How to display hexadecimal numbers in C?

Question

I have a list of numbers as below:

0, 16, 32, 48 ...

I need to output those numbers in hexadecimal as:

00

Answer 1

i use it like this:

printf("my number is 0x%02X\n",number);
// output: my number is 0x4A

Just change number "2" to any number of chars You want to print ;)

Answer 2

Your code has no problem. It does print the way you want. Alternatively, you can do this:

printf("%04x",a);

Answer 3

Try:

printf("%04x",a);

• 0 - Left-pads the number with zeroes (0) instead of spaces, where padding is specified.
• 4 (width) - Minimum number of characters to be printed. If the value to be printed is shorter than this number, the result is right justified within this width by padding on the left with the pad character. By default this is a blank space, but the leading zero we used specifies a zero as the pad char. The value is not truncated even if the result is larger.
• x - Specifier for hexadecimal integer.

Answer 4

You can use the following snippet code:

#include<stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[]){
    unsigned int i;
    printf("decimal  hexadecimal\n");
    for (i = 0; i <= 256; i+=16)
        printf("%04d     0x%04X\n", i, i);
    return 0;
}

It prints both decimal and hexadecimal numbers in 4 places with zero padding.
