In this post, we are going to Write a C Program To Print an Integer (Entered by the User).
The integer entered by the user is stored in a variable and printed on the screen.
So, Without further ado, let’s begin the tutorial.
C Program To Print an Integer
// C Program To Print an Integer #include <stdio.h> int main(){ int num; // Display Message to Take Input printf("Enter an Integer: "); // Takes input from the User scanf("%d", &num); // Displays Output printf("The Entered Integer is: %d", num); return 0; }
Output
Enter an Integer:18
The Entered Integer is: 18
How Does This Program Work ?
int num;
In this program, we have declared an integer named num.
scanf("%d", &num);
The input is taken by using scanf() function, the integer is stored in the num variable.
printf("The Entered Integer is: %d", num);
Then, the value stored in the num variable is displayed on the screen using printf() function.
Some of the used terms are as follows:
#include <stdio.h> – In the first line we have used #include, it is a preprocessor command that tells the compiler to include the contents of the stdio.h(standard input and output) file in the program.
The stdio.h is a file which contains input and output functions like scanf() and printf() to take input and display output respectively.
Int main() – Here main() is the function name and int is the return type of this function. The Execution of any Programming written in C language begins with main() function.
Scanf() – Scanf() function is used to take input from the user. Here %d indicates that we are reading decimal/integer type.
printf() – printf() function is used to display and print the string under the quotation to the screen.
