Printing Variables

You've already seen me do a printf() magic a few times. Unfortunately, in C it isn't as easy to do string interpolation (what f-strings do in Python).

Instead of:

print(f"Hello, {name}. You're {age} years old.")

We have to tell C how we want particular values to be printed using "format specifiers".

Common format specifiers are:

%d – digit (integer)
%c – character
%f – floating point number
%s – string (char *)

printf("Hello, %s. You're %d years old.\n", name, age);

Newline Character

The print() function in Python automatically adds a newline character (\n) at the end of the string. In C, we have to do this manually.

printf("Hello, world!\n");

Assignment

In the space provided print:

Default max threads: A
Custom perms: B
Constant pi value: C
Sneklang title: D

Use format specifiers to replace A-D with the already provided variables.

Do not add precision to the floating point number.
