Question

How do I end the loop in the 'main' function below. Need to end program if answer is 'N' and get back to the first step if its 'Y'.

void reversedWord (char input [], int size)
{   
   char a[50];
   int i=0, j, temp;
  
   printf("Please enter a word: ")
   scanf(" %s", a);
  
   i=0;
   j= strlen(a)-1;
  
   while (i<j)
  
  
   {
       temp= a[i];
       a[i]= a[j];
       a[j]= temp;
       i++;
       j--;
}

int main()

{
  
  
   printf("Your word spelled backwards is: %s", a);
   getchar();
  
   char answer;
   printf(" Would you like to continue (Y/N)?: ",answer);
   scanf(" %s", &answer);
  
   if(answer=="N")

void reversedWord (char a[])
{
  
int i, j, temp;
  
i = 0;
j = strlen(a)-1;
  
while (i<j)
{
temp= a[i];
a[i]= a[j];
a[j]= temp;
i++;
j--;
}
  
}
int main()

{
  
char a[50];
char answer;

do
{
printf("Please enter a word: ");
scanf("%s", a);
getchar(); //get rid of newline

reversedWord(a);
  
printf("Your word spelled backwards is: %s ", a);
  
printf(" Would you like to continue (Y/N)?: ");
answer = getchar();
  
  
}while(answer == 'Y' || answer == 'y');
  
printf(" Thank you! Goodbye!");
