C Program to validate an IP address
In this program we will see how to validate an IP address using C. The IPv4 addresses are represented in dot-decimal notation. There are four decimal numbers (all are ranging from 0 to 255). These four numbers are separated by three dots.An example of a valid IP is: 192.168.4.1To validate the IP address we should follow these stepsTokenize the string (IP address) using the dot “.” delimiterIf the sub strings are containing any non-numeric character, then return falseIf the number in each token is not in range 0 to 255, then return falseIf there are exactly three dots and four ...
Read MoreC program to print digital clock with current time
In this section we will see how to make a digital clock using C. To work with time we can use the time.h header file. This header file has some function signatures that are used to handle date and time related issues.The four important components of time.h is like belowsize_t This size_t is basically the unsigned integral type. This is the result of sizeof().clock_t This is used to store the processor timetime_t This is used to store calendar timestruct tm This is a structure. It helps to hold the entire date and time.Example Code#include #include int main() { ...
Read MoreC program to write an image in PGM format
The PGM is the Portable Gray Map. If we want to store a 2d array in C as images in PNG, JPEG, or any other image format, we have to do lots of work to encode the data in some specified format before writing into a file.The Netpbm format gives an easy and portable solution. The Netpbm is an open source package of graphics program and it is used basically in linux or Unix platform. It also works under Microsoft Windows systems.Each file starts with a two-byte magic number. This magic number is used to identify the type of the ...
Read MoreC Program to display hostname and IP address
In this section we will see how to see the Host name and IP address of the local system in an easier way. We will write a C program to find the host name and IP.Some of the following functions are used. These functions have different task. Let us see the functions and their tasks.FunctionDescriptiongethostname()It finds the standard host name for the local computer.gethostbyname()It finds the host information corresponding to a host name from host databaseiten_ntoa()It converts an IPv4 Internet network address into an ASCII string into dotted decimal format.Example Code#include #include #include #include #include ...
Read MoreC program to print a string without any quote in the program
This is another tricky problem. In this program, we will see how to print a string using C where no quotation marks are used.Here we are using macro function. We are defining a macro function like#define getString(x) #xThe getString() is a macro function. It returns x by converting it into a string. The # before x is denoting that the function will convert x into a string.Input: Take one string without quote Output: Print that string into consoleAlgorithmStep 1:Take a string without quote Step 2: Use macro function to print it into a string Step 3: EndExample Code Live Demo#include #define ...
Read MoreConvert a floating point number to string in C
In this section we will see how to convert a number (integer or float or any other numeric type data) to a string.The logic is very simple. Here we will use the sprintf() function. This function is used to print some value or line into a string, but not in the console. This is the only difference between printf() and sprintf(). Here the first argument is the string buffer. where we want to save our data.Input: User will put some numeric value say 42.26 Output: This program will return the string equivalent result of that number like “42.26”AlgorithmStep 1 − ...
Read MoreHow to detect integer overflow in C/C++?
The only safe way is to check for overflow before it occurs. There are some hacky ways of checking for integer overflow though. So if you're aiming for detecting overflow in unsigned int addition, you can check if the result is actually lesser than either values added. So for example, Example Codeunsigned int x, y; unsigned int value = x + y; bool overflow = value < x; // Alternatively "value < y" should also workThis is because if x and y are both unsigned ints, if added and they overflow, their values can't be greater than either of them ...
Read MoreInitialization of a multidimensional arrays in C/C++
In multidimensional array, the array should have dimension more that 1. The following diagram shows the memory allocation strategy for a multidimensional array with dimension 3 x 3 x 3.This is a C++ program to initialize a multidimensional array.AlgorithmBegin Initialize the elements of a multidimensional array. Print the size of the array. Display the content of the array. EndExample#include using namespace std; int main() { int r, c; int a[][2] = {{3,1},{7,6}}; cout
Read MoreWhy C treats array parameters as pointers?
C treats array parameter as pointers because it is less time consuming and more efficient. Though if we can pass the address of each element of the array to a function as argument but it will be more time consuming. So it’s better to pass the base address of first element to the function like:void fun(int a[]) { … } void fun(int *a) { //more efficient. ….. }Here is a sample code in C:#include void display1(int a[]) //printing the array content { int i; printf("Current content of the array is: "); for(i = 0; i < ...
Read MoreSum of array using pointer arithmetic in C
In this program, we need to find sum of array elements using pointer arithmetic.Here we use * which denotes the value stored at the memory address and this address will remain stored in the variable. Thus “int *ptr” means, ptr is a variable which contains an address and content of the address is an integer quantity.*p means it is a pointer variable. Using this and sum() we will find out sum of the elements of array.Example Code#include void s(int* a, int len) { int i, s_of_arr = 0; for (i = 0; i
