Basic C Program
1. C Hello World Program. Explanation:
#include <stdio.h> #include <stdio.h> – This line includes the
int main() standard input-output library in the program.
{
int main() – The main function where the
printf("Hello World");
return 0; execution of the program begins.
} printf(“Hello, World!\n”); – This function call
Output:- prints “Hello, World!” followed by a new line.
return 0; -This statement indicates that the
Hello World
program ended successfully.
2. C Program to Print Your Own Name.

13. Write a program in C to calculate the Gross Salary of an employee based on the following
allowances and the basic salary:
Basic Salary: The starting salary of the employee, Enter by the user.
HRA (House Rent Allowance): 20% of the basic salary.

// Calculating allowances
hra = 0.20 * basic; // 20% of basic
da = 0.80 * basic; // 80% of basic
oa = 0.25 * basic; // 25% of basic
// Gross salary calculation
gross = basic + hra + da + oa;
// Display result
printf("\nBasic Salary : %.2f", basic);
printf("\nHRA (20%%) : %.2f", hra);
printf("\nDA (80%%) : %.2f", da);
printf("\nOther Allowance(25%%): %.2f", oa);

14. Write a C program to calculate the Gross Salary of an employee.
The program should take the Basic Salary and the percentages of HRA (House Rent
Allowance), DA (Dearness Allowance), and Other Allowance as input at runtime.
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
float basic; // Basic Salary
float hra_per, da_per, oa_per; // Percentages for allowances
float hra, da, oa, gross; // Allowances and Gross Salary
// Step 1: Input Basic Salary
printf("Enter Basic Salary of the Employee: ");
scanf("%f", &basic);
// Step 2: Input Percentages
printf("Enter HRA percentage: ");
scanf("%f", &hra_per);
Program Output
printf("Enter DA percentage: ");
scanf("%f", &da_per); Enter Basic Salary of the Employee: 10000
printf("Enter Other Allowance percentage: "); Enter HRA percentage: 20
Enter DA percentage: 80
scanf("%f", &oa_per); Enter Other Allowance percentage: 25
// Step 3: Calculate Allowances
hra = (hra_per / 100) * basic; ------ Salary Breakdown ------
da = (da_per / 100) * basic; Basic Salary : 10000.00
HRA (20.00%) : 2000.00
oa = (oa_per / 100) * basic; DA (80.00%) : 8000.00
// Step 4: Calculate Gross Salary Other Allowance (25.00%): 2500.00
gross = basic + hra + da + oa; -------------------------------
// Step 5: Display Results Gross Salary = 22500.00
printf("\n------ Salary Breakdown ------\n");
printf("Basic Salary : %.2f\n", basic);
printf("HRA (%.2f%%) : %.2f\n", hra_per, hra);
printf("DA (%.2f%%) : %.2f\n", da_per, da);
printf("Other Allowance (%.2f%%): %.2f\n", oa_per, oa);
printf("-------------------------------\n");
printf("Gross Salary = %.2f\n", gross);
return 0;
}
