Hi Davidson

Wouldn't it be a good idea if you attempt to write a little and handy C program that will give you code for any character you enter in the program?

Anyway, Ascii code for space is 32.

Good luck with the program and learning C

Why do you even want to know that? A space character is simply this: ' '.
Any numerical value is bound to be valid only for a certain character encoding
such as ASCII or EBCDIC; if you want to sprinkle those numerical values all
over in your code it is doomed to be tightly coupled with that one single
character encoding scheme. Better stay far away from such bad practices.

kind regards,

Thank u josh..questionit.....

You can find them out easily enough by writing a program to output '[' and ']' as integer values. Store them as a char, then (if you are working in C), use the %d specifier to print them out with printf. In C++, typecast the chars to ints before cout-ing them.

But, as Jos said, if you are writing your program to compare a character to 32 to see if it is a space, it will only work on your computer and computers with similar character codes. Instead, you can just compare it to the character literal ' ', which will get the proper character no matter what system.

how should i do it for carriage return?

[Ganon11]

A carriage return character is '\r', and a newline character is '\n'.

There's ASCII tables all over the internet, www.ascitable.com is one, as for EBCDIC, just Google it.
