    \n is in fact the combination of carriage return and line feed; so that you go to the beginning og the next line

    Thanks but then what is the function of \r - carriage return?

    Printf ( " sss \r ddd");

    This line prints just ddd. why?

    The carriage return will return the cursor to the leftmost position without going to the next line. Obviously your sss is overwritten by ddd
