How to align the output using justificationsin C language?
By using justifications in printf statement we can arrange the data in any format.
Right Justification
To implement the right justification, insert a minus sign before the width value in the %s character.
printf("%-15s",text);Program 1
Let’s take an example to print data in row and column-wise with the help of justification.
#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
char a[20] = "Names", b[20]="amount to be paid";
char a1[20] = "Bhanu", b1[20]="Hari",c1[20]="Lucky",d1[20]="Puppy";
int a2=200,b2=400,c2=250,d2=460;
printf("%-15s %-15s
", a, b);
printf("%-15s %-15d
", a1,a2);
printf("%-15s %-15d
", b1,b2);
printf("%-15s %-15d
", c1, c2);
printf("%-15s %-15d
", d1, d2);
return 0;
}Output
Names amount to be paid Bhanu 200 Hari 400 Lucky 250 Puppy 460
Program 2
Consider the same example by changing the justification −
#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
char a[20] = "Names", b[20]="amount to be paid";
char a1[20] = "Bhanu", b1[20]="Hari",c1[20]="Lucky",d1[20]="Puppy";
int a2=200,b2=400,c2=250,d2=460;
printf("%2s %2s
", a, b);
printf("%5s %5d
", a1,a2);
printf("%2s %2d
", b1,b2);
printf("%5s %5d
", c1, c2);
printf("%2s %2d
", d1, d2);
return 0;
}Output
Names amount to be paid Bhanu 200 Hari 400 Lucky 250 Puppy 460 Note: Alignment is note in proper if we not use correct justification
