I need to add a book to the list of containers, (structures within structures), but I have no clue how to do so...

and I also do not know why the code for the search, applies to registration function and it returns "That book is already on the list" every time I input anything.

Please help me code these 2 problems! thanks

// used to create a linked list of containers, each contaning a "book"

struct container {

struct book *book;

struct container *next;

} *list = NULL;

// used to hold book information and linked list of "frequently bought together (fbt)"

struct book {

char title[30];

char author[30];

float price;

struct fbt *fbts;

};

// used to create a linked list of frequently bought together (fbt)

struct fbt {

struct book *book;

struct fbt *next;

};

// forward declaration of functions that have already been implemented

void flush();

void branching(char);

void registration(char);

// the following forward declarations are for functions that require implementation

// HW07

// Total: 50 points for hw07

// return type // name and parameters // points

void add_book(char*, char*, float); // 15

struct book* search_book(char*); // 10

void remove_book(char*); // 15

void print_all_books(); // 10

// HW08

// Total: 50 points for hw08

struct container * buy_book(); // 15

struct container * setfbt(struct container *); // 25

void display_fbt(struct container*); // 10

int main()

{

char ch = 'i';

printf("Book Information ");

do

{

printf("Please enter your selection: ");

printf("\ta: add a new book to the list ");

printf("\ts: search for a book on the list ");

printf("\tr: remove a book from the list ");

printf("\tl: print the list of all books ");

printf("\tb: buy a book ");

printf("\tq: quit ");

ch = tolower(getchar());

flush();

branching(ch);

} while (ch != 'q');

return 0;

}

// consume leftover ' ' characters

void flush()

{

int c;

do c = getchar(); while (c != ' ' && c != EOF);

}

// branch to different tasks

void branching(char c)

switch (c)

}

}
