Hi all,

Does anybody have an idea for following:
…
unsigned short dd,cc;

scanf("%X", &dd);
scanf("%X", &cc);

printf(" dd:%X, cc:%X", dd,cc);

…

INPUT> 2
INPUT> 3

…
OUTPUT> 0, 3





Any ideas will be appreciated,

thanks in advance,

%X expect a int, you are passing and short, so scanf will
write 4 bytes in in value dd and 4 bytes in value cc. You need
%hX i beleive.

Printf alone doesn’t have a problem because of the implicit conversion from
short to int.
