WARNINGS

Notice that with the c conversion character, an int arg is converted to an unsigned char. Hence, whole

multibyte characters cannot be printed using a single

c conversion character.

A precision with the

s conversion character might result in the truncation of a multibyte character.

Use of a conversion character which doesn’t match the type of the corresponding argument passed in will

result in invalid data being returned. For example, the modifying

ll, specifying that the following d, i, o,

u, x,orX conversion character applies to a long long integer arg, is necessary for proper results when the

argument is a long long integer.
