Using format specifiers for strings and characters

Our last program is character_string.c, and it begins as follows:

#include <stdio.h>

int main( void )  {

  char  aChar = 'C' ;

  char* pStr  = "Learn to program with C" ;

  // the other code snippets go here.

}

A character value, aChar, is defined with the C value, and a pStr string is defined to point to the start of the "Learn to program with C" string.

Using the string field width, precision, alignment, and zero-filling

When printing a string with the s conversion type, the alignment, minimum field width, and precision modifiers still apply, as follows: 

  printf("String output\n");

  printf("Specifier Formatted Value\n");
