Double format specifier : %f, %e or %E Example Program
Double format specifier : %f, %e or %E Example Program
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
float a = 12.67;
printf("%f\n", a);
printf("%e\n", a);
return 0;
}12.670000
1.267000e+01
The %f format specifier is implemented for representing fractional values. This is implemented within printf() function for printing the fractional or floating value stored in the variable. Whenever you need to print any fractional or floating data, you have to use %f format specifier.
printf("%f", <variable name>);First read the algorithm, then study the program code line by line. After that, compare the code with the output and finally go through the explanation. This approach helps learners understand both the logic and the implementation properly.
After understanding this example, try to rewrite the same program without looking at the code. Then change some values or logic and run it again. This helps improve confidence and keeps learners engaged on the page for longer.
