C Program to Find the Size of int, float, double and char

C Program to Find the Size of int, float, double and char

This program declares 4 variables of type int, float, double and char. Then, the size of each variable is evaluated using sizeof operator.
 
Sizeof operator to evaluate the size of a variable
To understand this example, you should have the knowledge of following C programming topics:

Example: Program to Find the Size of a variable

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int integerType;
    float floatType;
    double doubleType;
    char charType;

    // Sizeof operator is used to evaluate the size of a variable
    printf("Size of int: %ld bytes\n",sizeof(integerType));
    printf("Size of float: %ld bytes\n",sizeof(floatType));
    printf("Size of double: %ld bytes\n",sizeof(doubleType));
    printf("Size of char: %ld byte\n",sizeof(charType));

    return 0;
}
Output
Size of int: 4 bytes
Size of float: 4 bytes
Size of double: 8 bytes
Size of char: 1 byte
In this program, 4 variables integerType, floatType, doubleType and charType are declared having int, float, double and char type respectively.

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: ...
