uint8_t can’t be printed with cout

by

It doesn’t really print a blank, but most probably the ASCII character with value 5, which is non-printable (or invisible). There’s a number of invisible ASCII character codes, most of them below value 32, which is the blank actually.

You have to convert aa to unsigned int to output the numeric value, since ostream& operator<<(ostream&, unsigned char) tries to output the visible character value.

uint8_t aa=5;

cout << "value is " << unsigned(aa) << endl;
