I have this:
#include <stdio.h>
int main (void)
{
int number;
printf ("Enter number: ");
scanf ("%i", &number);
printf ("%05i", number);
return 0;
}
So, if i enter a number like '00768', it should print out the same
'00768'. But its not doing that...its printing out 5 zeros instead.
I have tried using %06d, %.5i, %.5d in the printf statement. None of
them work properly. I can't use any bigger functions, just printf to
do this. Thanks. 7 9092

woops, sorry, i meant if you typed in a number like 5674, it would add
a zero in front of it, and give a final result of 05674.

00768 does not have the value 768 when parsed by %i on scanf().
It has the value 62. This is because the leading 0 makes it an
octal constant. The trailing 8 is, I believe, ignored.
Use %d instead of %i to force scanf() to read your integer as a
decimal constant.

So: you want it to print out exactly what you typed in? Then
read it as a string and print it as a string. If you read and
print it as an integer, leading zeros won't be retained, because
they are not part of the value of an integer.

Alright, thx. It looks like i have to do it as a character then.

Inputting a number with leading zeroes, I guess, converts it to an
octal number. Easy way out here would be to read the number as a string
probably using fgets().

Scanf's "%i" format expects a string in the same format expected by
strtol() with a base of 0, which means a number with a leading 0 is
treated as octal and a number with a leading 0x or 0X is treated as
hexadecimal. If you only want decimal input, use "%d". (Better yet,
don't use scanf(); use fgets() and parse the input line with
sscanf().)

Yeah, the thing was i couldn't use functions like fgets() or sscanf().
Only allowed to use scanf() and printf(). I thought %d treated numbers
entered beginning with a 0 as ocatal too...trying to figure out what
the difference is between %d and %i. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |
