Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

This is supposed to sum up numbers entered by the user but, for some reason it seems to only add every second number!!!

# include <stdio.h>

int main(void){
    int sum = 0;
    int add = 0;

    while (scanf("%d", &add) == 1){
	scanf("%d", &add);
	sum = sum + add;
	printf("Sum = %d\n", sum);}

    printf("\nThe sum of those numbers is %d.\n", sum);
    return 0;
}

looks like you're doing scanf twice, but only adding once. try it without the second scanf statement.

You're using scanf twice in each pass through loop.

Remember, anytime you call a function, you are running it AND testing its result.
