Putchar and Getchar in C

putchar(ch);

just prints single character and the following printf continues within the same line. Simply add:

putchar('\n');

right after putchar(ch);, which will explicitly start the new line before the printf is executed. Additionally you should also take '\n' from the input which stays there after you enter the character:

for(i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
    printf("Enter a single character >> ");
    ch = getchar();
    getchar();        // <-- "eat" new-line character
    putchar(ch);
    putchar('\n');    // <-- start new line
}

You are not printing a new line. After putchar(ch); you should use putchar('\n'); to print a new line.

User terminal can operate in canonical and non-canonical modes. By default it operates in canonical mode and this means that standard input is available to a program line-by-line (not symbol-by-symbol). In question user inputs something (let it be letter 'a', 0x61 in hex) and pushes enter (new line character '0x0A' in hex). Ascii table is here. So this action gives a two symbols to a program. As mentioned in man getchar() reads it symbol-by-symbol. So loop iterates twice for one character. To see what is going on use the following program (+loop counter output, +character code output):

#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main() 
{
  int i;
  char ch;
  for(i = 0; i < 10; i++)
  {
    printf("Enter a single character %d >>", i);
    ch = getchar();
    printf("Ch=0x%08X\n", ch);
    /*putchar(ch);*/
  }

  return 0;
}

Output:

┌─(02:01:16)─(michael@lorry)─(~/tmp/getchar)
└─► gcc -o main main.c; ./main 
Enter a single character 0 >>a
Ch=0x00000061
Enter a single character 1 >>Ch=0x0000000A
Enter a single character 2 >>b
Ch=0x00000062
Enter a single character 3 >>Ch=0x0000000A
Enter a single character 4 >>^C

So program gets two symbols and prints them. And new line symbol is not visible. So in the question user see one strange additional line. Detailed description on different terminal modes and how to make its adjustments can be found here.

Also stty utility can be useful while working with terminal options ("icanon" tells if terminal use canonical mode or not).

And about storing chars as int in getchar() output - see my answer for similar topic.
