Ex. No: 1 I/O STATEMENTS, OPERATORS AND EXPRESSIONS

Aim:
To write a C program using I/O statements, operators and expressions.

Algorithm:
1. Read a character, a string, a float value, an integer number, a double value from the user
using scanf() statement and store it in variables ch, str, flt, num, dbl.
2. Display all the variables using printf() statement.
3. Assign the operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and modulus for the values of
a and b.
4. Display the result for various operations

Program:
#include<stdio.h>
int main ()
{
char ch,str[20];
float flt;
int num, a = 5, b = 3, c = a + b; double
dbl;
printf("Enter a character\n");
scanf("%c",&ch);
printf("Enter a string\n");
scanf("%s",&str);
printf("Enter a float value\
n"); scanf("%f",&flt);
printf("Enter an integer\n");
scanf("%d",&num);
printf("Enter a double value\n");
scanf("%lf",&dbl);
printf("\n Displaying:\n");
printf("Character is %c\n",ch);
printf("String is %s\n",str);
printf("Float value is %f\n",flt);
printf("Integer value is %d\n",num);
printf("Double value is %lf\n",dbl);
printf("\n Expressions:\n");
printf("Prefix value is %d\n",++c);
printf("Postfix value is %d\n",c++);
printf("Infix value is %d\n",a+b);
printf("\n Operations:\n");
printf("Addition is %d\n",a+b);
printf("Subtraction is %d\n",a-b);
printf("Muliplication is %d\n",a*b);
printf("Division is %d\n",a/b);
printf("Modulus is %d\n",a%b);
return 0;
