Formatted output Instructions : printf() in C

 Formatted output Instructions

printf() in C

To display the output in C language the printf() functions are used. These functions is predefine library functions, defined in stdio.h (header file).

The printf() function is used to print the value on screen contains by variable

printf()

The syntax of printf() function:

printf("Control string",arguments); 

Control string – it may be format specifier (%d, %f, %c) , characters or both in double quotation mark (i.e. “ ”).

The format string can be

                                    %d for integer

                                    %f for float

                                    %c for character

%s for string

(Note - % is symbol which to  indicting format specifier)  

Arguments – it is list of variables separated by comma ( , )

Note- Every statement in c should end with semicolon ( ; ) mark.

For example,

1)     Int v=10;

printf(“value of V is %d”,v);

output – value of V is 10

2)     Printf(“ Vivekanand College Computer Department ”)

Output - Vivekanand College Computer Department

Here – in this second example we have not use any variables (i.e. arguments) in printf() , which means that use of variable in printf() is optional.

 

Simple Programs:

 

1)     Write a program to print string i.e. Vivekanand College Computer Department.

#include <stdio.h>   

main()

{

    clrscr();

// Displays the string inside quotations

    printf("Vivekanand College Computer Department");

    getch();

}

 

Output

Vivekanand College Computer Department

----------------------------------------------

2)     Write a program to print Characters.

#include <stdio.h>

main()

{

    char chr = 'a';

    clrscr();  

    printf("character = %c", chr); 

    getch();

}

 

Output

character = a

------------------------------------------------

3)     Write a program to print float number

#include <stdio.h>

main()

{

    float num = 27.5;

    clrscr();

    printf("num  = %f", num);

    getch();

}

 

Output

number1 = 27.500000

--------------------------------------------

4) Write a program for Sum of two integer.

#include<stdio.h>

#include<conio.h>

main()

{

int a,b,sum;

a=10;

b=5;

clrscr();

printf("enter two numbers = ",a,b);

sum  = a + b;

printf("Sum =%d",sum);

getch();

}

 

Output 

Sum = 15
