Question

I have a question about creating a new line using the new line command in Xcode. The version of Xcode that I am using is 4.6.3. I am creating my current projects in OS X, under Application, the sub category Command Line Tool, and then I am doing it in the C programming language. I know that use use the printf command to execute the command. If is possible, I would like help on knowing how to do it. I will give a medal out to the person who can help me answer my question.
Thanks if anyone can help,

Answer 1

A new line with printf? \n

Answer 2

Yes

Answer 3

is that the X11 that looks like a terminal?
they've removed that under OSX Mountain Lion but new command line
but you generally just install a new command line tools.

Answer 4

The escaped n is the newline in C\C++
```
printf("\n");
```

Here is what I meant to say printf("/n'); or printf("\n");

Answer 10

Answer 17

K

Answer 18

He said with printf, not cout.

Answer 19

k then \n
LOL

Answer 20

Do you program @nincompoop and @e.mccormick?

Answer 21

I did C, C# and C++ a while back.

Answer 22

What languages are your favorites?

Answer 23

Professionally? No. Can I? Yes, some things. Know a bit of C++, Python, VBas, and HTML, used Perl and BASIC years ago, and am learning Java at the moment because it is required for my degree.

Answer 24

I am learning C and then am going on to Objective C.

Answer 25

I chose to learn C because I know that it is the basis for almost all of the modern programming languages.

Answer 26

yeh did those too. but I am not that proficient in Python, since it became popular when I've already stopped programming, and I am not a fan of Java for old time's sake.

Answer 27

It seems that most programmers end up regularly using 3 to 5 languages and most know 5. Some of these may be closely related, like C and C++, or somewhat related like either of those and Java. Usually it comes down to 1 or 2 that they work in for production, a script language, and others they have found useful.

Answer 28

Ok. Thanks so much for the help again both of you @e.mccormick and @nincompoop.
Have a great rest of your night,

Answer 29

C to learn programming is not a great choice. C because you plan on doing OS development, drivers, etc. is a good choice. Why? Because C is not really that related to modern programming techniques. It is a bit distant from the features that newer languages have. It is still a wonderful language for being more directly tied to the machine code, but most coders do not want or need that.

Answer 30

Ok.

Answer 31

The three long term use and starting languages most universities use are C++, Java, and Python. They all display more modern techniques than C. C++ is best if you know you will be using C later. Java is best if you plan on working towards Android development. Python is best if you want to learn a scripting language right off that happens to also be used for much more. And there are several other reasons for each one. I just list those singular reasons as examples.

Answer 32

Ok
