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 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 Check Whether a given Number is Prime or Not

 C Program to Check Whether a given Number is  Prime or Not     In this example, we will check whether a given number is Prime or Not. To solve this problem we should know about Prime Numbers. What is a Prime Number?      Prime Numbers are those numbers which can only be divisible by 1 and the number itself.          For Example: 2,3,5,7,etc are prime numbers, as these numbes are only divisible by 1 and the number itself.   PROGRAM: #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> int   main () {      int   x , i , count = 0 ;      printf ( " \n Enter the number : " );      scanf ( " %d " ,& x );      for ( i = 1 ; i <= x ; i ++)     {          if ( x % i == 0 )              count ++; ...

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 Swap Two Numbers Without Using/Using Third Variable

  C PROGRAM TO SWAP TWO NUMBERS.   In this example, we will learn how to swap two numbers using third variable.   FLOWCHART TO SWAP TWO NUMBERS:         PROGRAM:   #include <stdio.h> int   main () {      int   a , b , c ;      printf ( "Enter the value of a : " );      scanf ( "%d" ,& a );      printf ( "Enter the value of b : " );      scanf ( "%d" ,& b );      printf ( " \n Before swapping values of a=%d and b=%d" , a , b );      c = a ;      a = b ;      b = c ;      printf ( " \n After swapping values of a=%d and b=%d" , a , b ); }   OUTPUT:     C PROGRAM TO S...

C Program to check if a given square matrix is symmetric or not using function

 C Program to check if a given square matrix is symmetric or not using function.     In this example, we will check if a given square matrix entered by the user is symmetric or not. Here in the output we have taken a square matrix of 3x3. PROGRAM TO CHECK IF A GIVEN SQUARE MATRIX IS SYMMETRIC OR NOT USING FUNCTION #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> void  symmetric( int , int , int  [50][50]); void  main() {      int  row,column,i,j,a[50][50];     printf( "Enter the size of the matrices: " );     scanf( "%d" ,&row);     column=row;     printf( "Enter the matrix : " );      for (i=0;i<row;i++)     {          for (j=0;j<column;j++)         {    ...
