Question about a conditional statement comparing data types in C programming?

I need to check in my program if the user entered a character in an integer field.


example:


int years;


printf("Enter number of year\n');


scanf("%i", %26amp;years);


if (this is what i dont know) // I need to see if the user entered text here and give an error


{


printf("You entered text in an integer field!\n);


while (this is what i dont know again.) //same as if statement


{


printf("Enter Years again this is a number!\n");


scanf("%n", %26amp;years);


}


}





Any help is appreciated.
