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 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 Swap the values of two variables using function.

C Program to Swap the values of two variables using function.     In this example, we swap the values of two variables using function. We have declared a function swap. PROGRAM #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> void   swap ( int *, int  *); int   main () {      int   a , b ;      printf ( "Enter the values of a and b : " );      scanf ( " %d%d " ,& a ,& b );      printf ( "Before swapping the values in main a= %d  , b= %d \n " , a , b );      swap (& a ,& b );      printf ( "After swapping the values in main a= %d  , b= %d \n " , a , b );      getch (); } void   swap ( int  * a , int  * b ) {      int   temp ;    ...

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 ...

C Program to Print first N Even Natural Number/in Reverse Order

  C Program to Print first N Even Natural Number.     In this example, we will find and print the first N even natural. Here we have used for loop to solve this program.      What are Natural Numbers? Natural Numbers are all positive numbers starting from 1 to infinity.      For Example:  1,2,3,4,5,6,.............................,n are all natural numbers. What are Even Numbers? Even numbers are those numbers whose remainder is 0 when divided by 2.     For Example: 2,4,6,8,10,.....,n are all even numbers.   PROGRAM: #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> void   main () {      int   i , x ;      printf ( "Enter the value of N : " );      scanf ( " %d " ,& x );      for ( i = 1 ; i <= x ; i ++)     {          printf ( " %d " , 2...
