Hi People,
I have a doubt in C program.
Suppose i have declared int i = 1234;
If I want to print only 12 (first 2 digits) using printf statement, please
suggest how do i implement it.

You can convert the int to a string with sprintf(), then truncate the
string after the first two characters, then display the string.

Alternatively, if you want to achieve a result of 12 mathematically,
you can use modulus (%) and division (/) :

(i - (i % 100)) / 100

== 12
