#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
char *i;
char *password;
   
   clrscr();
   printf ("Input a password:");
   gets(password);
   printf("you typed:%s\n",password);
   do{
   printf ("Input a password:%s:",i);
   }while (gets(i) != password);
   printf("you got it!!!");
   exit(0);
}

i'm trying to get it to break out of loop with the correct password
what am i doing wrong?
