[Tutorial 7] 14.Write a program that converts inches to centimeters. For example, if the user enters 16.9 for a Length in inches, the output would be 42.926cm. (Hint: 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters.)

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
float inches, centimeters;

/*Input length in inches from the user*/
    printf("Enter length in inches: ");
    scanf("%f", &inches);

/*Convert inches to centimeters*/
    centimeters = inches * 2.54;

/* Display the result */
    printf("%.2f inches is equal to %.3f centimeters\n", inches, centimeters);

return 0;
}

This C program efficiently converts a length in inches inputted by the user into centimeters using the conversion factor of 1 inch equal to 2.54 centimeters. By taking user input, performing a simple multiplication based on the conversion factor, and then displaying the converted length in centimeters, the program offers a straightforward and practical tool for length conversion, facilitating quick and accurate calculations in a single execution.

Introduction To C

Image
Dennis Ritchie C programming is considered as the base for other programming languages, that is why it is known as mother language . Because most compilers, JVMs, kernels, etc. are written in C, and because most programming languages (such C++, Java, C#, etc.) adopt C syntax, C language is regarded as the mother tongue of all current programming languages. It offers the fundamental ideas used in numerous languages, including C++, Java, C#, and others, such as the array, strings, functions, file management, etc. C programming language  was developed in 1972 by  Dennis Ritchie  at bell laboratories of AT&T (American Telephone & Telegraph), located in the U.S.A. It was developed to overcome the problems of previous languages such as B, BCPL, etc. Initially, C language was developed to be used in UNIX operating system. It inherits many features of previous languages such as B and BCPL. Let's see the programming languages that were developed before C language. Lan

First C Program

Image
Before starting the abcd of C language, you need to learn how to write, compile and run the first c program. To write the first c program, open the C console and write the following code: #include <stdio.h> :-includes the standard input output library functions. The printf() function is defined in stdio.h . int main() :-The main() function is the entry point of every program in c language. printf() :-The printf() function is used to print data on the console. return 0 :-The return 0 statement, returns execution status to the OS. The 0 value is used for successful execution and 1 for unsuccessful execution. You will see the following output on user screen.

Compilation process in c

Image
   What is a compilation?        C is a programming language that converts source code into object code or machine code. The conversion process has four steps: Pre-processing, Compiling, Assembling, and Linking.      The preprocessor eliminates all the comments from the source code and carries out the preprocessor directives. For instance, it substitutes the directive <stdio.h> with the contents of the 'stdio.h' file.       The following are the phases through which our program passes before being transformed into an executable form:         Preprocessor         Compiler         Assembler         Linker Preprocessor A source code file is a text file that contains instructions written in the C programming language. The file name has a ".c" extension to indicate its format. Before compiling the source code, a preprocessor analyzes and modifies it according to certain directives. The preprocessor then passes the expanded code to the compiler, which translates it in
