0x11. C - printf

• In the C programming language, printf is a function used to format and print text or other data to the standard output (usually the console). It stands for "print formatted" and is part of the standard C library header file <stdio.h>.

• Printf allows you to combine text and variables in a specific format and then display the formatted output on the screen or in a file.

  

Project Concept

Write a custom-made printf function that displays formatted text to the standard output.

Objectives

• Use various flags and modifiers to control the formatting of the output, such as specifying when to print a single character, an integer, a formatted string, a sentence, decimal places for floating-point numbers, or the width of output fields. The printf function should provide a powerful way to format and display output well-organized.
