Hi people,
I am learning c.
I use gcc compiler.PLz find out the error in this code.
int a,b;
scanf("%d%d",&a,&b);
printf("The numbers are %d and %d."&a,&b);
when I run this,I got some strange negative numbers all times.I first thought it might be because numbers were outside the int range in c.But later I found out for any int
they are giving negative results.

printf("The numbers are %d and %d.",a,b);

you cannot use & operators to print variable value

in the printf statement use a,b instead of &a and &b

if I'm correct the & operator will print the value of the address stored at that location, rather than obtain the value in that memory location?

ie if a = 8; is stored in chip 1000

putting the &a will print out 1000 as opposed to printing out a which would be 8
