Typedef‘C’ allows to define new datatype names using the ‘typedef’ keyword. Using ‘typedef’, we cannot create a new datatype but define a new name for already existing type.Syntaxtypedef datatype newname;Exampletypedef int bhanu; int a; bhanu a; %dThis statement tells the compiler to recognize ‘bhanu’ as another name for ‘int’.‘bhanu’ is used to create another variable ‘a’ .‘bhanu a ‘declares ‘a’ as a variable of type ‘int’.Example#include main (){    typedef int hours;    hours h; //int h;    clrscr ();    printf("Enter hours”);    scanf ("%d”, &h);    printf("Minutes =%d”, h*60);    printf("Seconds = %d”, h*60*60);    getch (); ...

ProblemCan we declare a structure with no members in C, if yes what will be the size of that structure?SolutionYes, it is allowed in C programming language that we can declare a structure without any member and in that case the size of the structure with no members will be 0 (Zero). It will be a Zero size structure.Example Live Demo#include //structure with no members struct temp{ }; int main(){    //declaring structure variable    struct temp T;    printf("Size of T: %d", sizeof(T));    return 0; }OutputIn this C program, we are declaring a structure named "temp" without declare ...

The atoi() is predefined function used to convert a numeric string to its integer value.Create a customized atoi()The atoi() only converts a numeric string to integer value, so we need to check the validity of the string.If this function encounters any non-numeric character in the given string, the conversion from string to integer will be stopped.Example Live Demo#include #include #include int main(){    int value;    char string1[] = "3567";    value = atoi(string1);    printf("String value = %s", string1);    printf("Integer value = %d", value);    char string2[] = "TutorialsPoint";    value = atoi(string2);    printf("String value ...

ProblemWhat do you mean by String to number and number to string conversion in C programming language?SolutionThere are two functions available for conversion. They are −sscanf() − convert string to numbersprintf () − used for converting number to stringString to number conversionWe can convert string to number using the sscanf() function −Syntaxsscanf (string name, “control string”, variable list)Example#include main (){    char a[20] = “02 01 2010”;    int day, mon, yr;    clrscr();    sscanf (a, “%d%d %d”, &day, &mon, &yr);    printf ( “Day =%d”, day);    printf ( “Month = %d”, mon);    printf ( “Year = ...

Arrays of pointers (to strings)Array of pointers is an array whose elements are pointers to the base address of the string.It is declared and initialized as follows −char *a[3 ] = {"one", "two", "three"}; //Here, a[0] is a ptr to the base add of the string "one" //a[1] is a ptr to the base add of the string "two" //a[2] is a ptr to the base add of the string "three"AdvantagesUnlink the two-dimensional array of characters.

Pointer is a variable which stores the address of other variable.Features of PointersFollowing are the features of pointers −Saves the memory spaceExecution time is faster because of direct access to memory location.The memory is accessed efficiently with the pointer i.e. dynamically memory is allocated and deallocated.Pointers are used with data structures.Here is an example for search demonstration −We can access and print a particular character in a string by using pointers.Following example shows how to access the elements using pointer −Example Live Demo#include int main(){    char array[5] = "Tutorial", *ptr, i, *ptr1;    ptr = &array[1];    ptr1 = ptr ...
