- PRINTF(3) Minix Programmer's Manual PRINTF(3)
- NAME
- printf, fprintf, sprintf, snprintf, vprintf, vfprintf, vsprintf,
- vsnprintf - formatted output conversion
- SYNOPSIS
- #include <sys/types.h>
- #include <stdio.h>
- #include <stdarg.h>
- int printf(const char *format [, arg] ...);
- int fprintf(FILE *stream, const char *format [, arg] ...);
- int sprintf(char *s, const char *format [, arg] ...);
- int snprintf(char *s, size_t n, const char *format [, arg] ...);
- int vprintf(const char *format, va_list args);
- int vfprintf(FILE *stream, const char *format, va_list args);
- int vsprintf(char *s, const char *format, va_list args);
- int vsnprintf(char *s, size_t n, const char *format, va_list args);
- DESCRIPTION
- Printf places output on the standard output stream stdout. Fprintf
- places output on the named output stream. Sprintf places `output' in the
- string s, followed by the character ` '. Snprintf (Minix-vmd only) is
- like sprintf except that no more than n-1 characters are written to s
- followed by a ` '.
- The v*printf functions can be used to make functions like the first four
- by using the stdarg(3) method to process the argument.
- Each of these functions converts, formats, and prints its arguments after
- the first under control of the first argument. The first argument is a
- character string which contains two types of objects: plain characters,
- which are simply copied to the output stream, and conversion
- specifications, each of which causes conversion and printing of the next
- successive arg.
- Each conversion specification is introduced by the character %. The
- remainder of the conversion specification includes in the following order
- o Zero or more of following flags:
- o a `#' character specifying that the value should be converted to an
- ``alternate form''. For c, d, s, and u conversions, this option has
- no effect. For o conversions, the precision of the number is
- increased to force the first character of the output string to a
- zero. For x(X) conversion, a non-zero result has the string 0x(0X)
- prepended to it. For e, E, f, g, and G conversions, the result will
- always contain a decimal point, even if no digits follow the point
- (normally, a decimal point only appears in the results of those
- conversions if a digit follows the decimal point). For g and G
- conversions, trailing zeros are not removed from the result as they

- would otherwise be.
- o a minus sign `-' which specifies left adjustment of the converted
- value in the indicated field;
- o a `+' character specifying that there should always be a sign placed
- before the number when using signed conversions.
- o a space specifying that a blank should be left before a positive
- number during a signed conversion. A `+' overrides a space if both
- are used.
- o an optional digit string specifying a field width; if the converted
- value has fewer characters than the field width it will be blank-
- padded on the left (or right, if the left-adjustment indicator has
- been given) to make up the field width; if the field width begins
- with a zero, zero-padding will be done instead of blank-padding;
- o an optional period `.' which serves to separate the field width
- from the next digit string;
- o an optional digit string specifying a precision which specifies the
- number of digits to appear after the decimal point, for e- and f-
- conversion, or the maximum number of characters to be printed from a
- string;
- o the character l specifying that a following d, o, x, or u
- corresponds to a long integer arg.
- o a character which indicates the type of conversion to be applied.
- A field width or precision may be `*' instead of a digit string. In this
- case an integer arg supplies the field width or precision.
- The conversion characters and their meanings are
- dox The integer arg is converted to decimal, octal, or hexadecimal
- notation respectively.
- X Like x, but use upper case instead of lower case.
- f The float or double arg is converted to decimal notation in the
- style `[-]ddd.ddd' where the number of d's after the decimal point
- is equal to the precision specification for the argument. If the
- precision is missing, 6 digits are given; if the precision is
- explicitly 0, no digits and no decimal point are printed.
- e The float or double arg is converted in the style `[-]d.ddde+dd'
- where there is one digit before the decimal point and the number
- after is equal to the precision specification for the argument; when

- PRINTF(3) Minix Programmer's Manual PRINTF(3)
- the precision is missing, 6 digits are produced.
- g The float or double arg is printed in style d, in style f, or in
- style e, whichever gives full precision in minimum space.
- c The character arg is printed.
- s Arg is taken to be a string (character pointer) and characters from
- the string are printed until a null character or until the number of
- characters indicated by the precision specification is reached;
- however if the precision is 0 or missing all characters up to a null
- are printed.
- u The unsigned integer arg is converted to decimal and printed.
- % Print a `%'; no argument is converted.
- In no case does a non-existent or small field width cause truncation of a
- field; padding takes place only if the specified field width exceeds the
- actual width. Characters generated by printf are printed by putc(3).
- Examples
- To print a date and time in the form `Sunday, July 3, 10:02', where
- weekday and month are pointers to null-terminated strings:
- printf("%s, %s %d, %02d:%02d", weekday, month, day, hour, min);
- To print pi to 5 decimals:
- printf("pi = %.5f", 4*atan(1.0));
