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 convert a given temperature value from Fahrenheit to Centigrade and vice versa?

  Write a C program to convert a given temperature value from Fahrenheit to Centigrade and vice versa?          In this example we will learn how to convert a given temperature in Fahrenheit to Centigrade and to convert given  temperature value from Centigrade to Fahrenheit depending on the choice of the user.                To solve this program we should have basic knowledge in c and most importantly a clear concept on : Switch Statement             And we must know the formula of conversion from Fahrenheit to Centigrade(Celsius) and Centigrade(Celsius) to Fahrenheit. Fahrenheit To Centigrade Centigrade To Fahrenheit PROGRAM       #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> void   main () {      float   f , c ;      int   ch ;      printf ( "CONVERT" );      printf ( " \n 1. Fahrenheit to Celsius." );      printf ( " \n 2. Celsius to Fahrenheit \n " );      printf ( " \n Enter your choice (1|2):" );      sca

C++ program to define a class circle to represent circles. Add a data member radius to store the radius of a circle. Write member functions area() and perimeter() to compute the area and perimeter of a circle.

  C++ program to define a class circle to represent circles. Add a data member radius to store the radius of a   circle. Write member functions area() and perimeter() to compute the area and perimeter of a circle.     To define a Circle class in C++, we start by declaring the class with the class keyword, followed by the name of the class. In this case, we'll call it Circle . We'll then define a private data member to store the radius of the circle. Here's the code to do that:    class Circle {      private:      double radius;    };          Next, we need to define public member functions that can set and get the value of the radius, as well as calculate the area and perimeter of the circle. Here's the full code for the Circle class: class Circle { private: double radius; public: void setRadius(double r) { radius = r; } double getRadius() { return radius; } double area() { return 3.14159 * r
