The first 16 characters of ASCII, including zero, are nonprinting control characters. The ASCII letter '0' is not the binary number 0. Try this:
It's actually 48, you see. It's not a real number, just a code representing a letter on the screen. To get a real number out you have to translate.
The ASCII characters 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 are conveniently in order, probably designed that way. So subtracting '0' from '0' gets 0, subtracting '0' from '1' gets 1, and so forth.
hey everyone!
got another problem here.
how would i use the getchar() in a prompt:

the way i did it was to define a char variable named ch
and then wrotechar ch

ch = getchar();
printf("Press any key to continue");

There's a replacement in bash for getchar or get functions of C and C++?Those functions read the next char avaliable in the input stream.
I've tried something like:
OLD_STTY=`stty -g`
stty cbreak -echo
look=`dd if=/dev/tty bs=1 count=1 2>/dev/null`
stty $OLD_STTY
But it is not working... (3 Replies)

Hi,
I would like to read an input from keyboard using getchar. However, if no input (No Carriage return/new line none whatsoever) is given after say, 5 seconds, I would like to skip the getchar and move on. How do I do this in C. I'm using GNU compiler set.
Thanks, (5 Replies)
I wanted to make a simple program that writes chracters in a file but i didnt want to press enter .So i found the getchar which doesnt need enter.If i pass (int) getchar to putc ,in the file it shows a P character.The (int) getchar says it is equal to1734747216 so i do (int) getchar-1734747216...

Hi,
What happens to process state when getchar() is called? I wrote a C code in which I call getchar() somewhere down the road. I forgot about that, I started the process, put it in bg and disowned it using "disown". Now, how do I see where that process has gone/how do kill it?
Thanks,

For example, in this command:
ls /etc/rc0.d/ -print
ls /etc/rc0.d/ -printfThe outputs are quite different, why? (7 Replies)

ctype(3C)ctype(3C)NAME
ctype: isalnum(), isalpha(), isascii(), isblank(), iscntrl(), isdigit(), isgraph(), islower(), isprint(), ispunct(), isspace(), isupper(),
isxdigit() - classify characters according to type
SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION
These functions classify character-coded integer values according to the rules of the coded character set identified by the last successful
call to (see setlocale(3C)). Each function is a predicate returning nonzero for true, zero for false.
If has not been called successfully, characters are classified according to the rules of the default ASCII 7-bit coded character set (see
setlocale(3C)).
is defined on all integer values; the other functions are defined for the range (EOF) through
RETURN VALUE
The functions return nonzero under the following circumstances; zero otherwise:
c is an alphanumeric (letters or digits).
c is a letter.
c is any ASCII character code between 0 and 0177, inclusive.
c is a blank character; that is, a space or a tab.
c is a control character (in ASCII: character codes less than 040 and the delete character(0177)).
c is a decimal digit (in ASCII: characters [0-9]).
c is a visible character (in ASCII: printing characters, excluding the space character(040)).
c is a lowercase letter.
c is a printing character.
c is a punctuation character (in ASCII: any printing character except the space character(040), digits, letters).
c is a character that creates whitespace in displayed text (in ASCII: space, tab, carriage return, newline, verti-
cal tab, and formfeed).
c is an uppercase letter.
c is a hexadecimal digit (in ASCII: characters [0-9], [A-F] or [a-f]).
If the argument to any of these functions is outside the domain of the function, the result is undefined.
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
Environment Variables
The category determines the classification of character type.
International Code Set Support
Single-byte character code sets are supported.
WARNINGS
These functions are supplied both as library functions and as macros defined in the header. Normally, the macro versions are used. To
obtain the library function, either use a to remove the macro definition or, if compiling in ANSI-C mode, enclose the function name in
parenthesis or take its address. The following example uses the library functions for and
