Practical 1: A C Program to Add Two Numbers

 Practical 1: A C Program to Add Two Numbers
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{ num2 is just the variable.
// Step 1: Declare your variables &num2 means "the address of
float num1, num2, sum; num2".
// Step 2: Ask the user for input
printf("Enter first number: ");
scanf("%f", &num1);
printf("Enter second number: "); Find the product
scanf("%f", &num2); and average of
// Step 3: Calculate sum
the two numbers
sum = num1 + num2;
// Step 4: Display the result
printf("The sum of %f and %f is %3.3f \n", num1, num2,
sum);
return 0;
}
Practical 2: A C Program to assign male students to ADAM
HALL and Female students to EVE hall
display the name of the respective students
 #include <stdio.h>
int main() {
 char name[50]; 0 49
 char gender;
 // Ask for student name
 printf("Enter student name: (no spaces): ");
 scanf("%s", name);
// Ask for student gender
 printf("Enter gender (M for Male / F for Female): ");
 scanf(" %c", &gender);
 // Assign to hall based on gender
 if (gender == 'M' || gender == 'm’)
 {
 printf("Student Name: %s\n", name);
 printf("Assigned Hall: ADAM HALL\n");
 }
else if (gender == 'F' || gender == 'f') {
 printf("Student Name: %s\n", name);
 printf("Assigned Hall: EVE HALL\n");
 } else {
 printf("Invalid gender entered.\n");
 }
 return 0;
}
 #include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
int main() { sizeof(name) tells fgets the maximum
 char name[50]; number of characters it can safely read — in
 char gender; this case, 50 (the size of the array).
 // Ask for student name stdin means standard input — in this case,
 printf("Enter student name: "); the keyboard
 fgets(name, sizeof(name), stdin);
// Ask for student gender
 printf("Enter gender (M for Male / F for Female): ");
 scanf(" %c", &gender);
 // Assign to hall based on gender
 if (gender == 'M' || gender == 'm') {
 printf("Student Name: %s\n", name);
 printf("Assigned Hall: ADAM HALL\n");
 } else if (gender == 'F' || gender == 'f') {
 printf("Student Name: %s\n", name);
 printf("Assigned Hall: EVE HALL\n");
 } else {
 printf("Invalid gender entered.\n");
 }
 return 0;
}
Practical 3: Write a C program to calculate the real roots
(not complex roots) of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c
 Practical 3:
 Write a C program to calculate the real roots (not
complex roots) of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c
which is given as


 In addition to the result:

 display “Roots are real and distinct”, if (discriminant
> 0)
 display “Roots are real and equal”, if (discriminant =
0)
 Else display “No real roots.”
 Practical 3:
#include <stdio.h> else if (discriminant == 0) {
#include <math.h> root1 = -b / (2 * a);
int main() printf("Roots are real and equal:\n");
{ printf("Root = %.2 f\n", root1);
int a, b, c; }
float discriminant, root1, root2; else {
// Ask the user for coefficients printf("No real roots.\n");
printf("Enter coefficients a, b, and c: "); }
scanf("%d %d %d", &a, &b, &c); return 0;
// Calculate the discriminant }
discriminant = b * b - 4 * a * c;
if (discriminant > 0) {
root1 = (-b + sqrt(discriminant)) / (2 * a);
root2 = (-b - sqrt(discriminant)) / (2 * a);
printf("Roots are real and distinct:\n");
printf("Root 1 = %.2f \n", root1);
printf("Root 2 = %.2f \n", root2);
}
 Some Commonly Used Library Functions
S/N FUNCTION PURPOSE
1. abs (i) Return the absolute value of variable i
2. cos (d) Return the cosine of variable d
3. log (d) Return the natural logarithm of variable d
4. pow (d1,d2) Return dl raised to the d2 power.
5. sin (d) Return the sine of variable d.
6. sqrt (d) Return the square root of variable d

7. Tan (d) Return the tangent of variable d.

8. tolower (c) Convert content of variable “c” to lowercase.
9. toupper(c) Convert content of variable “c” to uppercase.
Practical 4: A simple C program that lists all the EVEN and
ODD numbers between 1 and 100:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
Practical 4:
int i;
// Print Even numbers
printf("Even numbers between 1 and 100:\n");
for (i = 1; i <= 100; i++) {
if (i % 2 == 0) {
printf("%d ", i);
}
}
printf("\n\n"); // Add a blank line between the two lists
// Print Odd numbers
printf("Odd numbers between 1 and 100:\n");
for (i = 1; i <= 100; i++) {
if (i % 2 != 0) {
printf("%d ", i);
}
}
printf("\n");
return 0;
}
 Class Activity
Using if...else control structure , write a C program
that works as a simple calculator, your calculator
should be able to perform simple addition,
subtraction, multiplication and division operation,
your results must be in two decimal places.
#include <stdio.h>
int main ()
{
float value1, value2, ans;
char operator;
printf("Which operation do you want to perform ?\n" );
scanf("%c", &operator);
if( operator == '+')
{
printf("supply your first value\n" );
scanf("%f", &value1);
printf("supply your second value\n" );
scanf("%f", &value2);
ans = value1 + value2;
printf(" the result of your operation is %.2f \n", ans );
}
else
if (operator == '-')
{

printf("supply your first value\n" );

scanf("%f", &value1);
printf("supply your second value\n" );
scanf("%f", &value2);
ans = value1 - value2;
printf(" the result of your operation is %.2f \n", ans );
}
else
if (operator == '*')
{
printf("supply your first value\n" );
scanf("%f", &value1);
printf("supply your second value\n" );
scanf("%f", &value2);
ans = value1 * value2;
printf(" the result of your operation is %.2f \n", ans );
}
else
{
printf("supply your first value\n" );
scanf("%f", &value1);
printf("supply your second value\n" );
scanf("%f", &value2);
ans = value1 / value2;
printf(" the result of your operation is %.2f \n", ans );
}
return 0;
}
