如何在 C89 中读取字符串直到逗号？

Question

I am trying to read a CSV file in c89 using scanf :

FOO,2,3
BAR,5,4
...

This is what I have tried:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {

    char code[10];
    double a,b;

    while( scanf("%s,%lf,%lf", code, &a, &b)!=EOF ) {
        printf("> %s\n", code);
        printf("> %s,%lf,%lf\n", code, a, b);
    }

    return 0;
}

This is the output I get:

$ ./a.out
A,2,3
> A,2,3
> A,2,3,0.000000,0.000000
B,5,4
> B,5,4
> B,5,4,0.000000,0.000000
$ 

This is the output I was expecting from the above code:

$ ./a.out
A,2,3
> A
> A,2.000000,3.000000
B,5,4
> B
> B,5.000000,4.000000
$ 

Edit

As per the comment provided I have tried:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {

    char code[10];
    double a,b;

    while( scanf("%9[^,],%lf,%lf", code, &a, &b)!=EOF ) {
        printf("> %s\n", code);
        printf("> %s,%lf,%lf\n", code, a, b);
    }

    return 0;
}

And I get:

$ cat > test.txt
A,2,3
B,4,5
C,5,6
$ cat test.txt | ./a.out 
> A
> A,2.000000,3.000000
> 
B
> 
B,4.000000,5.000000
> 
C
> 
C,5.000000,6.000000
> 

> 
,5.000000,6.000000
$

Apparently the first record is properly processed but not the subsequent ones.

Also I have the question about what the 9 does and if the whole %9[^,] is part of c89 .

Answer 1

I found a workaround that is reaching each line into a buffer and replacing the commas by spaces first, then I apply the %s .

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {

    char line[256];    
    char code[10];
    double a,b;

    while(scanf("%s", line) != EOF) {

        /* REPLACE ALL , BY SPACES TO SIMPLIFY SCANF USAGE */
        char *p = line;
        while(*p!='\0') {
            if(*p==',') {
                *p = ' ';
            }
            p++;
        }


        sscanf(line,"%s %lf %lf", code, &a, &b);
        printf("> %s\n", code);
        printf("> %s,%lf,%lf\n", code, a, b);               
    }    

    return 0;   

}

Not sure if it is the most elegant solution, but improves readability of the scanf part.
