C language
Introduction:
C is a programming language developed by Dennis Ritchie at AT&T‟s BELL
Laboratory of USA in 1972. Because of its reliability, C is very popular. C is highly
portable & it is well suited for structured programming. C program consists of
collection of functions.
Hardware Requirement:
Desktop Computer/ Laptop computer
Software Requirement:
Linux Operating System with GCC/ Turbo C/C++ or Windows Operating
System with Code::Blocks IDE.
Code::Blocks IDE:
CodeBlocks is an open-source, cross-platform (Windows, Linux, MacOS), and
free C/C++ IDE. It supports many compilers, such as GNU GCC (MinGW and
Cygwin) and MS Visual C++. It supports interactive debugging (via GNU GDB or
MS CDB).
Code::Blocks offers a very flexible and comprehensive project management
and is versatile. In Code::Blocks, the sources and the settings for the build process
are stored in a project file <name>.cbp. C/C++ sources and the corresponding header
files are the typical components of a project. The easiest way to create a new project
is executing the command ’File’ →’Project’ and selecting a wizard.
Code::Blocks governs the project files in categories according to their file
extensions. These are the preset categories:
Sources includes source files with the extensions *.c;*.cpp;.
ASM Sources includes source files with the extensions *.s;*.S;*.ss;*.asm.
Headers includes, among others, files with the extension *.h;.

Creating a new project using Code::Blocks:
Open Code::Blocks from your desktop or programs menu.
Launch the Project Wizard through File->New->Project... to start a new
project. Here there are many pre-configured templates for various types of
projects, including the option to create custom templates. Select Console
application, as this is the most common for general purposes, an click Go.
The console application wizard will appear next. Continue through the
menus, selecting C when prompted for a language. In the next screen, give the
project a name and type or select a destination folder. Code::Blocks will
generate the remaining entries from these two.
Finally, the wizard will ask if this project should use the default compiler
(normally GCC) and the two default builds: Debug and Release. All of these
settings are fine. Press finish and the project will be generated. The main
window will turn gray, but that is not a problem, the source file needs only to
be opened. In the Projects tab of the Management pane on the left expand the
folders and double click on the source file main.cpp to open it in the editor.
This file contains the following standard code. main.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main()
{
printf("Hello world!\n");
return 0;
}
To build the program, select "Build" menu ⇒ Build
To run the program, select "Build" menu ⇒ Run. Now the output screen can be seen.

INPUTTING A CHARACTER
AIM : Write a C program to interactively get a character from keyboard and display its ASCII value.
PROGRAM LOGIC: The character is read in to a variable of character data type. The value of the
character is displayed on screen as an integer, which is nothing but the ASCII value of the character.
PROGRAM:
main()
{
char my_alphabet; // declaration
printf("ENTER A CHARACTER-");
my_alphabet=getchar(); // getting the alphabet
printf("THE ASCII VALUE OF ‘%c’ IS %d",my_alphabet,my_alphabet);
}
ALGORITHM: (to be written on left side of record)
Step 1: Start
Step 2: Input a character
Step 3: Display the ASCII value of the character
Step 4: Stop
FLOW CHART: (to be drawn on left side of record)
Start
Input a character
Display the ASCII
value of the character

ADDITION OF TWO NUMBERS
AIM: To write a C program to find the sum of two given numbers.
PROGRAM LOGIC: The two numbers to be added are read as two variables. The sum of the two
numbers is calculated and displayed.
ALGORITHM: (to be written on left side of record)
Step 1: Start
Step 2: Input num1, num2
Step 3: sum = num1+num2
Step 4: Display the sum
Step 4: Stop
FLOW CHART: (to be drawn on left side of record)
Start
Input two numbers
Sum = num1 + num2
Display the sum
Stop

int main()
{
int num1,num2,sum;
printf("ENTER TWO NUMBERs-");
scanf("%d %d",&num1, &num2);//reading the inputs
sum= num1 + num2;//calculate sum of the numbers
printf("THE SUM OF %d and %d IS-%d\n",num1,num2,sum);
return 0;
}

SUBRACTION OF TWO NUMBERS
AIM: To write a C program to find the difference of two given numbers.
PROGRAM LOGIC: The two numbers to be subtracted are read as two variables. The difference of
the two numbers is calculated and displayed.
