Hello
Is it possible to have an amount of free space before something gets printed?
like:
the cost is sometimes 2 digits or 4 digits depending on which option the user has selected, and since there are more than 1 printf they don't always align. Is there a way to have them align even if the numbers area different at different times?printf("Cost $%lf", cost)
Thanks
Code:printf("Cost $%4lf", cost);
That worked but the Dollar sign stays all the way at the beginning at the price gets printed with the space. Is there anyway to make the dollar sign move with it too?
Thanks
Code:char* output = cost >= 100 ? "Cost $%4lf" : "Cost $%2lf"; printf(output, cost);
sprintf(temp,"$%f", cost );
printf("Cost %4s", temp );
There's no such format as %lf, it's just %f for floats and doubles.
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
%lf is supported by extension I believe in some compilers. It's real usage, however, is for the scanf() family of functions.
