conversion, Operator Precedence and Associativity, Evaluation of

Expression.
List of Experiments:
1. Design and develop a C program for the following:
a) To read a year as an input and find whether it is leap year or not.

03

(Also consider end of the centuries).

b) To find the largest of three numbers using Ternary Operator.
Formatted & Unformatted Input & Output statements: printf ( ),
scanf( ), getchar( ), gets( ), getch( ), putch( ), puts( ), putchar( ).
Branching and Looping: Two way selection: if, if-else, nested if-else,

08

switch statement, goto statement, Loops: for, while-do, do-while, break

and continue.
List of Experiments:
2. Design and develop a C program that accepts three coefficients (a, b,
and c) of a Quadratic equation (ax2 +bx+c=0) as input and compute
2

all possible roots and print the possible roots for a given set of

CO3

coefficients. Also print the message in case of Zero valued

coefficient/s.
3. Design and develop a C program to find the reverse of an integer
number NUM and check whether it is PALINDROME or NOT.
Implement a C program for the developed algorithm that takes an
integer number as input and output the reverse of the same with
suitable messages. Ex: Num: 1234, Reverse: 4321, Not a Palindrome.

06

Functions: Introduction to functions, function protype,Types of

Functions, Function Definition, Function Call, Function Declaration,
Categories of Functions, Actual & Formal parameters, call by value & call
by reference.

08

Recursion: Definition, general functioning of recursive functions,

3

programs using recursive functions: Fibonacci series, factorial of given

CO4

number.
List of Experiments:
4. Design and develop a C function isprime (num) that accepts an integer
argument and returns 1 if the argument is prime, 0 otherwise. Write a

03

C program that invokes this function to generate prime numbers

4

between the given ranges.

Arrays and Strings: Introduction, Declaration & Initialization of 1D

CO6

array, Reading and printing of arrays 1 D array ,Bubble sort, Linear &
Binary search, Reading and printing of 2D array, programs on Matrix
operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, transpose.

08

Introduction to Strings: Declaration & Initialization of String Handling

functions: strlen( ), strcpy( ), strcat( ), strrev( ), strcmp( ), strncmp(),
strncpy(), strlwr( ) , strupr( ).
List of Experiments:
5. Design and develop a C program that reads N integer numbers and
arrange them in ascending order using Bubble Sort.
6. Design and develop a C program that reads N integer numbers and
search a key element using Binary searching Technique.
7. Design and develop a C program that reads two matrices A (m x n)
and B (p x q) and Compute product of matrices A and B. Read matrix
A and matrix B in row major order. Print both the input matrices and
resultant matrix appropriately.
8. Design and develop a C program to implement the following

12

operations without using library functions. Display the results after

every operation.
a. Read STRING s1 = Dayananda
b. Read STRING s2 = Sagar
c. Output the concatenated string (s1+s2) STIRNG s3 =
Dayananda Sagar
Structures: Introduction to Structures, declaration and Initialization of
structures, accessing members of structure, Array of structure, passing
structure to function.

08

Pointers: Introduction to Pointers, Declaration of pointers, Initialization

of pointer, pointer arithmetic, Pointer to an array, functions using pointers.
List of Experiments:
9. Design and develop a C program to create a structure called Employee
5

CO5

to maintain a record of details using an array of structures with four

fields (Emp_name, Emp_id, Emp_age and Emp_sal). Assume
appropriate data type for each field. Print the Employee details in
Tabular Format.
10. Write a C program using pointers to compute the sum, mean and
standard deviation of all elements stored in an array of n real numbers.

Self study component:
