C Program for ASCII value of a character

A character variable holds ASCII value (an integer number between 0 and 127) rather than that character itself in C programming. That value is known as ASCII value.

For example, ASCII value of 'A' is 65.

What this means is that, if you assign 'A' to a character variable, 65 is stored in that variable rather than 'A' itself.

Program to Print ASCII Value

#include <stdio.h>
void main()
{
    char c;
    printf("Enter a character: ");
    scanf("%c", &c);  
    printf("ASCII value of %c = %d", c, c);
}
