#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
	/* Declare */
	double a, b, c

	/* Grab Input */
	printf("Please enter your information in the following
		format\n");
	printf("a(9999.99) b(9999.99) c (9999.99)\n");
	scanf("%f",&a);
	scanf("%f",&b);
	scanf("%f",&c);

	
	/*Display abc */
	printf (" a : %7.2f\n",a);
	printf (" b : %7.2f\n",b);
	printf (" c : %7.2f\n",c);

	return 0;
}


Could someone please tell me why all input entered comes back out as
0000.00?  The original listing from class notes has a, b and c
delcared as ints and the edit masks as %d.  That version, when typed
in works as it should.  My version with floating point numbers
doesn't.  What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
