C Program to find the Average of numbers

Here we will write two C programs to find the average of two numbers(entered by user).

Example 1: Program to find the average of two numbers

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int num1, num2;
    float avg;

    printf("Enter first number: ");
    scanf("%d",&num1);
    printf("Enter second number: ");
    scanf("%d",&num2);

    avg= (float)(num1+num2)/2;

    //%.2f is used for displaying output upto two decimal places
    printf("Average of %d and %d is: %.2f",num1,num2,avg);

    return 0;
}
Output:
Enter first number: 12
Enter second number: 13
Average of 12 and 13 is: 12.50

Example 2: Program to find the average using function

In this program, we have created a user defined function average() for the calculation of average. The numbers entered by user are passed to this function during function call.
#include <stdio.h>
float average(int a, int b){
    return (float)(a+b)/2;
}
int main()
{
    int num1, num2;
    float avg;

    printf("Enter first number: ");
    scanf("%d",&num1);
    printf("Enter second number: ");
    scanf("%d",&num2);

    avg = average(num1, num2);

    //%.2f is used for displaying output upto two decimal places
    printf("Average of %d and %d is: %.2f",num1,num2,avg);

    return 0;
}
Output:
Enter first number: 20
Enter second number: 13
Average of 20 and 13 is: 16.50

Recursive program to insert a star between pair of identical characters

Given a string with repeated characters, we have to insert a star i.e. ” * “  between pair of adjacent identical characters using recursion. Examples: Input : aabb Output : a*ab*b Input : xxxy Output : x*x*xy Recommended: Please try your approach on  {IDE}  first, before moving on to the solution. Approach: If there is an empty string then simply return. This forms our  base condition . Else we do the following- Check if the first two characters are identical. If yes, then insert ” * ” between them. As we have now checked for identical characters at first two positions of the string so we now make a recursive call  without the first character of the string . The above approach has been implemented below: C filter_none edit play_arrow brightness_4 // Recursive CPP program to insert * between // two consecutive same characters. #include <iostream> using namespace std;     // Funct...

Area of circle and use of #define

 To calculate the area and circumference of a circle with given radius. Get to know the ' #define'  directive. The code: -------------------------------------------- #include<stdio.h> #define PI 3.14159       //defining PI value main() {     float R,C,A;     printf("Give the radius of circle \nR= ");       scanf("%f",&R);     //scanning radius     C=2*PI*R;       //calculating circumference     A=PI*R*R;        //calculating area     printf("Circumference=%f    Area=%f\n",C,A); } ---------------------------------------------      First of all compile and run this program and see it works. Now notice that in the very second line of code I wrote a statement " #define PI 3.14159 " and further in the formulas for calculating area a...
