I am currently trying to learn C and in order to do that I have tried to create very simple code that requests the first name of a person and puts it into a struct. It should then proceed to print the information using the "print_contact" function.
For some reason I keep getting a Bus error 10 and I don't understand why this happens.
typedef struct {
char *first_name;
char *last_name;
} contact;
void print_contact(contact *c) {
printf("Name: %s %s\n", c->first_name, c->last_name);
}
contact *populate_contact() {
contact *c;
char *input;
c = (contact *)malloc(sizeof(contact));
printf(">>> Please Input The First Name: ");
fgets(input, 100, stdin);
c->first_name = strdup(input);
c->last_name = "Doe";
}
int main() {
contact m = *populate_contact();
print_contact(&m);
return 0;
}
