How to make a loop to take float input in a row?

Take Float Input in a Row With Tabs
I want to take float input from the user a specific number of times in such a way that when the user presses the enter key, instead of going to the next line as scanf() automatically does, move the cursor one tab forward (\t).

Example:
5 -4 8 75
2 -7 4 11

Note: I'm using this code to get float values into an array for matrices.

I have tried a variation of the following:- 

int i=0,interval=10;
float a[10]={0};

for (i=0;i<interval;i++)
{
    scanf("%f",a[i]);
    printf("\t");
    i++;
}


OR

int i=0;
float a[10]={0};

while (a[i]=getche()!='\r')
{
    printf("\t");
    i++;
}

I would really appreciate it if someone helps me out.

If you were using windows, you can actually try:

#include <conio.h>

and:

char c[100];
int i = 0;
float f;
while ((c[i++]=getch())!='\t');
c[i++] = '\0';
f = atof(c);

Since getch() read characters instantly.
