I made a program to convert decimal to octal but it's printing the output in reverse order. Is there maybe a way to store the data that the program is printing so that i can reverse it?

#include <stdio.h>

int main(){
    int n;
    printf("Enter the interger");
    scanf("%d",&n);
    int q=n;
    if (n<8)
        printf("%d",n);
    else{
        while(q>=8){
            int r=q%8;
            q=q/8;
            printf("%d",r);

        }
    printf("%d",q);
    }
    return 0;
}

Eyy boss

you can put it in an array. – Barmar Nov 19 '21 at 16:59
BTW, you misspelled "integer". – Barmar Nov 19 '21 at 16:59
@Barmar I dont want to use array I haven't learned that yet – Eyy boss Nov 19 '21 at 17:00
Are you allowed to use `printf()`? – Barmar Nov 19 '21 at 17:02
yes im allowed to use everything I've written in my code. No for loops yet. – Eyy boss Nov 19 '21 at 17:04
See https://beginnersbook.com/2017/09/c-program-to-convert-decimal-to-octal-number/ – Barmar Nov 19 '21 at 17:08
The solution involves creating a decimal number whose digits are the digits from the octal number. – Barmar Nov 19 '21 at 17:09
@Eyyboss in dupe you have my answer converting from decimal to anybase number (base <= 36) – 0___________ Nov 19 '21 at 17:12
If you can use printf, you just need `scanf("%d", &n); printf("%o", n);` – Chris Dodd Nov 20 '21 at 01:57
