C Program To Print Uppercase Alphabet(A-Z) using While loop

In this video tutorial we show you how to write C program to print all the upper case alphabets(A-Z) using simple while loop.

Note: In C programming language, every character variable holds an ASCII value rather than the character itself. You can check ASCII value of all the characters here: C Program To Print All ASCII Characters and Code

Note:
ASCII value range of upper case alphabets:
ASCII value of A is 65.
ASCII value of B is 66.
ASCII value of C is 67.
and so on till Z ..
ASCII value of Z is 90.

Source Code: C Program To Print Uppercase Alphabet(A-Z) using While loop

#include < stdio.h >

int main()
{
    char ch = 'A';

    printf("Uppercase English Alphabets:\n");
    while(ch <= 'Z')
    {
        printf("%c ", ch);
        ch++;
    }
    printf("\n\n");

    return 0;
}

Output:
Uppercase English Alphabets:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Logic To Print Uppercase Alphabet(A-Z) using While loop

Each alphabet has it’s own(unique) ASCII value. So we initialize the character variable to A, and then using while loop we iterate until our character variable is equal to Z. C program checks with the characters underlying ASCII values. Inside while loop we increment the value of character variable by one for each iteration and also print the character present in it.

Source Code: C Program To Check Whether a Character is an Alphabet or Not

#include < stdio.h >

int main()
{
    char c;

    printf("Enter a character\n");
    scanf("%c", &c);

    if( (c >= 'a' && c <= 'z') ||
        (c >= 'A' && c <= 'Z') )
    {
        printf("%c is an alphabet\n", c);
    }
    else
    {
        printf("%c is not an alphabet\n", c);
    }

    return 0;
}

Output 1:
Enter a character
5
5 is not an alphabet

Output 2:
Enter a character
a
a is an alphabet

Output 3:
Enter a character
$
$ is not an alphabet

Output 4:
Enter a character
S
S is an alphabet

Output 5:
Enter a character
#
# is not an alphabet

Logic To Check Whether a Character is an Alphabet or Not

We accept the character from user as input. We check if the user entered character is greater than or equal to a and less than or equal to z OR the user entered character is greater than or equal to A and less than or equal to Z. If these conditions are met, then user entered character is an alphabet or else its not.

C Program To Print All ASCII Characters and Value

Lets write a C program to print/display all ASCII characters and its corresponding value / code.

Note: In C programming language, every alphabet, number and symbol has corresponding ASCII value(a integer number representing the character).

Note:
Total number of Character in ASCII is 256 (0 to 255).
0 to 31(total 32 character) is called as ASCII control characters.
32 to 127 character is called as ASCII printable characters.
128 to 255 is called as The extended ASCII codes.

C Program to Print ASCII Value of a Character

Lets write a C program to print/display ASCII value of a user entered character.

Note: In C programming language, every alphabet, number and symbol has corresponding ASCII value(a integer number representing the character).

Data Type

char is character data type in C programming language. It stores single character information in it and has a corresponding integer value for the character, which is its ASCII value.

Source Code: C Program to Print ASCII Value of a Character

#include < stdio.h >

int main()
{
    char c;

    printf("Enter a character\n");
    scanf("%c", &c);

    printf("ASCII value of %c is %d\n", c, c);

    return 0;
}

Output 1:
Enter a character
A
ASCII value of A is 65

Output 2:
Enter a character
a
ASCII value of a is 97

Output 3:
Enter a character
1
ASCII value of 1 is 49

Output 4:
Enter a character
0
ASCII value of 0 is 48

Output 5:
Enter a character
$
ASCII value of $ is 36

Keywords, Constants, Variables: C

Computers do not understand English language. It can only understand machine code, a binary stream of 1s and 0s.

Learning The Building Blocks of C programming Language

To learn any language we need to first learn alphabets, then we learn to write sentences and then to write paragraphs. Similarly, in learning C programming language, we first learn about the Character Set(Alphabets, Digits, Special Symbols), next we learn words(keywords, variables, constants), and then we learn statements(C programming instructions), and then we write C programs.

Keywords, Identifiers And Literals: C

Keywords

Every word in a C program is classified as either a keyword or an identifier. All keywords have fixed meanings predefined in the language and these meanings can not be changed.

Identifier / Literals

In programming languages, constants are usually called as literals and variables are called as identifiers.

Constants / Variables

As name suggests, a constant is an entity whose value doesn’t change during the course of program execution. A variable, on the other hand, is an entity whose value may change during the course of program execution.



C Constants

C Constants can be divided into 2 categories.
1. Primary Constants.
2. Secondary Constants.

Primary Constants are further divided into Integer Constants, Real Constants and Character constants.

Keyword for Integer is int and the format specifier is %d.
Keyword for Real is float or double and the format specifier is %f.
Keyword for Character is char and the format specifier is %c.

 
#include < stdio.h >
int main()
{
    const int a = 5;

    a = a + 1;

    printf("Value of a is %d", a);
}

Output:
error: Assignment of read-only variable ‘a’.

a is a constant variable and thus its value can not be changed through the course of program execution.

 
#include < stdio.h >
int main()
{
    int a = 5;

    a = a + 1;

    printf("Value of a is %d", a);
}

Output:
Value of a is 6

Note: Literals are constant values and not constant variables.
