   reading text files in C
  I've got this really annoying problem reading in numbers from a text file in C. My text file looks like this:21510.111.5-24.32my program is able to open the file just fine and read in the integers. But, it doesn't work properly when I try to read in the double.I am usingfscanf(filename,"%f",&test);where test is a double and filename is the pointer to the actual file name.Is there a known issue with reading in doubles!!?   
  Did you try "%lf" ? It's probably interpreting the pointer to double as a pointer to float.   ;  thanks again!!!
