C Program to Demonstrate the Working of Keyword long

C Program to Demonstrate the Working of Keyword long

The long is a size modifier, indicated by keyword long, that may increase the size of a variable during declaration. This program will demonstrate the working of long keyword.
 
long keyword in C programming
To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of following C programming topics:

Example: Program to Demonstrate the Working of long

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int a;
    long b;
    long long c;

    double e;
    long double f;


    printf("Size of int = %ld bytes \n", sizeof(a));
    printf("Size of long = %ld bytes\n", sizeof(b));
    printf("Size of long long = %ld bytes\n", sizeof(c));

    printf("Size of double = %ld bytes\n", sizeof(e));
    printf("Size of long double = %ld bytes\n", sizeof(f));

    return 0;
}
Output
Size of int = 4 bytes 
Size of long = 8 bytes
Size of long long = 8 bytes
Size of double = 8 bytes
Size of long double = 16 bytes
In this program, the sizeof operator is used to find the size of int, long, long long, double and long double.
The long keyword cannot be used with float and char type variables.

C Program to Check Whether a Number is Prime or Not

C Program to Check Whether a Number is Prime or Not Example to check whether an integer (entered by the user) is a prime number or not using for loop and if...else statement. To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of following C programming topics: C if...else Statement C Programming for Loop C Programming break and continue Statement A prime number is a positive integer which is divisible only by 1 and itself. For example: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13 Example: Program to Check Prime Number #include <stdio.h> int main () { int n , i , flag = 0 ; printf ( "Enter a positive integer: " ); scanf ( "%d" , & n ); for ( i = 2 ; i <= n / 2 ; ++ i ) { // condition for nonprime number if ( n % i == 0 ) { flag = 1 ; break ; } } if ( n == 1 ) { printf ( "1 is neither a prime nor a comp...

C Program to Print an Integer (Entered by the User)

C Program to Print an Integer (Entered by the User) In this program, integer entered by the user is stored in a variable. Then, that variable is displayed on the screen using printf() function.   To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of following C programming topics: C Programming Constants and Variables C Programming Data Types C Input Output (I/O) Program to Print an Integer #include <stdio.h> int main () { int number ; // printf() dislpays the formatted output printf ( "Enter an integer: " ); // scanf() reads the formatted input and stores them scanf ( "%d" , & number ); // printf() displays the formatted output printf ( "You entered: %d" , number ); return 0 ; } Output Enter a integer: 25 You entered: 25 In this program, an integer variable  number is declared. ...

C Program to Check Whether a Number is Even or Odd

C Program to Check Whether a Number is Even or Odd In this example, if...else statement is used to check whether a number entered by the user is even or odd.   To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of following C programming topics: C Programming Operators C if...else Statement An even number is an integer that is exactly divisible by 2. Example: 0, 8, -24 An odd number is an integer that is not exactly divisible by 2. Example: 1, 7, -11, 15 Example #1: Program to Check Even or Odd #include <stdio.h> int main () { int number ; printf ( "Enter an integer: " ); scanf ( "%d" , & number ); // True if the number is perfectly divisible by 2 if ( number % 2 == 0 ) printf ( "%d is even." , number ); else printf ( "%d is odd." , number ); return 0 ; } Output Enter an integer: ...
