How will this call assign values when the user input is `29␠w` (a space between 29 and w)?
scanf("%i%c", &i, &c);
3
i = 29, c = garbage value
✓ Solution
Solution:
`%i` reads an integer and **skips leading whitespace**, so it consumes `29`.
`%c` reads the **next character exactly as-is** (does **not** skip whitespace).
The next character after `29` is the space.
Therefore: $i=29$, $c=$ space `' '`.
