textcolor in c

textcolor function is used to change the color of drawing text in c programs.

Declaration :- void textcolor(int color);
where color is an integer variable. For example 0 means BLACK color, 1 means BLUE, 2 means GREEN and soon. You can also use write appropriate color instead of integer. For example you can write textcolor(YELLOW); to change text color to YELLOW. But use colors in capital letters only.

C programming code to change text color
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>

main()
{
   textcolor(RED);
   cprintf("C programming");

   getch();
   return 0;
}
C programming code for blinking text
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>

main()
{
   textcolor(MAGENTA+BLINK);
   cprintf("C programming");

   getch();
   return 0;
}
Note that we have used cprintf function instead of printf. This is because cprintf send formatted output to text window on screen and printf sends it to stdin.

Difference between asterisk and ampersand operators in c

Address Operator (& - Ampersand): Returns address of the given variable.  Consider the following example, int *ptr, var = 10; ptr = &var; ptr = &var sets the address of the variable var to pointer ptr.  & is also called as reference operator. Let us try to understand the purpose of reference operator using the following example program.   #include <stdio.h>   int main() {         int var = 10, *ptr;         /* assigning address of variable var to pointer ptr */         ptr = &var;         /* printing the address of the variable var */         printf("Address of var is 0x%x\n", &var);         /* printing the value of pointer ptr */         printf("Value of ptr is 0x%x\n", ptr);         return 0;   }   Output:   jp@jp-VirtualBox:~/$ ./a.out   Address of var is 0xbfdf202c   Value of ptr is 0xbfdf202c Indirection Operator('*' - asterisk): The dereference operator is an unary operator which returns the value of

kbhit in c

kbhit in c: kbhit function is used to determine if a key has been pressed or not. To use kbhit function in your program you should include the header file "conio.h". If a key has been pressed then it returns a non zero value otherwise returns zero. Declaration : int kbhit(); C programming code for kbhit #include <stdio.h> #include <conio.h> main() {    while (!kbhit())       printf("You haven't pressed a key.\n");    return 0; } As long as in the above program user doesn't presses a key kbhit() return zero and (!0) i.e. 1 the condition in while loop is true and "You haven't pressed a key." will be printed again and again. As a key is pressed from the keyboard the condition in while loop become false as now kbhit() will return a non-zero value and ( !(non-zero) = 0), so the control will come out of the while loop.
