    Hi folks,

    Just a quick question. Are there any other ways apart from using \n and \t for formatting my C Programs to make them look all fancy?? :p

    I presume you mean the output flag specifiers in printf ( )?

    Here's a list of some of them.

    hmm, not sure! You know the way you can use \t for a tab indent and \n to go to the next line etc

    Yes they're escape sequences shortcuts for various ascii codes.

    Here's a list.

    What way do you want to format you're output, the printf flags sound like what you're after.

    That seems to be them alright! I just want to make things look a bit neater on screen. Nothing specific.
