$I'm having a problem using scanf in Turbo C 2.01.
$When I have the code
$         fscanf(f,"%f",x);
$it compiles and links fine, but at run time I get
$ scanf : floating point formats not linked
$Abnormal program termination

   I've had problems with scanf under TCC 2.0.  Given something like
scanf ("%f", &floatvariable);
it will read the keyboard but return garbage (sometimes 0, sometimes NAN,
sometimes other values).  atof is the cause of this problem; I've
tried
scanf ("%s", stringvariable); floatvariable = atof (stringvariable);
and it has the same problem (not surprising, since scanf calls atof
to handle floating point quantities).
