c++ colored output code example

Example 1: c++ print colorful

//the following are UBUNTU/LINUX, and MacOS ONLY terminal color codes.
#define RESET   "\033[0m"
#define BLACK   "\033[30m"      /* Black */
#define RED     "\033[31m"      /* Red */
#define GREEN   "\033[32m"      /* Green */
#define YELLOW  "\033[33m"      /* Yellow */
#define BLUE    "\033[34m"      /* Blue */
#define MAGENTA "\033[35m"      /* Magenta */
#define CYAN    "\033[36m"      /* Cyan */
#define WHITE   "\033[37m"      /* White */
#define BOLDBLACK   "\033[1m\033[30m"      /* Bold Black */
#define BOLDRED     "\033[1m\033[31m"      /* Bold Red */
#define BOLDGREEN   "\033[1m\033[32m"      /* Bold Green */
#define BOLDYELLOW  "\033[1m\033[33m"      /* Bold Yellow */
#define BOLDBLUE    "\033[1m\033[34m"      /* Bold Blue */
#define BOLDMAGENTA "\033[1m\033[35m"      /* Bold Magenta */
#define BOLDCYAN    "\033[1m\033[36m"      /* Bold Cyan */
#define BOLDWHITE   "\033[1m\033[37m"      /* Bold White */

Example 2: print text colour C++

#include <stdio.h>



// [0;31m	Red
// [1;31m	Bold Red
// [0;32m	Green
// [1;32m	Bold Green
// [0;33m	Yellow
// [01;33m	Bold Yellow
// [0;34m	Blue
// [1;34m	Bold Blue
// [0;35m	Magenta
// [1;35m	Bold Magenta
// [0;36m	Cyan
// [1;36m	Bold Cyan
// [0m	Reset




int main () {
  printf("\033[1;31m");
  printf("Hello world\n");
  printf("\033[0m;")
  return 0;
}

Example 3: cout color

#define RESET   "\033[0m"
#define BLACK   "\033[30m"      /* Black */
#define RED     "\033[31m"      /* Red */
#define GREEN   "\033[32m"      /* Green */
#define YELLOW  "\033[33m"      /* Yellow */
#define BLUE    "\033[34m"      /* Blue */
#define MAGENTA "\033[35m"      /* Magenta */
#define CYAN    "\033[36m"      /* Cyan */
#define WHITE   "\033[37m"      /* White */
#define BOLDBLACK   "\033[1m\033[30m"      /* Bold Black */

Example 4: c++ colored output

// For windows only
#include <Windows.h>

std::string textColor(int colorID = 1, std::string textToColor = "") {
		SetConsoleTextAttribute(GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE), colorID);
		return textToColor;
}

// Usage: std::cout << textColor(1, "example");

// Color ID's
/*
1: Blue
2: Green
3: Cyan
4: Red
5: Purple
6: Dark Yellow
7: White
8: Grey
9: Bright blue
10: Brigth green
11: Bright cyan
12: Bright red
13: Pink
14: Yellow
15: Bright white
*\

Example 5: c++ colored output
