if the output of the program is unpredictable unless you run it. what will a program that
prints the above statement look like?

Only you can tell us the answer to that question.

Outside of the limited requirements that you have posted already (in 
2020, and now), we have no idea of what this program does, or how it does 
it. In 2020, you received a number of suggestions, including both a 
solution to the problem as you presented it then, and a framework 
solution for the problem as you present it now. I suggest that you either 
review those solutions posted in 2020, or provide more details on the 
function and operation of the program you seek.

no, i changed from "FL:1" to "VL:1"

the actual statement is
"FC: 100% VL:1 time:0.0s"

Ohh... That's easy then

Just take one of the solutions provided in 2020 and alter it so
that it contains "VL:1" instead of "FL:1".

You seem not to understand what people are asking from you.

You've asked us how to write a C program to display a particular string.
You've only shown us the string itself, and told us nothing about its
meaning.  We can see that it includes some numbers, but you haven't told
us how they're computed or what they mean, if anything.  As far as we
can tell, they're just sequences of decimal digits.  The whole string
you showed us is fundamentally different than "hello, world"

This line of code:

    puts("FC: 100% VL:1 time:0.0s");

satisfies your requirements *as you have stated them to us*.  We all
understand that it doesn't meet your actual requirements, but you
haven't told us what those requirements are.  Can the "FC" and "VL"
substrings vary?  If so, how?  Can the 100% and 0.0 numbers vary?  If
so, how are they determined?

You've also shown no attempt to solve the problem yourself.

We have given you all the help that we can with the information we have.

You got several answers when you first posted that, which met all the
requirements you specified. If none of them were acceptable (as seems
likely), you need to identify the additional requirements that you left
out of your earlier message (and this one).

The only thing you have specified about the program is the output, so
anything that meets that specification is guaranteed to produce that
output, so how could it be unpredictable?
