Calling a bunch of text by a keyword
Hey guys,
I just started programming with C and I was wondering if its possible to call a bunch of text instead of repeating the printf commands.
For example I want to display the following banner (which reads "data storage system" made up of the # characters sorry it looks all messy lol) different areas of the program, but i dont want to keep copying and pasting coz it takes up so many lines.... is there a way to store it and give it a name then call the name when ever i need the banner to be displayed.
Sorry if it doesn't make any sense just new to this programming business lol
Thanks in advance
Code:
printf("*******************************************************************************\n");
printf("* *\n");
printf("* ## # ## # ## # *\n");
printf("* # # ## ### ## # ### ### ### ## ### ### # # # ## ### ### ### *\n");
printf("* # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # ## # ### # # ## ### *\n");
printf("* # # ### ## ### # ## ### # ### ## ### # # ## ## ### # # *\n");
printf("* ## ## ### ## ### *\n");
printf("* *\n");
printf("*******************************************************************************\n");
