• 7+8-10*2/4
• Priority level = */ upper level
• + - lower level
• 4+5*2 = 4+10=14 🡪9*2=18 XXXXX
• Start with upper level operator

Reading A Character
• Reading a character means input a character from the
“standard input” like keyboard.

• To input a single character we use getchar() function.

variable_name = getchar();
char name;
name = getchar();

• Example:
• Dummy getchar() ?

31 January 2023 CSC-183 4


Writing A Character
• Show a character on output monitor.

• To show a single character we use putchar() function.


putchar(variable_name);
char name;
name = getchar();

• Example:
Answer = ‘Y’;
putchar(answer);
• dfsd

31 January 2023 CSC-183 5


Formatted Input
• Formatted input refers to an input data that has been
arranged in a particular format.
o i.e: 3.75 123 John
o scanf(“%f %d %s”,&cgpa,&id,name);
o scanf(“control string”,&var1,&var2,……varn);
o For string does not need & before variable name
o Control string = %d %f %lf
o Also called format specifier.
%c for character
%d for integer
%f for float
%lf for double

Formatted Input (Integer)
• %wd w = field width

scanf(“%2d %5d”,&num1,&num2);
input: 50 31426 (num1 = 50, num2=31426)
input: 31426 50 (num1 = 31, num=426, 50
unread)

scanf(“%d %*d %d”,&a,&b);


Input: 123 456 789
123 to a, 456 skipped (because of *), 789 to b

31 January 2023 CSC-183 7


Formatted Input (Character Strings)
• %ws or %w
• To input character and string.
char name[30];
scanf(“%15c”,name);
scanf(“%s”,name);

char name[30];
scanf(“%15c”,name);
scanf(“%s”,name);

31 January 2023 CSC-183 8


Reading Mixed Type Data

char code,name[20];

int id;

float cgpa;

scanf(“%d %c %f %s”, &id, &code, &cgpa, name);

printf(“%d %c %f %s”, id, code, cgpa, name);

31 January 2023 CSC-183 9


Formatted Output
• We use printf() function to show formatted output.

printf(“control string”,var1,var2, …., varn);

Control string = %d %f %lf

Also called format specifier.


%c for character
%d for integer
%f for float
%lf for double

31 January 2023 CSC-183 10


Formatted Output (Integer)
• Control string: %wd
w = width
Format Output
1 2 3 4
printf(“%d”,1234)
1 2 3 4
printf(“%6d”,1234)
1 2 3 4
printf(“%2d”,1234)
1 2 3 4
printf(“%-6d”,1234)
0 0 1 2 3 4
printf(“%06d”,1234)
31 January 2023 CSC-183 11
Formatted Output (Float)
• Control string: %w.pf wd
w = width , p = precision, y = 5.2255
Format Output
printf(“%6.4f”,y) 5 . 2 2 5 5

printf(“%6.2f”,y) 5 . 2 3

printf(“%-6.2f”,y) 5 . 2 3

printf(“%f”,y) 5 . 2 2 5 5

31 January 2023 CSC-183 12


Formatted Output (Strings)
• Control string: %w.ps
w = width , p = 1st p characters, msg[12] = “HELLO WORLD”
Format Output
printf(“%s”,msg) H E L L O WO R L D

H E L L O WO R L D
printf(“%12s”,msg)

H E L L O WO
printf(“%12.8s”,msg)

H E L L O
printf(“%.5s”,msg)
H E L L O WO
printf(“%-12.8s”,msg)
H E L L O WO R L D
printf(“%5s”,msg)
