Most of character and string operations are based on ASCII values.
ASCII value is standard value for every character, digit and symbol in C compiler.
There are 128 ASCII values but Extended ASCII can represent 256 characters.
A really long chart, hmmm !!
Don't worry you don't need to remember these all values. You can find common ASCII values using a simple logic. What you need to do is -
Don't worry you don't need to remember these all values. You can find common ASCII values using a simple logic. What you need to do is -
- Take a character variable to get user input.
- Then print that character variable with %d format specifier.
- It will print ASCII value of that character.
Note: Generally %c format specifier is used with character variable to scan it and print it, but if we use %d to print it, then it will print ASCII value.
A simple program which takes a character input and prints its ASCII and reduces the burden of remembering all these values :-
