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 Positive or Negative

C Program to Check Whether a Number is Positive or Negative In this example, you will learn to check whether a number (entered by the user) is negative or positive.    To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of following C programming topics: C Programming Operators C if...else Statement This program takes a number from the user and checks whether that number is either positive or negative or zero. Example #1: Check if a Number is Positive or Negative Using if...else #include <stdio.h> int main () { double number ; printf ( "Enter a number: " ); scanf ( "%lf" , & number ); if ( number <= 0.0 ) { if ( number == 0.0 ) printf ( "You entered 0." ); else printf ( "You entered a negative number." ); } else printf ( "You entered a positive num

C Program to Multiply two Floating Point Numbers

C Program to Multiply two Floating Point Numbers In this program, user is asked to enter two numbers (floating point numbers). Then, the product of those two numbers is stored in a variable and displayed on the screen.   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) C Programming Operators Program to Multiply Two Numbers #include <stdio.h> int main () { double firstNumber , secondNumber , product ; printf ( "Enter two numbers: " ); // Stores two floating point numbers in variable firstNumber and secondNumber respectively scanf ( "%lf %lf" , & firstNumber , & secondNumber ); // Performs multiplication and stores the result in variable productOfTwoNumbers product = firstNumber * secondNumber ; //

C Program to Check Whether a Number is Palindrome or Not

C Program to Check Whether a Number is Palindrome or Not This program reverses an integer (entered by the user) using while loop. Then, if statement is used to check whether the reversed number is equal to the original number or not.   To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of following C programming topics: C Programming Operators C if...else Statement C Programming while and do...while Loop An integer is a palindrome if the reverse of that number is equal to the original number. Example: Program to Check Palindrome #include <stdio.h> int main () { int n , reversedInteger = 0 , remainder , originalInteger ; printf ( "Enter an integer: " ); scanf ( "%d" , & n ); originalInteger = n ; // reversed integer is stored in variable while ( n != 0 ) { remainder = n % 10 ; reversedInteger = reversed
