The format specifiers are used in C for input and output purposes. Using this concept the compiler can understand that what type of data is in a variable during taking input using the scanf() function and printing using printf() function. Here is a list of format specifiers.
| Format Specifier | Type |
|---|---|
| %c | Character |
| %d | Signed integer |
| %e or %E | Scientific notation of floats |
| %f | Float values |
| %g or %G | Similar as %e or %E |
| %hi | Signed integer (short) |
| %hu | Unsigned Integer (short) |
| %i | Unsigned integer |
| %l or %ld or %li | Long |
| %lf | Double |
| %Lf | Long double |
| %lu | Unsigned int or unsigned long |
| %lli or %lld | Long long |
| %llu | Unsigned long long |
| %o | Octal representation |
| %p | Pointer |
| %s | String |
| %u | Unsigned int |
| %x or %X | Hexadecimal representation |
| %n | Prints nothing |
| %% | Prints % character |
These are the basic format specifiers. We can add some other parts with the format specifiers. These are like below −
A minus symbol (-) sign tells left alignment
-
A number after % specifies the minimum field width. If string is less than the width, it will be filled with spaces

A period (.) is used to separate field width and precision
Example
Live Demo
#includemain() { char ch = 'B'; printf("%c ", ch); //printing character data //print decimal or integer data with d and i int x = 45, y = 90; printf("%d
", x); printf("%i
", y); float f = 12.67; printf("%f
", f); //print float value printf("%e
", f); //print in scientific notation int a = 67; printf("%o
", a); //print in octal format printf("%x
", a); //print in hex format char str[] = "Hello World"; printf("%s
", str); printf("%20s
", str); //shift to the right 20 characters including the string printf("%-20s
", str); //left align printf("%20.5s
", str); //shift to the right 20 characters including the string, and print string up to 5 character printf("%-20.5s
", str); //left align and print string up to 5 character }
输出
B 45 90 12.670000 1.267000e+001 103 43 Hello World Hello World Hello World Hello Hello
我们可以以相同的方式使用这些格式说明符来使用scanf()函数。因此,我们可以像上面打印的那样从scanf()中获取输入。
