Solution for Exercise 17-4

ex1704

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    char input[64];
    int ch;
    int x = 0;

    printf("Type in ALL CAPS: ");
    fgets(input,63,stdin);

    while(input[x] != '\n')
    {
        ch = input[x] | 32;
        putchar(ch);
        x++;
    }
    putchar('\n');

    return(0);
}

Notes

* I actually caught myself declaring the ch variable as a char when I first wrote this code. The putchar() function requires an int value, not a char. The code compiles when you declare ch as a char, but it should be an int.
