hi

how can i read formatted input from standard input( instead of scanf )what function can i use to read

I honestly don't know what you want to do, but I'm guessing you want to parse strings. 

If that's the case then I, like @awneill, suggest you take a look at the CLI library as it parses strings sent over UART:

i want to do the similar thing in nordic using termite 

char ch[80];
int n;
int array[3] ={peripheral 1 ,peripheral 2,peripheral 3};
printf ("enter the peripheral number whom you want to send the msg");
scanf("%d", n);
printf("enter the message you want to send");
scanf("%s", ch);

using termite mean uart .

as explained above.

[ps_anu]

i didn't get that thats why i am asking

If you don't understand, then explain what's unclear.

Simply repeating the question endlessly isn't going to help.

Again, note that this is not specific to nRF - exactly the same would apply to any microcontroller. So try looking at some standard microcontroller resources.

Did you look at the links about retargetting?

This one looks like a good starting point:
