read only the first word with sscanf from a string?

Question

I have a string like this :

char cstr[] = "i 176064 Patterson Denise 8.58 11 DEN 15788 ";

and i want to get only the fist word 'i' with sscanf

int main()
{   char cstr[] = "i 176064 Patterson Denise 8.58 11 DEN 15788 ";
    char option[20];
    sscanf(cstr, "%s",option);


}

what i have to do to ignore the rest of the string?

您无需执行任何操作，因为scanf函数会自动忽略任何尾随字符。
