I modified your program as below.
Every time, value of ret = 0.
scanf is repeatedly failing cos there is some junk in the input stream
Hence it prints junk values
#include <stdio.h>
void main()
{
while(1)
{
int opt, ret;
ret=scanf("%d",&opt);
printf("opt is %d\n",opt);
printf("ret is %d\n",ret);
}
}
