        The printf() function uses format specifiers to print variables in a specific format.
    

    
#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    int age = 21;
    float salary = 25000.50;
    char grade = 'A';

    printf("Age: %d
", age);
    printf("Salary: %.2f
", salary);
    printf("Grade: %c
", grade);

    return 0;
}

          %d prints integer
          %.2f prints float with 2 decimal places
