How to print %s in C?

Question

I want to print "%SomeString%" in C.

Is this correct?

printf("%%s%",SomeString);

Answer 1

No.

Use %%%s%%

Answer 2

No, %% outputs %, so the right syntax is:

printf("%%%s%%",string);

Answer 3

Hi,

You can print a string like this: printf("%s", SomeString);

It should work!

Answer 4

This solution absolves you from knowing how special printf characters like '%' or '\' should be printed.

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
    const char str[]="MyString";
    printf("%c%s%c",'%',str,'%');
    return 0;
}

Answer 5

printf("%%%s%%", string);

Should output a % each side.
