Scanf does not read leading 0s if digit after leading 0s are 8 or 9

I have a very strange question which stems from a bug of a C++11 program I have been writing.

See the following code:

long long a[1000];
int main(int argc, char * argv[]) {
    
    for(long long i = 0; i < 300; ++i) {
        scanf("%lli", &a[i]);
        std::cout << a[i] << std::endl;
    }
    
    return 0;
}

Trying the inputs 1, 2 etc we get outputs 1\n, 2\n, etc. like expected. This also works for inputs like 001 where we get 1\n, 0004 where we get 4\n.

However when the digit after the leading zeros is an 8 or 9, the scanf() reads the leading zeroes first, then reads the digits after.

For example:

Input: 0009, output: 000\n9\n.

Input: 08, output 0\n8\n.

Input: 00914, output 00\n914\n.

I've done some testing and for these cases it seems the scanf() reads the leading zeros first, and the remaining digits are left in the buffer, which are picked up on the second run of the loop.

Can someone hint at what is going on?

I am using XCode 11.3.7 and compiling with Clang C++11. (I haven't messed with the project settings)

Thank you in advance!!!
