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 Check Even or Odd Without Modulous and Bitwise Operator

  C Program to Check Even or Odd Without Modulous and Bitwise Operator                   In this example we will check even or odd without Modulous Operator. To do this program we should know what is even and odd number.                   Even Number: Even numbers are those numbers which are divisible by 2. That means if we divide a number by 2 and if its remainder appears 0 then it is an even number.                                 For Example: 2,4,6,8,10,12,.... are all even numbers.                              ...

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 find Mean and Standard deviation(SD) for a set of n numbers using array.

 C Program to find Mean and Standard deviation(SD) for a set of n numbers using array.     In this example, we will calculate the mean and standard deviation for a set of n numbers entered by the user using array.    PROGRAM TO FIND THE MEAN AND STANDARD DEVIATION(SD) FOR A SET OF N NUMBERS USING ARRAY. #include <stdio.h> #include <math.h> #include <conio.h> void   main () {      int   n , i ;      float   x [ 50 ], mean , sd , sum ;      printf ( "How many numbers you want to enter : " );      scanf ( " %d " ,& n );      printf ( "Enter the numbers " );      for ( i = 0 ; i < n ; i ++)      {          scanf ( " %f " ,& x [ i ]);     }      f...

C Program to Calculate the Factorial of a number using Function

  C Program to Calculate the Factorial of a number using Function.     In this example, we will calculate the factorial of a number using function. Here we have used functions with Arguments and return value to perform this operation. We have declared a user-defined function fact which is called in the main function when printing the result. What is a Factorial of  a Number?      The factorial of a number is the product of all positive integers less than, equal to n. Factorial is denoted by the symbol '!'. Formula of factorial is n!=n x (n-1)! For example: 6!= 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x1    = 720 PROGRAM TO CALCULATE THE FACTORIAL OF A NUMBER USING FUNCTION #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> int   fact ( int ); void   main () {      int   n ;      printf ( "Enter the number : " );      scanf ( " %d " ,& n );   ...

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 ++)       ...
