0) 
            break;
        

        // Store the employee's name
        strcpy_s(employees[num_employees].name, sizeof(employees[num_employees].name), input); // Use strcpy_s to copy the input string to the employees array

        // Prompt for and store the employee's age
        printf("Enter the age of employee %d: ", num_employees + 1);
        if (scanf_s("%d", &employees[num_employees].age) != 1)  // Use scanf_s to read the age and check the return value to ensure that it was successful
            printf("Error reading input\n");
            continue; // If the age input was invalid, skip the rest of the current iteration and move on to the next one
        

        // Prompt for and store the employee's salary
        printf("Enter the salary of employee %d: ", num_employees + 1);
        if (scanf_s("%f", &employees[num_employees].salary) != 1)  // Use scanf_s to read the salary and check the return value to ensure that it was successful
            printf("Error reading input\n");
            continue; // If the salary input was invalid, skip the rest of the current iteration and move on to the next one
        

        num_employees++;
    

    // Print the employee records
    printf("\nEmployee records:\n");

    for (int i = 0; i < num_employees; i++) 
        printf("Name: %s\n", employees[i].name);
        printf("Age: %d\n", employees[i].age);
        printf("Salary: %.2f\n", employees[i].salary);
    

    return 0;
