SAMPLE C PROGRAMS AND ANSWERS

1. A program that will either calculate area of a rectangle, area of a square or circle,
depending on the user’s choice.
Solution
The problem is determination of area of rectangular, square and circle
For a rectangular length and width will be required
For a square length or width may be required
For a circle radius will be required
i. By using if

#include<stdio.h>
int main (void)
{
int choice, l, w, r, area; /* Here variables are declared, you can choose any name*/
printf(“ \t A PROGRAM FOR CALCULATING AREA \n\n\n”);
printf(“Please Enter your selection eg 2 \n\n”);
printf(“ 1:Rectangular\n 2:Square\n 3:Circle\n”);
scanf(“%d”,&choice);
system(“cls”); /* This is not necessary it just clear screen, you can omit it*/
if(choice==1)
{
printf(“Rectangular\n\n Enter the Length\n”);
scanf(“%d”,&l);
printf(“Enter the width \n”);
scanf(“%d”,&w);
area=l*w;
printf(“The area is %d\n”,area);
}

if(choice==2)
{
printf(“Square\n\n Enter the Length or width\n”);
scanf(“%d”,&w);
area=w*w;
printf(“The area is %d\n”,area);
}

if(choice==3)
{

printf(“Circle\n\n Enter the radius\n”);

scanf(“%d”,&r);
area=3.14*r*r;
printf(“The area is%d\n”,area);
}
return 0;
}

ii. By using if—else--if

#include<stdio.h>
int main (void)
{
int choice, l, w, r, area; /* Here variables are declared, you can choose any name*/
printf(“ \t A PROGRAM FOR CALCULATING AREA \n\n\n”);

scanf(“%d”,&choice);
system(“cls”); /* This is not necessary it just clear screen, you can omit it*/
if(choice==1)
{
printf(“Rectangular\n\n Enter the Length\n”);
scanf(“%d”,&l);
printf(“Enter the width %d\n”);
scanf(“%d”,&w);
area=l*w;

printf(“Circle\n Enter the radius\n”);

scanf(“%d”,&r);
area=3.14*r*r;
printf(“The area is%d\n”,area);
}

else
{
printf(“\n INVALID SELECTION\n TRY AGAIN LATER\n”);
}
return 0;
}
}

iii. By using SWITCH CASE

#include<stdio.h>
int main (void)
{
int choice, l, w, r, area; /* Here variables are declared, you can choose any name*/
printf(“ \t A PROGRAM FOR CALCULATING AREA \n\n\n”);
printf(“Please Enter your selection eg 2 \n\n”);
printf(“ 1:Rectangular\n 2:Square\n 3:Circle\n”);
scanf(“%d”,&choice);
system(“cls”); /* This is not necessary it just clear screen, you can omit it*/
switch(choice)
{
case 1:

printf(“The area is %d\n”,area);
break;

case 2:
printf(“Square\n\n Enter the Length or width\n”);

printf(“The area is%d\n”,area);
break;

default:

break;
}
return 0;
}

Types of Program Errors

Program errors are also referred to as program bugs.

A C program may have one or more of four types of errors:
i.Syntax errors (Compiler errors or Compile-time errors)
ii.Linker Errors
iii.Runtime errors
