hi
printf("Here it is %d\n",var1);
//%d here mean that var1 will be print as an int.
printf("MSG=%s\n",buf);
//%s here mean that Buf will be print as a char array.
ex)
var1 = 10;
printf("Here it is %d\n",var1);
//will print : Here it is 10
var1 = 'A';
//will print : Here it is 65
--------------------
%c, for char ('a')
%f, for float (5.55)
%d, for double (100000)
etc..

%f for both float and double, %d is for int and %s expects a string - a null-terminated sequence of characters.
Note:
'A' needn't have the integer value 65, since C doesn't require the ASCII character set.
Integer character constants (e.g, 'a') have type int in C.
