C Program to Compute Quotient and Remainder

C Program to Compute Quotient and Remainder

This program evaluates the quotient and remainder when an integer is divided by another integer.
 
Remainder and quotient calculation
To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of following C programming topics:

Program to Compute Quotient and Remainder

#include <stdio.h>
int main(){

    int dividend, divisor, quotient, remainder;

    printf("Enter dividend: ");
    scanf("%d", &dividend);

    printf("Enter divisor: ");
    scanf("%d", &divisor);

    // Computes quotient
    quotient = dividend / divisor;

    // Computes remainder
    remainder = dividend % divisor;

    printf("Quotient = %d\n", quotient);
    printf("Remainder = %d", remainder);

    return 0;
}
Output
Enter dividend: 25
Enter divisor: 4
Quotient = 6
Remainder = 1
In this program, user is asked to enter two integers (dividend and divisor) which is stored in variable dividend and divisor respectively.
Then the quotient is evaluated using division / operator and stored in variable quotient.
Similarly, the remainder is evaluated using modulus % operator and stored in remainder variable.
Finally, the quotient and remainder are displayed using printf() function.

C Program to Find all Roots of a Quadratic Equation

C Program to Find all Roots of a Quadratic Equation This program accepts coefficients of a quadratic equation from the user and displays the roots (both real and complex roots depending upon the discriminant ).   To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of following C programming topics: C Programming Operators C if...else Statement The standard form of a quadratic equation is: ax 2 + bx + c = 0, where a, b and c are real numbers and a ≠ 0 The term b 2 -4ac is known as the discriminant of a quadratic equation. The discriminant tells the nature of the roots. If discriminant is greater than 0, the roots are real and different. If discriminant is equal to 0, the roots are real and equal. If discriminant is less than 0, the roots are complex and different. Example: Program to Find Roots of a Quadratic Equation #include <stdio.h> #include <math.h> int main () ...

C Program to Check Leap Year

C Program to Check Leap Year This program checks whether an year (integer) entered by the user is a leap year or not.   To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of following C programming topics: C Programming Operators C if...else Statement A leap year is exactly divisible by 4 except for century years (years ending with 00). The century year is a leap year only if it is perfectly divisible by 400. Example: Program to Check Leap Year #include <stdio.h> int main () { int year ; printf ( "Enter a year: " ); scanf ( "%d" ,& year ); if ( year % 4 == 0 ) { if ( year % 100 == 0 ) { // year is divisible by 400, hence the year is a leap year if ( year % 400 == 0 ) printf ( "%d is a leap year." , year ); else printf ( "%d i...

C Program to Find ASCII Value of a Character

C Program to Find ASCII Value of a Character In C programming, a character variable holds ASCII value (an integer number between 0 an 127) rather than character itself. You will learn how to find ASCII value of a character in this program.   To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of following C programming topics: C Programming Data Types C Programming Constants and Variables C Input Output (I/O) A character variable holds ASCII value (an integer number between 0 and 127) rather than that character itself in C programming. That value is known as ASCII value. For example , ASCII value of 'A' is 65. What this means is that, if you assign 'A' to a character variable, 65 is stored in that variable rather than 'A' itself. Program to Print ASCII Value #include <stdio.h> int main () { char c ; printf ( "Enter a character: " ); // Re...
