find total number of even and odd elements in a given array using C programming. Logic to count even
and odd elements in array using loops.

Example

Input

Output

Total even elements: 4

Total odd elements: 5

Step by step descriptive logic to count total even and odd elements in array.

1. Input size and elements in array from user. Store it in some variable say size and arr .

2. Declare and initialize two variables with zero to store even and odd count. Say even = 0 and
odd = 0 .

3. Iterate through each array element. Run a loop from 0 to size - 1 . Loop structure should look
like for(i=0; i<size; i++) .

4. Inside loop increment even count by 1 if current array element is even. Otherwise increment the
odd count.

Learn di erent ways of checking even odd.

Program to check even odd using if else.
Program to check or odd using conditional statement.
Program to check even odd using switch case.
Program to check even odd using bitwise operator.

5. Print the values of even and odd count a er the termination of loop.

Enter size of the array: 10

Enter 10 elements in array: 5 6 4 12 19 121 1 7 9 63
