I want to format an unsigned int to an 8 digit long string with leading zeroes.

This is what I have so far:

  unsigned int number = 260291273;
  char output[9];
  sprintf(output, "%x", number);
  printf("%s\n", output); // or write it into a file with fputs

Prints “f83bac9”, but I want “0f83bac9”. How can I achieve the formatting?

    Use “%08x” as your format string.
