4.20.1.scanf

The scanf function: read information from a standard input device (keyboard).

scanf("conversion specifier", variable);

The conversion specifier argument tells scanf how to convert the incoming data.

scanf starts with a string argument and may contain additional arguments.
Additional arguments must be pointers.
scanf returns the number of successful inputs.

Common Conversion Specifiers Used with Scanf

Conversion Specifier	Description
%d	Receives integer value
%f	Receives floating-point numbers
%c	Receives character

#include <stdio.h>



main()

{

    int i = 0;

    int k,j=10;



    printf("Input three integers and press enter to confirm.");



    i=scanf("%d%d%d",&j,&k,&i);

    printf("total values inputted %d\n",i);

    printf("The input values %d %d\n",j,k);

}

Input three integers and press enter to confirm.1 2 3
total values inputted 3
The input values 1 2
