int num;

printf("Enter a number: ");

scanf("%d", &num);

printf("Factorial of %d is %d\n", num, factorial(num));

return 0;

2. Write a C program to reverse a string using pointers.

#include <stdio.h>

#include <string.h>

void reverse(char* str) {

int len = strlen(str);

for (int i = 0; i < len / 2; i++) {

char temp = str[i];

str[i] = str[len - i - 1];

str[len - i - 1] = temp;
}

int main() {

char str[100];

printf("Enter a string: ");

scanf("%s", str);

reverse(str);

printf("Reversed string: %s\n", str);

return 0;

3. Write a C program to read and display a file.
