The printf project is a collaboration between Ebiri ThanGod and Okeomasilachi Onyedibia, actual students of Software Engineering at ALX Africa, were a function named "_printf" imitates the actual "printf" command located in the stdio.h library. It contains some of the basic features and functions found in the manual 3 of "printf". ## printf() The printf project is a collaboration between Ebiri ThanGod and Okeomasilachi Onyedibia, actual students of Software Engineering at ALX Africa, were a function named "_printf" imitates the actual "printf" command located in the stdio.h library. It contains some of the basic features and functions found in the manual 3 of "printf". _printf() is a function that performs formatted output conversion and print data. Its prototype is the following: int _printf(const char *format, ...) Where **format** contains the string that is printed. As _printf() is variadic function, it can receives n arguments that replace by n tags written inside the string. The format tags prototype is the following: %[flags][length]specifier If the program runs successfully, the **return value** is the amount of chars printed. | Specifier | Output | | ------------- | ------------- | | c | Character | | d or i | Signed decimal integer | | s | String of characters | | b | Signed binary | | o | Signed octal | | u | Unsigned integer | | x | Unsigned hexadecimal | | X | Unsigned hexadecimal (uppercase) | | p | Pointer address | | r | Reverse string of characters | | R | ROT13 translation of string | | S | String with special chars replaced by their ASCII value | | % | Character | | Flags | Description | Specifiers | | ------------- | ------------- | ------------- | | + | Prints a plus sign (+) when the argument is a positive number. In other case, prints a minus sign (-). | i, d | | (space) | Prints a blank space if the argument is a positive number | i, d | | # | Prints 0, 0x and 0X for o, x and X specifiers, respectively. It doesn't print anything if the argument is zero | o, x, X | | Length | Description | Specifiers | | ------------- | ------------- | ------------- | | l | Prints a long int or unsigned long int | i, d, o, u, x and X | | h | Prints a short int or unsigned short int | i, d, o, u, x and X | ------------ ## Examples 1.
