Decimal Places in C

[Arthur Lucas]

I know that to print the number 2.0000 to 2 decimal places I print% .2 f. But my question is:

input:
2
1000
20
200
output
0002
1000
0020
0200

how to increase the decimal places from right to left?

Have you tried %04d?

very interesting your MSDN link in *NIX forum ...

printf is from the standard library. What does it matter who describes it?

[modoran]

Because Microsoft has non-standard extensions to printf() family of functions, which is only available with Visual Studio compiler.

I guess support for __int32 and __int64 are a hint.

Point taken.
