Scanf Demo code - shows some subtleties of scanf and using the output of a function

// A demo program using scanf
// This shows a little bit of using libraries and functions
// as well as how the output of a function can be used

// Using scanf, this is a series of different ways we
// can read in multiple inputs and store them in an array

    // so we're using this as the way to iterate the
    // counter. See if you can find the issues this causes!

        num_count += scanf("%d", &numbers[num_count]);

    // Another option for scanning 10 numbers
    // This is a pretty rough way to do this, but it's
    // interesting to note that scanf will ignore gaps
    // like spaces and newline (\n) in console input
    // in between numbers.
