                       SOLUTION                       

GO

  Let's pretend to be the C compiler

  in solving this problem.

  Assume that we are given 4 (four) variables:

       char name[];  with value of  c_class

       int    a;     with value of  27

       float  b;     with value of  137.6

       char   c;     with value of  K

  Using the variable a as the argument,

  please type in the result produced with

  the format specifier %5d:

               12345

 Enter here:   

 That is correct!

 You've got it on the 2nd try.

 You've got it finally!

 Think about it; the result is right-justified.

 You should have 3 blanks followed by 27

               12345

FORGET1

   The correct choice is    27

                         12345

  Using the variable a as the argument,

  please type in the result produced with

  the format specifier %7o:

               1234567

 Enter here:   

 That is correct!

 You've got it on the 2nd try.

 You've got it finally!

 Think about it; the result is right-justified.

 You should have 5 blanks followed by 33

               1234567

FORGET2

   The correct choice is      33

                         1234567

  Using the variable a as the argument

  please type in the result produced with

  the format specifier %5x:

               12345

 Enter here:   

??? CR gets correct match

 That is correct!

 You've got it on the 2nd try.

 You've got it finally!
