Practical #1: Getting acquainted with the C program Structure and basic I/O.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the C program structure.

In this lab you will learn about how to write program in C language using Turbo C compiler.

Instructions

Before we begin with our C program do remember the following rules that are applicable to all C

programs:

1. Each instruction in a C program is written as a separate statement. Therefore a complete C program

would comprise of a series of statements.

2. The statements in a C program must appear in the same order in which we wish them to be

executed; unless off course the logic of the problem demands a deliberate „jump‟ or transfer of

control to a statement, which is out of sequence.

3. Blank spaces may be inserted between two words to improve the readability of the statement.

However, no blank spaces are allowed within a variable, constant or keyword.

4. All statements are entered in small case letters.

5. C has no specific rules for the position at which a statement is to be written. That‟s why it is often

called a free form language.

6. Every C statement must end with a “;” acts as a statement terminator.

Instructions for compiling and executing C program:

Assuming that you are using Turbo C or Turbo C++ compiler here are the steps that you need to follow to

compile and execute your first C program….

1. Start the compiler at C>prompt. The compiler (TC.EXE is usually present in C:\TC\BIN directory)

2. Select New from the file menu .

3. Type the program.

4. Save the program using F2 under a proper name (say program1.c).

5. Use Ctrl+F9 to compile and execute the program.

3 | P a g e

6. Use Alt+F5 to view the output.

C program structure:

Every C program consists of following parts:

1. Comments

At the beginning of each program is a comment with a short description of the problem to be solved. A

possible comment for this program might be this:

/* Program program1.c print the number from 4 to 9 and their square*/

The comment begins with /* and ends with */. The symbols /* and */ are called comment delimiters.

2. The program header

After the comment, we can start writing the program. The next two lines of our C program look like

this:

#include<stdio.h>

main()

The #include directive tells the compiler that we will be using parts of the standard function library.

Main(), is called the main program header. It tells the c compiler that we are starting to work on the

main function of this program. Every C program must have a main function since this is where the

computer begins to execute the program.

3. The body or action portion of the program

Just as an English language paragraph is composed of sentences, a C program is made up of C

statements.

4 | P a g e

Structure of a C program:

/*program program1.c print the number from 4 to 9 and their square*/

#include<stdio.h>

main()

{

/*action portion of the program goes here*/

…..

}

Sample Program:

/*display a message on the monitor*/

#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

printf(“Welcome to Computer programming\n”);

}

Output function:

Unlike other languages, C does not contain any instruction to display output on the screen is achieved

using readymade library functions, one such function is printf()

The general form of the printf() function is,

Printf(“<format string>”,<list of variable>);

<format string >can contain,

%f for printing real values

%d for printing integer values

5 | P a g e

%c for printing character values

Summary of the printf():

Int num;

float x;

Num=14;

X=22.6;

Statement Result

Printf(“help”); help

Printf(“%d”,num); 14

Printf(“14”); 14

Printf(14); compilation error

Printf(“%d”); 14

Printf(“%fis the answer”,x); 22.600000 is the answer

Printf(“%d is less then %f”,num,x); 14 is less then 22.600000

Printf(“Stop here”); Stop here

Printf(“go\non\n”); go

on

Receiving input:

The scanf() function is used to receive the input from the keyboard.

The general form of the scanf() function is,

scanf(“<format string>”,<& with list of variable>);

<format string >can contain,

%f for printing real values

6 | P a g e

%d for printing integer values

%c for printing character values

Note that the ampersand (&) before the variable in the scanf() function is a must & is an „address of‟

operator. It gives the location number used by the variable in the memory. When we say &a, we are

telling scanf() at which memory location should it store the value supplied by the user from the

keyboard.

Summary of the scanf():

int p,n;

float r;

Statement

scanf(“%d%d%f”,&p,&n,&r);

Sample Program:

/*Just fun, Author Yash */

void main()

{

int num;

printf(“enter number”);

scanf(“%d”,&num);

printf(“Now I am letting you on a secret…”);

printf(“You have just entered the number %d”,num);

}

Exercises:

1. Print on the Screen :

“Hello”

How are you?

2. Input and output your Rollno., marks, and percentage to an appropriate format.

Practical #2 : Getting acquainted with the various types of data used in C.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the various types of data type in C..

In this lab you will learn about how to do operations with various types of data in C language.

C data Types:

Variable definition

C has a concept of 'data types' which are used to define a variable before its use.

The definition of a variable will assign storage for the variable and define the type of data that will be held

in the location.

So what data types are available?

1. int

int is used to define integer numbers.

{

int Count;

Count = 5;

}

2. float

float is used to define floating point numbers.

{

float Miles;

Miles = 5.6;

}

3. double

double is used to define BIG floating point numbers. It reserves twice the storage for the number. On

PCs this is likely to be 8 bytes.

{

double Atoms;

http://www.space.unibe.ch/comp_doc/c_manual/C/glossary.html#definition

8 | P a g e

Atoms = 2500000;

}

4. char

char defines characters.

{

char Letter;

Letter = 'x';

}

Modifiers

The three data types above have the following modifiers.

short

long

signed

unsigned

The modifiers define the amount of storage allocated to the variable. The amount of storage allocated is not

cast in stone. ANSI has the following rules:

short int <= int <= long int

float <= double <= long double

What this means is that a 'short int' should assign less than or the same amount of storage as an 'int' and the

'int' should be less or the same bytes than a 'long int'. What this means in the real world is:

Type Bytes Bits Range

short int 2 16 -32,768 -> +32,767

unsigned short int 2 16 0 -> +65,535

unsigned int 2 16 0 -> +4,294,967,295

int 2 16 -2,147,483,648 -> +2,147,483,647

long int 4 32 -2,147,483,648 -> +2,147,483,647

signed char 1 8 -128 -> +127

unsigned char 1 8 0 -> +255

float 4 32

double 8 64

long double 12 96

Exercise1.

A c program contains the following statements:

#include<stdio.h>

int i, j;

long ix;

short s;

unsigned u;

float x;

double dx;

char c;

For each of the following groups of variables, write a scanf function that will allow a set of data items to be

read into the computer and assigned to the variables. Assume that all integer will be read in as decimal

quantities.

(a) i ,j, x and dx

(b) i, ix, j, x, and u

(c) i, u and c

(d) c, x, dx and s

variables to be displayed. Assume that all integer will be shown as decimal quantities.

(e) i ,j, x and dx

(f) i, ix, j, x, and u

(g) i, u and c

(h) c, x, dx and s

Practical #3 : Getting acquainted with the simple arithmetic operator in C.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the various arithmetic operators in C..

In this lab you will learn about how to use various arithmetic operators in C language

Arithmetic operator: There are five arithmetic operator in c. They are:

Operator Purpose

+ addition

- subtraction

* multiplication

/ division

% remainder after integer division

Example:

Suppose that a and b are integer variables whose values are 10 and 3.

Expression Value

a+b 13

a-b 7

a*b 30

a/b 3

a%b 1

Hierarchy of Operations Priority Operators Description

1st * / % Multiplication, division,modulas

2nd

+ - Addition, subtraction

3rd

= assignment

Example:

K=2*3/4+4/4+8-2+5/8

K=6/4+4/4+8-2+5/8

K=1+4/4+8-2+5/8

K=1+1+8-2+5/8

K=1+1+8-2+0

11 | P a g e

K=2+8-2+0

K=10-2+0

K=8+0

K=8

Exercise1.

A c program contains the following declarations and initial assignments:

int i=8,j=5;

float x=0.005,y=-0.01;

char c=‟c‟,d=‟d‟;

Determine the value of each of the following expressions. Use the values initially assigned to the variables

for each expression.

(a) (3*i-2*j))+(i%2*d-c)

(b) 2*((i/5)+(4*(j-3))%(i+j-2)

(c) (i-3*j)%(c+2*d)/(x-y)

Exercise2.

A c program contains the following declarations and initial assignments:

int i=8,j=5,k;

float x=0.005,y=-0.01,z;

char a,b,c=‟c‟,d=‟d‟;

Determine the value of each of the following assignment expression expressions. Use the values initially

assigned to the variables for each expression.

(a) k=(i+j)

(b) z=(x+y)

(c) k=(x+y)

(d) z=i/j

(e) i=i%j

Exercise3.

Ram‟s basic salary is input through the keyboard. His dearness allowance is 40% of basic salary, and house

rent allowance is 20% of basic salary. Write a program to calculate his gross salary.

12 | P a g e

Practical #4: Getting acquainted with decision control statement.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the various decision control statements in C.

In this lab you will learn about how to use various decision control statements in C for taking decision.

C has three major decision making instructions.

1. The if statement

2. The if else statement

3. The nested if else statement

The if statement: This is single entry /single exit structure

if (expression)

{

statement1;

next statement;

}

Statement 3;

The expression must be placed in parentheses

In this form statement is evaluated only if expression has non zero value. If the expression has a value of

zero then statement inside if statement are ignored

Sample Program

#include <stdio.h>

int main()

{

int x;

printf("Please enter an integer: ");

scanf("%d", &x);

if (x > 10)

printf(“no is greater than 10\n");

printf(“hello world”);

return 0;

}

The „>‟ is an example of a relational operator. A relational operator takes two operands and

compares them to each other, resulting in a value of true (1) or false (0).

13 | P a g e

The if else statement:

if(expression)

{

Statement 1;

statement2;

}

else

{

Statement 3;

Statement 4;

}

• If expression is true then statement 1,2 will be executed otherwise statement 3,4 will be executed.

Sample Program: #include<stdio.h>

int main()

{

printf(“enter a number”);

scanf(“%d”,&num);

if(num%2= = 0)

printf(“no is even”);

else

printf(“no is odd”);

return 0;

}

The nested If else statement:

It is perfectly all right if we write an entire if-else construct within either the body of the if statement or

body if the else statement.

Sample program of nested if else statement /*demo of nested if else*/

#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

int i;

printf(“enter either 1 or 2”);

scanf(“%d”,i);

if(i= = 1)

printf(“u would go to heaven”);

else

{

if (i==2)

14 | P a g e

printf(“Hell was created with u in mind”);

else

printf(“How about mother earth”);

}

}

Exercise1:

A five digit number is entered through the keyboard. Write a program to obtain the reversed number and to

determine whether the original and reversed numbers are equal or not.

Exercise2: If the ages of Ram, Shayam and Ajay are input through the keyboard, write a program to determine the

youngest of three.

Exercise3:

If cost and selling price of an item is input through the keyboard, write a program to determine whether the

seller has made profit or incurred loss. Also determine how much profit he made or loss he incurred.

Exercise4:

Write a program to check whether a triangle is valid or not, when the three angles of triangle are entered

through the keyboard. A triangle is valid if the sum of all three angles is equal to 180 gegrees.

15 | P a g e

Practical #5: Getting acquainted with repetition structures (loop).

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the various repetition structures (loop) in C.

In this lab you will learn about how to use various repetition structures (loop). in C for iterative type of the

problems.

There are three methods by which we can repeat a part of program. They are:.

1. Using a for statement

2. Using a while statement

3. Using do while statement

1. The for Statement:

Syntax for for loop:

for(initialization;condition;increment/decrement)

Sample program:

/*Print digits 0 to 9*/

#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

int i;

for(i=0;i<10;i++)

{

printf(“%d”,i);

}

}

2. The while statement:

The general form of the while is as shown below:

Initialize loop counter;

While(test loop counter using a condition)

{

do this;

16 | P a g e

and this;

increment loop counter; /*statements*/

}

Sample program:


#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

int number=1;

while ( number <= 10)

{

printf(“number=%d”,number) ;

number=number+1;

}

}

3. The do while statement: The do while loop looks like this:

do

{

this;

and this;

and this;

and this; /*statements*/

}while(condition is true);

Sample program:


#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

int i=20;

do {

i++;

printf(“%d”,i);

} while(i<30);

}

Note:-attempt all the exercises given below by for, while and do-while statements.

17 | P a g e

Exercise 1: Write a program to print out all Armstrong numbers between 1 and 500. If sum of cubes of all digit of the

number is equal to the number itself, then the number is called an Armstrong number. For example,

153=(1*1*1)+(5*5*5)+(3*3*3).

Exercise 2: Write a program to find the factorial value of any number entered through the keyboard.

Exercise 3: Write a program to calculate overtime pay of 10 employees. Overtime is paid at the rate of Rs. 12.00 per

hour for every hour worked above 40 hours. Assume that employees do not work fractional part of an hour.

18 | P a g e

Practical #6: Getting acquainted with switch statement, break statement and continue statement.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the case control structures in C.

The control statement that allows us to make a decision from the number of choices is called a switch, or

more correctly a switch case default, since these three keywords go together to make up the control

statement. They most often appear as follows:

switch (expression)

{

case constant1:

do this;

case constant2:

do this;

default:

do this;

}

Example:

#include<stdio.h>

main()

{

int i = 2;

switch (i)

{

case 1: printf(“I am in case 1 ”);



default: printf(“I am in default ”);

} }

• The output will be

• I am in case 2 I am in case 3 I am in default.

Break statement:

19 | P a g e

We often come across situation where we want to jump out of a loop instantly, without waiting to get back

to the conditional test.

The break statement terminates the execution of the nearest enclosing do, for, switch, or while statement

in which it appears. Control passes to the statement that follows the terminated statement..

Example:

#include<stdio.h>

main()

{

int i = 2;

switch (i)

{

case 1: printf(“I am in case 1\n ”);

break;


break;


break;

default: printf(“I am in default \n”);

} }

• The output will be

• I am in case 2

Continue Statement: In some programming situations we want to take the control to the beginning of the loop, bypassing the

statements inside the loop, which have not yet been executed.

The continue statement passes control to the next iteration of the nearest enclosing do, for, or while

statement in which it appears, bypassing any remaining statements in the do, for, or while statement body.

A continue is usually associated with an if.

Example: #include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

int i,j;

for(i=1;i<=2;i++)

{

for(j=1;j<=2;j++)

{

if(i==j)

continue;

printf(“\n%d%d\n”,i,j);

}

}

20 | P a g e

}

The output would be

1 2

2 1

Exercise 1: Write a menu driven program which has following option:

1. Factorial of a number

2. Prime or not

3. Odd or Even

4. Exit

Make use of switch statement.

The outline of the program is given below:

/*A menu driven program*/

main()

{

int choice;

while(1)

{

printf(“\n1. Factorial”);

printf(“\n2. Prime”);

printf(“\n3. odd/even”);

printf(“\n4. Exit”);

printf(“\n1. your Choice?”);

scanf(%d”,&choice);

switch(choice)

{

case 1:

/*logic for factorial of a number*/

break;

case 2:

/*logic for deciding prime number*/

break;

case 3:

/*logic for even/odd*/

break;

case 4:

exit();

}

}

}

Exercise 2: Write a switch statement that will examine the value of an integer variable called flag and print one of the

following messages, depending on the value assigned to flag.

1. HOT, if flag has a value of 1

2. LUKE WARM, if flag has value of 2

21 | P a g e

3. COLD, if flag has value of 3

4. OUT OF RANGE, if flag has any other range

Practical #7: Getting acquainted with sequential, selection and iterative structures in c.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the nested use of if, if-else, while, for, and do

while statements.

Exercise 1: Write a program to add first seven terms of the following series using any loop:

1/1! + 2/2! + 3/3! +…..

Exercise 2: Write a program to produce a following output:

1

2 3

4 5 6

7 8 9 10

Exercise 3: Write a program to generate all combinations of 1, 2 and 3 using any loop.

Exercise 4: Write a program to print the multiplication table of the number entered by the user. The table shoud get

displayed in the following form:

11*1=11

11*2=22

….

22 | P a g e

Practical #8: Getting acquainted with logical operator used in c

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the logical operators like AND,OR and NOT

used in c.

The logical AND operator (&&) and the logical OR (||) operator evaluate the truth or falsehood of pairs of

expressions. The AND operator evaluates to 1 if and only if both expressions are true. The OR operator

evaluates to 1 if either expression is true. To test whether y is greater than x and less than z, you would

write

(x < y) && (y < z)

The logical negation operator (!) takes only one operand. If the operand is true, the result is false; if the

operand is false, the result is true.

The operands to the logical operators may be integers or floating-point objects. The expression

1 && -5

results in 1 because both operands are nonzero. The same is true of the expression

0.5 && -5

Logical operators (and the comma and conditional operators) are the only operators for which the order of

evaluation of the operands is defined. The compiler must evaluate operands from left to right. Moreover,

the compiler is guaranteed not to evaluate an operand if it is unnecessary. For example, in the expression

if ((a != 0) && (b/a == 6.0))

if a equals 0, the expression (b/a == 6) will not be evaluated. This rule can have unexpected consequences

when one of the expressions contains side effects.

Truth Table for C's Logical Operators

23 | P a g e

In C, true is equivalent to any nonzero value, and false is equivalent to 0. The following table shows the

logical tables for each operator, along with the numerical equivalent. All of the operators return 1 for true

and 0 for false.

Table 5-10 Truth Table for C's Logical Operators

Operand Operator Operand Result

zero && zero 0

nonzero && zero 0

zero && nonzero 0

nonzero && nonzero 1

zero || zero 0

nonzero || zero 1

zero || nonzero 1

nonzero || nonzero 1

not applicable ! zero 1

! nonzero 0

Examples of Expressions Using the Logical Operators

The following table shows a number of examples that use relational and logical operators. The logical

NOT operator has a higher precedence than the others. The AND operator has higher precedence than the

OR operator. Both the logical AND and OR operators have lower precedence than the relational and

arithmetic operators.

Table 5-11 Examples of Expressions Using the Logical Operators

Given the following declarations:

int j = 0, m = 1, n = -1;

float x = 2.5, y = 0.0;

Expression Equivalent Expression Result

j && m (j) && (m) 0

j < m && n < m (j < m) && (n < m) 1

m + n || ! j (m + n) || (!j) 1

x * 5 && 5 || m / n ((x * 5) && 5) || (m / n) 1

j <= 10 && x >= 1 && m ((j <= 10) && (x >= 1)) && m 1

24 | P a g e

Given the following declarations:

int j = 0, m = 1, n = -1;

float x = 2.5, y = 0.0;

Expression Equivalent Expression Result

!x || !n || m+n ((!x) || (!n)) || (m+n) 0

x * y < j + m || n ((x * y) < (j + m)) || n 1

(x > y) + !j || n++ ((x > y) + (!j)) || (n++) 1

(j || m) + (x || ++n) (j || m) + (x || (++n)) 2

Example: Use of logical AND:

/* Method 1: by using nested if else construct */

#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

int m1,m2,m3,m4,m5, per;

printf(“enter marks in five subjects”);

scanf(“%d%d%d%d%d”,&m1,&m,2,&m3,&m4,&m5);

per=(m1+m2+m3+m4+m5)/5;

if(per>=60)

printf(“First Division”);

else

{ if(per>=50)

printf(“Second Division”);

else

{

if(per>=40)

printf(“Third Division”);

else

printf(“Fail”);

}

}

}

/* Method 2: by logical operator */

#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

int m1,m2,m3,m4,m5, per;

printf(“enter marks in five subjects”);

scanf(“%d%d%d%d%d”,&m1,&m,2,&m3,&m4,&m5);

per=(m1+m2+m3+m4+m5)/5;

if(per>=60)

printf(“First Division”);

25 | P a g e

if(per>=50)&&(per<60)

printf(“Second Division”);

if(per>=40)&&(per<50)

printf(“Third Division”);

if(per<40)

printf(“Fail”);

}

Use of logical OR:

#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

int i=4,z=12;

if(i=5||z>50)

printf(“\nDean of Student Affairs”);

else

printf(“\nDOSA”);

}

Use of logical NOT:

#include<stdio.h>

void main()

{

int i=-1,j=1,k,l;

k=!i&&j;

l=!i||j

printf(“%d%d”,k,l);

}

Exercise 1: Any character is entered through the keyboard write a program to determine whether the character entered

is a capital letter, a small letter, a digit or a special symbol.

The following table shows the range of ASCII values for various characters.

Characters ASCII Values

A-Z 65-90

a-z 97-122

0-9 48-57

Special symbols 0-47,58-64,91-96,123-127

Exercise 2:

26 | P a g e

A library charges a fine for every book returned late. For first five days the fine is 50 paise, for 6 to 10 days

fine is one rupee, and above 10 days fine is five rupees. If you return the book after 30 days your

membership will be cancelled. Write a program to accept the number of days the member is late to return

the book and display the fine or the appropriate message.

Exercise 3: The policy followed by a company to process customer orders is given by following rules:

(a) if a customer order quantity is less than or equal to that in stock and his credit is ok, supply his

requirement.

Practical #12: Getting acquainted with functions in c

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the functions and modular programming in c.

A complex program is often easier to solve by dividing it into several smaller parts, each of it can be

solved by itself. This is called structured programming. These parts are sometimes made into functions in

c. main() then uses these functions to solve the original problem.

Functions have a basic structure. Their format is:

return_data_type function name (data type variable name, data type variable name,….)

{

function body

}

This permits type checking by utilizing function prototypes to inform the compiler of the type and number

of parameters a function accepts. When calling a function, this information is used to perform the type and

parameter checking.

ANSI C also requires that the return_ data_type for a function which does not return data must my of type

void. The default return_ data_type is assumed to be an integer unless otherwise specified, but must match

that which the function declaration specifies. A simple function is:

void print_message ()

{

printf(“This is a module called print_message.\n”);

30 | P a g e

}

Note the function name is print_message. No arguments are accepted by the function, this is indicated by

the keyword void in accepted parameter section of function declaration. The return_data_type is void, this

data is not returned by the function. An ANSI C function prototype for print_message() is:

void print_message ();

Function prototypes are listed at the beginning of the source file. Often, they might be placed in a users .h

(header) file.

Functions

Now lets incorporate this function into a program.

/* Program illustrating a simple function call */

#include <stdio.h>

void print_message (void); /* ANSI C function prototype */

void print_message (void) /* the function code */

{

printf(“This is a module called print_message.\n”);

}

int main()

{

print_message();

return 0;

}

Sample program:

/* Simple multiply program using argument passing */

#include <stdio.h>

int calc_result (int, int) // ANSI function prototype

{

31 | P a g e

auto int result;

result = numb1 * numb2; return result; }

int main(void)

{ int digit1 = 10, digit2 = 30, answer = 0;

answer = calc_result(digit1, digit2);

printf(“%d multiplied by %d is %d\n”, digit1, digit2, answer);

return 0;

}

Sample program output

10 multiplied by 30 is 300

Examples of function declarations, definitions, and use:

#include <stdio.h>

}

Practical #13: Getting acquainted with arguments pass by value in function.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the functions where arguments are passing by

value..

Pass by value:

In this type value of actual arguments are passed to the formal arguments and the operation is done on the

formal arguments. Any change made in the formal argument does not effect the actual arguments because

formal arguments are photocopy of actual arguments. Hence when function is called by call or by value

method, it does not affect the actual contents of the actual arguments. Changes made in the formal

arguments are local to the block of the function. Once control return back to the calling function the

changes made vanish. The following example illustrates the use of call by value.

#include<stdio.h>

void change(int,int);

main()

{

int x,y;

clrscr();

printf(\nenter the value of x and y”);

scanf(“%d%d”,&x,&y);

change(x,y)

printf(“\n in main() x=%d y=%d”,x,y);

return 0;

}

void change(int a, int b)

{

int k;

k=a;

a=b;

b=k;

printf(“\n in change() x=%d y=%d”,a,b)

}

Output:

Enter the value of x and y

returns the leading digit in its decimal representation. For

example, the leading digit of 234567 is 2.

Exercise 5: Write a function to evaluate the following series:

Sum=x + x2/2! + x

4/4! + x

6/6! + ……..x

n/n!

36 | P a g e

Practical #14: Getting acquainted with arguments pass by reference in function.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the functions where arguments are passing by

reference or address.

Pass by reference:

In this type instead of passing values, addresses are passed. Function operates on addresses rather than

values. Here formal arguments are pointer to the actual arguments. In this type formal arguments point to

the actual argument. Hence changes made in the arguments are permanent. The following example

illustrates the call by reference.

#include<stdio.h>

void change(int*,int*);

main()

{

int x,y;

clrscr();

printf(\nenter the value of x and y”);

scanf(“%d%d”,&x,&y);

change(&x,&y)

printf(“\n in main() x=%d y=%d”,x,y);

return 0;

}

void change(int *a, int *b)

{

int *k;

*k=*a;

*a=*b;

*b=*k;

printf(“\n in change() x=%d y=%d”,*a,*b)

}

Output:

Enter the value of x and y

in change() x=4 y=5

and print through main().

Practical #15: Getting acquainted with recursion.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the use of recursion.

Recursion is a ability of a function to call itself. In c it is possible for the function to call themselves. A

function is called „recursive‟ if a statement with in the body of a function calls the same function.

Example: factorials

– 5! = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1

– Notice that

5! = 5 * 4!

4! = 4 * 3! ...

– Can compute factorials recursively

– Solve base case (1! = 0! = 1) then plug in

2! = 2 * 1! = 2 * 1 = 2;

3! = 3 * 2! = 3 * 2 = 6;

/*Program for calculating the factorial of a number by using recursive function*/

#include<stdio.h>

#include<conio.h>

int rec (int);

void main()

{

int a, fact;

printf(“enter any no”);

scanf(“%d”,&a);

fact=rec(a);

printf(“%d”, fact);

}

rec(int x)

{

int f;

if(x==1)

39 | P a g e

return(1);

else

f=x*rec(x-1);

return(f);

}

Recursion Vs. Iteration:

Repetition

– Iteration: explicit loop

– Recursion: repeated function calls

Termination

– Iteration: loop condition fails

– Recursion: base case recognized

Balance

– Choice between performance (iteration) and good software engineering (recursion)

Exercise No1.

Write a recursive function to obtain the first 25 numbers of a Fibonacci series. In a Fibonacci sequence the

sum of two successive terms gives the third term. Following are the first few terms of the Fibonacci

sequence:

1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 ….

Exercise No2.

Write a recursive function to obtain the running sum of first 25 natural numbers.

Exercise No3

X=1/1!+2/2!+3/3!+……n/n!.

Exercise No5

A five digit positive integer is entered through the keyboard, write a recursive function to calculate the sum

of digits of 5 digit number.

Practical #16: Getting acquainted with Arrays.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the manipulation of arrays..

An array is linear data structure, which is used to store similar type of data items.

Array Declaration: To declare an array, you need:

type (what sort of values will it hold?)

size (how many values will it hold?)

name

int myArray[20];

Array Initialization: Arrays can be initialized by a list of constant values

double vector[3] = {0.0, 1.0, 2.0};

double matrix[3][2] = { {0.0, 1.0}, {1.0, 2.0}, {2.0, 3.0} };

The number of elements in an array can be inferred by the compiler from the number of initializing

constants

int myvector[] = {0,1,2,3,4,5,6}; //a 7-element array

Static arrays are initialized when the program is loaded, and are initialized to zero by default.

Automatic arrays are initialized when they are defined, and do not have a default initial value

(unless they are arrays of objects).

Arrays may be initialized when they are declared:

int myArray[5] = {3,5,9,32,8};

float floatArray[10] = {6,30,42,58,0, 1,3,4,2,0}; Or you can initialize them in a loop:

int myArray[size];

for (i=0;i<size;i++)

{

41 | P a g e

myArray[i]=0;

}

Arrays and I/O:

• scanf and printf can't handle arrays themselves

• So we write I/O for arrays explicitly, usually using a loop:

/* read in values for an array */

for (i=0;i<arraySize;i++)

{

scanf("%f",&floatArray[i]);

}

/* Print out all the elements of an array, one to a line */


{

printf("%f\n",floatArray[i]);

}

/* Print out all the elements of an array */


{

printf("number %d is %f\n",i,floatArray[i]);

}

Sample Ptrogram:

#include<stdio.h>

main()

{

int x[5]={10,20,30};

printf("\n%d", x[0]);





}

Output:

10

20

42 | P a g e

Two Dimensional Arrays:

Two dimensional array is also called matrix.

Here is sample program that stores rooll no. and marks obtained by a student side by side in a

matrix.

Main()

{

int stud[4][2];

int I,j;

for(i=0;i<=3;i++)

{

printf(“\n enter roll no and marke”);

scanf(“%d%d”,&stud[i][0],&stud[i][1]);

}

for(i=0;i<=3;i++)

{

printf(“%d%d”,stud[i][0],stud[i][1]);

}

Initialization of two dimensional Array:

43 | P a g e

Int stud[4][2]={

{1234,45},

{1212,33},

{1413,69},

{1312,68}

};

or

int stud[4][2]={1234,45,1212,33,1413,69,

1312,68};

or

Int arr[][3]={12,34,56,56,56,57};

this would never work

Int arr[2][]={12,34,56,56,56,57};

Int arr[][]={12,34,56,56,56,57};

Passing array elements to a function:

Array element can be passed to a function by calling the function by value, or by reference.

/*demonstration of call by value*/

Main()

{

int i;

int marks[]={55,65,75,56,78,79,90};

for(i=0;i<=6;i++)

display(marks[i]);

}

Display (int m)

{

printf(“%d”,m);

}

/*Demostration of call by reference*/

Main()

{

int i;

int marks[]={55,65,75,56,78,79,90};

for(i=0;i<=6;i++)

disp(&marks[i]);

}

Disp(int *m)

{

printf(“%d”,*m);

44 | P a g e

}

Here we are passing address of individual array elements to the function.

Passing an entire array to a function:

Main()

{

int num[]={23,34,34,56,45,67};

display(&num[0],6);

}

Display(int *j,intn)

{

int I;

for(i=0;i<=n-1;i++)

{

printf(“\nelement=%d”,*j);

j++;

}

}

Pointers and strings:

51 | P a g e

• char str[]=“Hello”;

• char *p=“Hello”;

• Hello is stored as a string

• Stored in any memory location and assign the address of the string in a character pointer

The difference of these two is that we can not assign a string to another, whereas, we can assign a

char pointer to another char pointer

main()

{

char str1[]=“hello”;

char str2[10];

char *s=“good morning”;

char *q;

str2=str1; /*error*/

q=s; /*works*/

}

Once a string has been defined it can not be initialized to another set of characters. Unlike strings, such an

operation is perfectly valid with char pointer.

main()

{

char str1[]=“hello”;

char *p=“hello”;

str1=“bye”; /*error*/

p=“bye”; /*works*/

}

Standard Library string functions:

Practical #21: Getting acquainted with structures.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the structures and unions, which is collection of

various types of data elements called members.

What is structure in C?

A structure is a group of items in which each item is identified by its own identifier, each of which is

known as the member of structure.

struct{

char first[10];

char midinit;

char last[20];

} sname,ename;

ename, sname are structure variables

or Struct nametype{

char first[10];

char midinit;

char last[20];

};

struct nametype sname, ename;

We can assign a tag to the structure and declare the variables by means of the tag

Declaring structure using typedef: • Often, typedef is used in combination with struct to declare a synonym (or an alias) for a structure

typedef struct /* Define a structure */

{

char first[10];

char midinit;

char last[20];

} NAMETYPE ; /* The "alias" */

NAMETYPE sname,ename /* Create a struct variable */

55 | P a g e

Examples: struct card {

int pips;

char suit;

} ;

struct card c1, c2;

Variables may also be declared in the structure definition:

struct card {

int pips;

char suit;

} c1, c2 ;

Initialisation of structures: (similar to arrays

card c3 = {13,‟h‟}; /* the king of hearts */

Assignment of structures:

c2 = c1;

assigns to each member of c2 the value

of the corresponding member of c1.

Arrays of structures:

card deck[52];

declares an array (of size 52) of variables

of type “card”; the name of the array is “deck”.

Accessing members of a structure:

c1.pips = 3;

c1.suit = „s‟;

members of the structure are accessed

with the operator “.” (dot),

Inputting and outputting: #include<stdio.h>

int main()

{

struct student

{

int rollno;

char name[10];

int marks;

}stud1,stud2;

printf("enter data for first student");

scanf("%d %s %d",&stud1.rollno,&stud1.name,&stud1.marks);

56 | P a g e

printf("\n %d %s %d",stud1.rollno,stud1.name,stud1.marks);

printf("enter data for second student");

scanf("%d %s %d",&stud2.rollno,&stud2.name,&stud2.marks);

printf("\n %d %s %d",stud2.rollno,stud2.name,stud2.marks);

}

Array of structure i/o: #include<stdio.h>

int main()

{

struct student

{

int rollno;

char name[10];

int marks;

}stud[5];

int i;

for(i=0;i<=4;i++)

{

printf("enter data for student %d”,i+1");

scanf("%d %s %d",&stud[i].rollno,&stud[i].name,&stud[i].marks);

}

for(i=0;i<=4;i++)

{

printf("data for student %d“,i+1);

printf("\n %d %s %d",stud[i].rollno,stud[i].name,stud[i].marks);

}

}

Structure as a member of any other structure i/o: #include<stdio.h>

int main()

{

struct marks

{

int phy;

int chem;

int maths;

};

57 | P a g e

struct student

{

int rollno;

char name[10];

struct marks m;

}stud[3];

int i,sum=0,sum1=0,sum2=0;

for(i=0;i<=2;i++)

{

printf("enter data for student");

scanf("%d %s",&stud[i].rollno,stud[i].name);

printf("marks in physics, chemistry and maths");

scanf("%d %d %d",&stud[i].m.phy,&stud[i].m.chem,&stud[i].m.maths);

}

for(i=0;i<=2;i++)

{

printf("\n %d %s %d %d %d” ,stud[i].rollno,stud[i].name,stud[i].m.phy,stud[i].m.chem,stud[i].m.maths);

}

for(i=0;i<=2;i++)

{

sum=sum+stud[i].m.phy;

sum1=sum1+stud[i].m.phy;

sum2=sum2+stud[i].m.phy;

}

printf("\n sum of marks of physics : %d",sum);

printf("\n sum of marks of chemistry : %d",sum1);

printf("\n sum of marks of maths : %d",sum2);

}

Practical #22: Getting acquainted with structures.

Pointers to structuresStructures may contain large amounts of data

Use pointers to pass structures to functions

instead of moving them in memory

If a function should modify the contents of a structure:

Use pointers to pass structures to functions

instead of passing the structure by value.

PointersPointers to structuresto structures

struct student *p=&tmp;

(*p).grade;

Accessing a member with a dereferenced pointer use brackets,

because .. has higher priority than **

p->grade;

This is so important that an equivalent syntax is provided

(saving two keystrokes)

e = update1(e);

.....

employee_data update1(employee_data e)

{

....

printf (“Input the department number: ”);

scanf(“%d”, &n);

/* now access member of struct-within-struct... */

e.department.dept_no = n;

.....

return e;

}

Updating structures in functions: method 1

Within calling routine, e.g. function main()

Send structure e down to the function, modify it, and return the

modified structure for use in the calling routine:

This involves a lot of copying of structure members down to the function and back again. There’s a better way...

59 | P a g e

update2(&e);

void update2(employee_data *p)

{

....

printf(“Input the department number: ”);

scanf(“%d”, &n);

p->department.dept_no = n;

.....

}

Updating structures in functions: method 2

Within calling routine (e.g.

function main() ), to pass

address to update function

Use -> instead of . to access

structure member, because p

is a pointer to the structure

Passing a pointer to a structure is more efficient:

Self Referential Structures:

It is sometimes desirable to include within a structure one member that is a pointer to the parent structure

type. In general terms, this can be expressed as

struct tag

{

member 1;

member 2;

…….

struct tag *name;

};

Where name refers to the name of a pointer variable. Thus the structure of type tag will contain a member

that points another structure of type tag. Such structure are known as self referential structures.

Struct list_element

{

char item[40];

struct list_element *next;

};

This is a structure of type list element. The structure contains two members: a 40 element character array,

called item, and pointer to a structure of the same type called next. Therefore this is a self referential

structure.

Exercise No1: Create a structure to specify data on students given below:

60 | P a g e

Roll number, Name, Department, Course, Year of joining

Assume that there are not more than 250 students in the college.

(a) Write a function to print names of all students who joined in a particular year.

(b) Write a function to print data of a student whose roll number is given.

Exercise No2: Create a structure to specify data of customers in a bank. The data to be stored is : Account number,

Balance in account. Assume maximum of 200 customers in the bank..

(a) Write a function to print the account number and name of each customer with balance below Rs.

100.

(b) If a customer requests for withdrawal or deposit, it is given in the form:

Account number, amount, code(1 for deposit, 0 for withdrawal)

Write a program to give a message, “ the balance is insufficient for the specified withdrawal”.

Exercise No3: Create a structure named employee that hold information like empcode, name and date of joining. Write a

program to create an array of structures and enter some data into it. Then ask the user to enter current date.

Display the name of those employee whose tenure is 3 or more than 3 years according to the current date.

Exercise No4: Write a menu driven program that depicts the working of a library. The menu option would be:

1. Add book information

2. Display book information

3. List all book of given author

4. List the title of specified book

5. List the count of book in the library

6. list the books in the order of accession number

7. exit

Create a structure called library to hold accession number, title of the book, author name, price of the book

and flag indicating whether book is issued or not.

Practical #23: Getting acquainted with File (data file) handling.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the data file which include creation, opening

modifying and closing of file.

File Operations: a. Creation of a new file

b. Opening an existing

c. Reading from a file

d. Writing to a file

e. Moving to a specific location in a file

f. Closing a file

Read a file, display its contents on the screen: /*display contents of a file on screen */

#include<stdio.h>

Void main()

{

FILE *fp;

Char ch;

Fp=fopen(“pr1.c”,”r”);

While(1)

{

Ch=fgetc(fp);

If(ch==EOF)

Break;

Printf(“%c”,ch);

}

Fclose(fp);

}

Opening a file: fopen() performs three important tasks then:

a. It searches on the disk the file to be opened.

b. Then it loads the file from the disk into a place in memory called buffer.

c. It sets up character pointer that points to the first character of the buffer.

d.

Reading from file: To read files contents from memory, there existing a function called fgetc()

Ch=fgetc(fp);

Fgetc() do:

• reads the character from the current pointer position

62 | P a g e

• Advances the pointer position so it points to the next character.

• Return the character that it reads, which we collected in the variable ch.

We have used fgetc() inside indefinite while loop, we use break statement to come out of it as we reaches

end of the file at the end of the file special character EOF is inserted beyond the last character of the file.

Closing a file: when we have finished reading from the file,we need to close it. This is done using the function fclose()

through the statement

fclose(fp);

When we close the file using fclose():

a. The characters in the buffer would be written to the file on the disk.

b. At the end of the file a character with ASCII value 26 (EOF) would get written

c. The buffer would be eliminated from memory

Counting characters, tabs, spaces #include<stdio.h>

Void main()

{

FILE *fp;

Char ch;

Int nol=0,not=0,nob=0,noc=0;

Fp=fopen(“pr.c”,”r”);

While(1)

{

Ch=fgetc(fp);

If(ch==EOF)

Break;

Noc++;

If(ch==„ „)

Nob++;

If(ch==„\n‟)

Nol++;

If(ch==„\t‟)

Not++;

}

Fclose(fp);

Printf(“\n number of characters=%d”,noc);

Printf(“\n number of blanks=%d”,nob);

Printf(“\n number of tabs=%d”,not);

Printf(“\n number of lines=%d”,nol);

}

A file copy program #include<stdio.h>

Void main()

{

FILE *fp *ft;

63 | P a g e

Char ch;

Fp=fopen(“pr.c”,”r”);

If(fs==NULL)

{

puts(“cannot open source file”);

exit(1);

}

Ft=fopen(“pr1.c”,”w”);

If(ft==NULL)

{

puts(“cannot open target file”);

fclose(fs);

Exit(2);

}

While(1)

{

Ch=fgetc(fs);

If(ch==EOF)

Break;

Else

Fputc(ch,ft);

}

Fclose(fs);

Fclose(ft);

}

Writing into a file: Fputc() function is similar to putchar(),

However putch() always write to the VDU but fputc() write to the file.

File opening modes:

Mode Function

“r” Reading from the file

“w” Writing to the file

“a” Adding new content at the end of the file

“r+” Reading existing contents, writing new contents, modifying

existing contents of the file.

64 | P a g e

“w+” Writing new contents, reading them back and modifying

existing contents of the file.

“a+” Reading existing contents, appending new contents to the end

of file. Cannot modify existing contents.

String (line) I/O in files: /*receives strings from keyboard and write them to file*/

#include<stdio.h>

Void main()

{

FILE *fp;

Char s[80];

Fp=fopen(“poem.txt”,”w”);

If(fp==NULL)

{

puts(“cannot open file”);

exit(1);

}

Printf(“\nenter a few line of text”);

While(strlen(get(s))>0)

{

fputs(s,fp);

fputs(“\n”,fp);

}

Fclose(fp);

}

Record I/O in files:

/*writes records to a file using structures*/

#include<stdio.h>

Void main()

{

FILE *fp;

Char another=„Y‟;

Struct emp

{

char name[40];

int age;

Few important functions: rewind(): this palces the pointer to the beginning of file, irrespective of where it is present right now.

fseek():this moves the pointer from one record to another

fseek(fp,-resize,SEEK_CUR);

resize moves the pointer back by resize bytes from the current position

SEEK_CUR is macro defined in stdio.h, moves the pointer with reference to its current position.

SEE_END moves the pointer from the end of the file.

Ftell(): if we wish to know where pointer is positioned right now, we can use the function ftell()

position=ftell(fp);

Exercise No1: Write a program to read a file and display its contents along with line numbers before each line.

Exercise No2: Write a program to find the size of a text file with/without traversing it character by character.

Exercise No3: Write a program to append the contents of one file at the end of other file.

Exercise No4: Suppose file contains student‟s records with each record containing name and age of a student. Write a

program to read these records and display them in sorted order by name.

Exercise No5: Write a program to copy one file to another file. While doing so replace all lower case characters to their

equivalent uppercase characters.

Exercise No6: Write a program that merges lines alternately from two files and write the result to new file. If one file has

less number of lines then the other, the remaining lines from the larger file should be simply copied into

the target file.

Practical #24: Getting acquainted with command line argument.

Objective

The goal of this lab is to help you become acquainted with the command line argument, argc and argv.

What is command line argument? • It is a parameter supplied to a program when the program is invoked.

• This parameter may represent a filename the program should process.

• If we want to execute a program to copy the contents of a file named X_FILE to another one named

Y_FILE then we may use a command line like

C>PROGRAM X_FILE Y_FILE

Where PROGRAM is the file name where the executable code of the program is stored. This eliminate the

need for the program to request the user to enter the file names during execution

• Main(). These parentheses may contain special arguments that allow parameters to be passed to

main from the operating system.

• Most version of C permits two such arguments, which are traditionally called argc and argv,

respectively.

• argc must be an integer variable

• argv is an array of pointers to characters i.e. an array of strings.

• Each string in this array will represent a parameter that is passed to main.

• The value of argc will indicate the number of parameters passed.

How argc and argv defined in main() void main(int argc, char *argv[])

{

……

……

}

Example: #include<stdio.h>

void main(int argc, char *argv[])

{

int count;

printf(“argc=%d\n”,argc);

for(count=0;count<argc;++count)

printf(“argv[%d]=%s\n”,count,argv[count]);

}

• This program allows an unspecified number of parameters to be entered from the command line.

• When the program is executed, the current value of argc and the elements of argv will be displayed

as separate line of output.

70 | P a g e

Suppose for example, that the program name is sample, and the command line initiating the program

execution is

sample red white blue

Then the program will be executed, resulting in the following output.

argc=4

argv[0]= sample.exe

argv[1]= red

argv[2]= white

argv[3]= blue

Using argc and argv: To execute the file copy programs that we saw earlier, we are required to first type the program, compile it

and then execute it. This program can be improved in two ways;

(a) There should be no need to compile the program every time to use the file copy utility. It means the

file must be executable at command prompt (A>,C>,$)

(b) Instead of the program prompting us to enter the source and target filenames, we must be able to

supply them at command prompt, in the form:

filecopy pr1.c pr2.c

Where pr1.c is the source file name and pr2.c is the target filename.

Passing source filename and target filename to the function main() #include “stdio.h”

main(int argc, char *argv[])

{

FILE *fs,*ft;

char ch;

if(arg!=3)

{

puts(“improper no of arguments”);

exit();

}

fs=fopen(argv[1],”r”);

if(fs==NULL)

{

puts(“cannot open the source file”);

exit();

}

ft=fopen(argv[2],”w”);

if(ft==NULL)

{

puts(“cannot open the target file”);

fclose(fs);

exit();

}

while(1)

{

71 | P a g e

ch=fgetc(fs);

if(ch==EOF)

break;

else

fputc(ch,ft);

}

fclose(fs);

fclose(ft);

}

ExerciseNo.1: Write a program using command line arguments to search for a word in a file and replace it with the

specified word. The usage of the program is shown below,

c>change<old word><new word><filename>

ExerciseNo.2: Write a program that can be used at command prompt as a calculating utility. The usage of program is

shown below,

c> calc<switch><n><m>

where n and m are two integer operands, switch can be any one of the arithmetic or comparison operators.

If arithmetic operator is supplied, the output should be the result of the operation. If comparison operator is

supplied then the output should be true or false.
