The function puts() and printf() are declared in stdio.h header file and are used to send the text to the output stream. Both have different usages and syntax.puts()The function puts() is used to print the string on the output stream with the additional new line character ‘’. It moves the cursor to the next line. Implementation of puts() is easier than printf().Here is the syntax of puts() in C language, puts(“string”);If you do not want the cursor to be moved to the new line, use the following syntax.fputs(string, stdout)Here is an example of puts() in C language, Example Live Demo#include int ...

Register variables tell the compiler to store the variable in CPU register instead of memory. Frequently used variables are kept in registers and they have faster accessibility. We can never get the addresses of these variables. “register” keyword is used to declare the register variables.Scope − They are local to the function.Default value − Default initialized value is the garbage value.Lifetime − Till the end of the execution of the block in which it is defined.Here is an example of register variable in C language, Example Live Demo#include int main() {    register char x = 'S';    register int ...

In C language, ftell() returns the current file position of the specified stream with respect to the starting of the file. This function is used to get the total size of file after moving the file pointer at the end of the file. It returns the current position in long type and file can have more than 32767 bytes of data.Here is the syntax of ftell() in C language, long int ftell(FILE *stream)Here is the parameter used in ftell(), stream − This is the pointer to a FILE object that identifies the stream.Here is an example of ftell() in C ...

Relational OperatorsRelational operators are used to compare two values in C language. It checks the relationship between two values. If relation is true, it returns 1. However, if the relation is false, it returns 0.Here is the table of relational operators in C languageOperatorsOperator Name==Equal to>Greater than=Greater than or equal toy)    printf("x is greater than y ");    if(x

External variables are also known as global variables. These variables are defined outside the function. These variables are available globally throughout the function execution. The value of global variables can be modified by the functions. “extern” keyword is used to declare and define the external variables.Scope − They are not bound by any function. They are everywhere in the program i.e. global.Default value − Default initialized value of global variables are Zero.Lifetime − Till the end of the execution of the program.Here are some important points about extern keyword in C language, External variables can be declared number of times ...

Increment operators are used to increase the value by one while decrement works opposite increment. Decrement operator decreases the value by one.Here is the syntax of pre-increment operator in C language, ++variable_name;Here is the syntax of pre-decrement operator in C language, --variable_name;Let us see the difference between pre-increment and pre-decrement operator.Pre-increment − Before assigning the value to the variable, the value is incremented by one.Here is an example of pre-increment in C language, Example Live Demo#include int main() {    int i = 5;    printf("The pre-incremented value : %d", i);    while(++i < 10 )    printf("%d\t", i);   ...

The sinh() function returns the hyperbolic sine of an angle given in radians. It is an inbuilt function in C++ STL.The syntax of the sinh() function is given as follows.sinh(var)As can be seen from the syntax, the function sinh() accepts a parameter var of data type float, double or long double. It returns the hyperbolic sine of var.A program that demonstrates sinh() in C++ is given as follows.Example Live Demo#include #include using namespace std; int main() {    double d = 5, ans;    ans = sinh(d);    cout

The function strncat() in C++ is used for concatenation. It appends the specified number of characters from the source string at the end of the destination string and returns a pointer to the destination string. The syntax of strncat() is given as follows.char * strncat ( char * dest, const char * src, size_t num );In the above syntax, the source string src is appended at the end of the destination string dest till num characters only.A program that demonstrates strcat() is given as follows.Example Live Demo#include #include using namespace std; int main() {    char str1[20] = "Programming ...

Both strcat() and strncat() are predefined string functions in C++. Details about these are given as follows.strcat()This function is used for concatenation. It appends a copy of the source string at the end of the destination string and returns a pointer to the destination string. The syntax of strcat() is given as follows.char *strcat(char *dest, const char *src)A program that demonstrates strcat() is given as follows.Example Live Demo#include #include using namespace std; int main() {    char str1[20] = "Mangoes are ";    char str2[20] = "yellow";    strcat(str1, str2);    cout

VariablesIn C language, variables are the storage place where some form of data is stored. Different variables require different amount of memory on which a set of operations is applied.A variable name cannot start with a number. It can consist of alphabets, number, underscore “_”.Here is the syntax of declaring variables in C language, type variable_name;Here is the syntax of multiple variables declaration in C language, type variable_name1, variable_name2, variable_name3;The following is an example of variables in C language, Example Live Demo#include int main() {    char a1 = 'H';    int b = 90, c = 150;    float ...
