I'm starting to use or learn c language

Write a program that uses two dimensional of 256x8 to store 8 bit binary representation of each of the character of ASCII character set

I didn't understand this question properly. Should I have to use 2d array? And place 256 characters on them.. give me some advised or help me sort out to this problem

Your question asked you to store the binary representation of all ASCII characters in an array.

As every ASCII character is 8 bit long you need 8 places(ex. int or bool) for each 256 elements total 256*8 2D array.

You can declare the array as,

int codes[256][8];

Now for ASCII of 'a' is 97(dec) or 01100001(bin).

codes[96][0]=0;
codes[96][1]=1;
codes[96][2]=1;
codes[96][3]=0;
codes[96][4]=0;
codes[96][5]=0;
codes[96][6]=0;
codes[96][7]=1;

You can print the binary representation as,

for(int i=0;i<8;i++)
    printf("%d",codes['a'][i]);
