Lab 2

In this week, we practice implementing in C++ small code with given input and output format.
Students can see some sample exercises and must prepare solution for all exercises in part B.

A. Sample exercises.
Exercise 1. Write a program to print “Hello World!” on the screen.

SOLUTION:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(){
cout << “Hello World! ”;
cout << endl;
return 0;
}

Exercise 2. Write and run a program that performs the following steps:
- Reading a length a from the keyboard.
- Calculating the area of a square with length a by using the formula: S = a2.
- Displaying the area of square S.

SOLUTION:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(){
int a; // Input – Length
int S; // Ouput – Area of Square

cout << "Enter the length a here: ";

cin >> a;

S = a*a;

cout << "The circumference: " << C << endl;

return 0;
}
B. Exercises must to do.

Exercise 3. Read the following C++ program for understanding. Add some suitable declarations to
complete the program and run it.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
float units, price, idnumber, cost, tax, total;
units = 5;
price = 12.5;
idnumber = 12583;
cost = price*units;
cout << " The id number:" << idnumber << "\n The number of units:" << units << "\n The price of 1
unit:" << price << "\n The cost of units:" << cost << endl;
tax = cost*0.06;
total = cost + tax;
cout <<" The tax is:"<< tax <<"\n The total cost is:"<< total << endl;
return 0;
}
Exercise 4. Write a program that asks the user to type two integers A and B and exchange the
value of A and B. The program should display the new value of A and B.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
float A,B,C;
cout<<"Enter A: ";
cin >>A;
cout<<"Enter B: ";
cin >>B;
C=A;
A=B;
B=C;
cout<<"The new number A is: "<<A<<endl;
cout<<"The new number B is: "<<B;
return 0;
}

Exercise 5. Write and run a program that reads the name, age, sex, height and weight of a student
and displays with proper heading for each variable.

cin>>f;
C = (f-32)*5/9;
cout<<"The Celcius temperature is: "<<C<<endl;
return 0;
}

Exercise 8. Write and run a program that reads the coordinate of 2 points, A and B, from the
keyboard and then displays the distance between A and B.
#include <iostream>
#include <math.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
float xA,xB,yA,yB,d;
cout<<"Enter coordinate of A: "<<endl;
cout<<"xA= ";
cin>>xA;
cout<<"yA= ";
cin>>yA;
cout<<"Enter coordinate of B: "<<endl;
cout<<"xB= ";
cin>>xB;
cout<<"yB= ";
cin>>yB;
d=sqrt((xB-xA)*(xB-xA)+(yB-yA)*(yB-yA));
cout<<"The distance is: "<<d<<endl;
return 0;
}
Exercise 9. Given a function:
F(X) = a*X2 + b*X + c
Write and run a program that performs the following steps:
- Reading the value of a, b and c from the keyboard.
- Solving F(X) = 0 ( assume that the equation has two real distinct solutions X1 and X2).
- Displaying X1 and X2.
#include <iostream>
