To create string in C, we commony we use char. For example :
1 | char alphabet = "a" |
At this point, char in C basically represents a byte. So yes, “a” equal with one byte. Just remember, everything you see char in C it’s mean byte.
Another things we should know is string structure in C is array. It have null “ ” for detecting the end of string. This may have different approach with other programming language.
Now, we can find out print ASCII number from given letter of alphabet in C by :
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 | #include<stdio.h> int main() { char alphabet; alphabet = ‘a’; /* Use %c to type of char and %d to print ASCII number */ printf("This is ‘%c’ with number in ASCII %dn", alphabet, alphabet); return 0; } |
