How to Print % in Code in C

Format Specifier:

  • The format specifiers %d and I specify the type of the variable as decimal and integer, respectively.
  • When printing a number with %d or I there is no change in the output of the printf() function; but, with %scanf, there is a difference.
  • While assuming base 10 using%d, the scanf() method finds the base using%i.

Example of Using % :

Run
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{   
    int number;
    printf("Enter an integer = ");
    scanf("%d", &number);
    printf("Entered integer = %d", number);
    return 0;
}

Output:

Enter an integer = 8
Entered integer = 8

Example of Printing % :

Run
#include<stdio.h>
int main ()
{
  printf ("%%");
  getchar ();
  return 0;
}

Output:

Run
#include 
int main()
{
    int a = 50;
    printf("Number = %d", a);
