C program to display ASCII value of a character

 C program to display ASCII value of a character


        In this example we will learn how to display the ASCII value of any character entered by the user through keyboard. To solve this program we must have knowledge about ASCII.


PROGRAM

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    char c;
    printf("Enter a character : ");
    scanf("%c",&c);
    printf("ASCII value of %c =%d",c,c);
    return 0;
}



OUTPUT:



ASCII:

        ASCII Stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange. It is widely used in computers of all types. It is used to create a standard for character-sets used in electronic components. ASCII codes are of two types - ASCII-7 and ASCII-8. 


  • ASCII-7: It is a 7 bit standard ASCII code. In ASCII-7 the first 3 bits are zone bits and the next 4 bits are for the digits. ASCII-7 represents 128 unique symbols.

  • ASCII-8: It is an extended version of ASCII-7. ASCII-8 is an 8 bit code having 4 bits for zone and 4 bits for the digits. It represents 256 unique symbols. 


  • Codes 0-31 represents character that cannot be printed like, Carriage return(CR), Control(Ctrl),etc.
  • Codes 48 -57 stands for numeric 0-9. 
  • Codes 65-90 stands for uppercase letters A-Z.
  • Codes 97-122 stands for lowercase letters a-z.
  • Codes 128-255 stands for the extended ASCII codes.

C Program to find the sum of the elements of a 2-D array.

 C Program to find the sum of the elements of a 2-D array.     In this example, we will find the sum of the elements of a 2-D array allowing the user to enter the row size and column size according to their requiremnts.      Here in the output we have entered a row  size 3 and column size 3. PROGRAM #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> void   main () {      int   a [ 50 ][ 50 ], r , c , i , j , sum = 0 ;      printf ( "Enter the row size and column size of the array :" );      scanf ( " %d%d " ,& r ,& c );      printf ( "Enter the elements of the array : " );      for ( i = 0 ; i < r ; i ++)     {          for ( j = 0 ; j < c ; j ++)       ...

C Program to input and display details of students using structure

 C Program to input and display details of students using structure.       In this example, we will enter the details of students like roll number, name and total marks using structure and will be displayed. The total number of student should be entered according to the requirements of the user(maximum value is 50). We can increase the maximum number by changing the statement struct student[50];  to struct student[100];     Here in the output we have entered details of four student and displayed them accordingly. PROGRAM #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> struct   student {      int   roll ;      char   name [ 20 ];      int   total ; }; void   main () {      int   i , n ;      struct   student   std [ 50 ];      printf ( "Enter the number of students ...

C Program to find the Transpose of a Matrix.

C Program to find the Transpose of  a Matrix.       In this example, we will find the transpose of a given matrix according to the requirements of the row size and column size.      Here in the output we have entered a 3x2 Matrix whose transpose will be 2x3 Matrix. PROGRAM #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> int   main () {      int   row , column , i , j , a [ 100 ][ 100 ];      printf ( "Enter the row size of the matrix :" );      scanf ( " %d " ,& row );      printf ( "Enter the column size of the matrix : " );      scanf ( " %d " ,& column );      printf ( "Enter the elements of the matrix : " );      for ( i = 0 ; i < row ; i ++)     {  ...

C Program to Add Two Matrices Using Multi-dimensional Array.

C Program to Add Two Matrices Using Multi-dimensional Array.       In this example, we will add two matrices using multi-dimensional array. Two matrices can be added if they are equal means their order/dimensions must be same. Addition of matrices is performed by adding the corresponding elements of the two matrices.     Here in the Output we have  allowed the user to enter the row and column size of their matrices according to their requirements but they can enter the value of row size and column size less than 100. PROGRAM #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> int   main () {      int   row , column , i , j , a [ 100 ][ 100 ], b [ 100 ][ 100 ], c [ 100 ][ 100 ];      printf ( "Enter the row size of the matrices(max. value 100) : " );      scanf ( " %d " ,& row );      printf ( "Enter the co...

C Program to input Values in a 2x2 square matrix and display the value

 C Program to input Values in a 2x2 square matrix and display the value     In this example, we will accept values from the user in a 2x2 square and matrix and then it is displayed. To solve this problem we must know what is matrices and arrays. What are Arrays?      An array is a data structure for storing more than one data member of similar data type.          Array can be of following types: One-dimensional Array Two-dimensional Array Multi-dimensional Array             In Array we must always initialize values. PROGRAM #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> int   main () {      int   a [ 2 ][ 2 ], i , j ;      printf ( "Enter the values of the matrix:" );      for ( i = 0 ; i < 2 ; i ++)     {          for ( j = 0 ; j < 2 ...
