Lab Assignments

1. Design and develop a C program that accepts three coefficients (a, b, and c) of a Quadratic
equation (ax2 +bx +c=0) as input and compute all possible roots and print the possible roots for a
given set of coefficients. Also print the message in case of zero valued coefficient/s.
2. An electricity board charges the following rates for the use of electricity: for the first 200 units 80
paisa per unit: for the next 100 units90 paisa per unit: beyond 300 units Rs. 1 per unit. All users
are charged a minimum of Rs. 100 as meter charge. If the total amount is more than400, then an
additional surcharge of 15% of total amount is charged. Design and Develop a program to read the
name of the user, number of units consumed and print out the charges.
3. Design and develop a C program to find the reverse of an integer number NUM and check whether
it is PALINDROME or NOT with suitable messages.
Ex: Num: 1234, Reverse: 4321, Not a Palindrome.
4. Design and develop a C program that reads N integer numbers and arrange them in ascending
order using Bubble Sort.
5. Design and develop a C program that reads N integer numbers and search a key element using
Binary searching Technique.
6. Design and develop a C program that reads two matrices A (m x n) and B(p x q) and Compute
product of matrices A and B. Read matrix A and matrix B in row major order. Print both the input
matrices and resultant matrix appropriately.
7. Design and develop a C program to implement the following operations without using library
functions. Display the results after every operation.
a. Read STRING s1 = “Dayananda”
b. Read STRING s2 = “Sagar”
c. Output the concatenated string STRING s3 = “DayanandaSagar”
8. Design and Develop a C function isprime (num) that accepts an integer argument and returns 1 if
the argument is prime, 0 otherwise. Write a C program that invokes this function to generate prime
numbers between the given range.
9. Design and Develop a C program to create a structure called Employee to maintain record of
details using an array of structures with four fields (Emp_name, Emp_id, Emp_age and Emp_sal).
Assume appropriate data type for each field. Print the Employee details in Tabular Format.
10. Write a C program using pointers to compute the sum, mean and standard deviation of all elements
stored in an array of n real numbers.
