The difference between scanf and gets getting strings

In C, there are at least two functions that can be refactored to obtain a string:

1.SCANF ()

The header file: stdio.h

Syntax: scanf ("Format control string", variable address list);

When accepting a string: scanf ("%s", character array name or pointer);

2.gets ()

The header file: stdio.h

Syntax: Gets (character array name or pointer);

Both when the string is accepted:

1. Different points:

SCANF can not accept spaces, Tab tab, carriage return, etc.;

And gets can accept space, Tab tab and carriage return, etc.;

2. The same point:

The string is automatically added after the end of the acceptance.

Example 1:

#include <stdio.h>

main()

{

　 char ch1[10],ch2[10];

　 scanf("%s",ch1);

　 gets(ch2);

}

In turn, type ASD space FG carriage return, ASD space FG return, then ch1= "asd\0", ch2= "ASD fg\0".

Example 2:

#include <stdio.h>

main()

{

　 char ch1[10],ch2[10],c1,c2;

　 scanf("%s",ch1);

　 c1=getchar();

　 gets(ch2);

　 c2=getchar();

}

Type ASDFG carriage return, ASDFG carriage return, then ch1= "Asdfg\0", c1= ' \ n ', ch2= "Asdfg\0", the C2 needs to enter.
