C program to find in which quadrant the coordinates lie.
Problem
Write a program to find the quadrant in which the given coordinates lie.
User has to enter a coordinate at runtime and we need to find the quadrant in which these coordinates lie.
Solution
- If both numbers are positive then, it displays the first quadrant.
Example: Input =2, 3 Output = 1st quadrant
- If the first number is negative and the second number is positive then, it displays the second quadrant.
Example: Input = -4, 3 Output= 2nd quadrant
- If the first number is negative and the second number is also negative then, it displays the third quadrant.
Example: Input = -5,-7 Output= 3rd quadrant
- If the first number is positive and the second number is negative then, it displays the fourth quadrant.
Example: Input = 3,-5 Output = 4th quadrant
Example
Following is the C program to find the quadrant in which the given coordinates lie −
#include <stdio.h>
int main(){
int a,b;
printf("enter two coordinates:");
scanf("%d %d",&a,&b);
if(a > 0 && b > 0)
printf("1st Quadrant");
else if(a < 0 && b > 0)
printf("2nd Quadrant");
else if(a < 0 && b < 0)
printf("3rd Quadrant");
else if(a > 0 && b < 0)
printf("4th Quadrant");
else
printf("Origin");
return 0;
}Output
When the above program is executed, it produces the following output −
Run 1: enter two coordinates:-4 6 2nd Quadrant Run 2: enter two coordinates:-5 -3 3rd Quadrant
