escape sequences (part-2)

hello guys today, i m gonna  about remaining escape sequences::

\r = carry return character 

so how it works??

/r will return cursor of our console window to the starting of that line for example:

#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

printf("hello \r");

}

output :

hello  //and cursor will return to h

soo if we write

printf("hello \rk");

output :

kello // as cursor is in the position of h and if we further write anything it will overwrite h

\b=backspace character

backspace character is nearly same as \r the only difference is that unlike \r , \b does not shift cursor to the starting of the line rather it just shift's the cursor 1 step back.....

void main()

{

printf("hello\bu");

}

output :

hellu //as \b shifted the cursor 1 step back where o is there .....so after that when we printed u ...it overwrites on o;

\t =tab character 

tab character shifts cursor to the new tab columns ....tab columns consist of 8 spaces 

caution it does not move cursor 8 spaces ahead rather it only moves cursor to the new tab column

ie. if cursor is in 8th position of tab column it only moves cursor 1 step ahead ,if cursor is in 1st position of tab columns then it will move the cursor 8 steps ahead .....
Printf("hello \tuser \nhi \tuser");

 

        Thank u !!!
