Formatted Output: The Forgotten C Facility

Authors: K. S. Ooi

Even though input and output facilities are critical in programming, we usually do not spend too much time on them in programming courses. When we teach a programming course to beginners, there are other more pressing topics we must cover, and therefore we do not allocate too much time on input/output facilities, other than using them to perform simple tasks of taking input from keyboard and output the result on the screen. In this article, we focus on formatted output facilities of C. The signatures of format in formatted output of C using printf can still be found in Python.
