I must admit that not only do I not advocate using scanf()...I've never used it
either. So, I decided to test a bit...interesting.

 main()
 {
        int v1, v2;

        scanf("%d%d", &v1, &v2);

        printf("V1=%d V2=%d\n", v1, v2);
 }

With this program I can enter either:

 123 456

or

 123
 456

and get proper results. Matter of fact, I can even put in extra spaces and all
is okay. I figured that I would have to include a \n in the control string to
such the CR input from the keyboard...but that really doesn't work at all.
Hmmm, maybe I know why I don't use this now.
