switch case in c

switch case control istruction:-  where nesting is not easy in this situation switch case is used.it use 4 keywords switch ,case ,break and default.
syntax:-
switch (expression)
{
case constant_value:code; break;
case constant_value:code; break;
case constant_value:code; break;
default:code;
}
notes:-here expression not in true or false.it is a number
this expression compare with all constant_value if it is match the corresponding code is running, if expression does not match with any case, the default case is run.

rule:-constant_value will be different.
  • constant cannot be real.
  • if case 2 is match then from case 2 to default all case are executed but not 1, if we want one one case executed then break keyword is used , which end the switch case.
  • default can be used any where.
Example:-

Identifiers in C

Identifiers are:-  constant variables keywords Define constant:- Any information is constant data = information = constant types of constant primary:- integer,real,character secondary:- they are made with the help of primary such as:- array,string,pointer,union,etc. Define variables:- variables are the name of memory location where we store data variable name is any combination of alphabet,digit the first letter cannot be a digit Keywords:-  keywords are the predefined or reserved words.In C there are 31 keywords.C is a case sensitive so use keyword in small alphabets. 

Introduction to C

About C:- C is a high-level language . It was initially first developed by D ennis Ritchie in 1972. It was developed to overcome the limitation of previous language such as B,BCPL etc. It was developed for Unix operating System It inherits many features of previous language Features/Advantage:- Simple :- because it provide data types, library function etc. Machine Independent or Portable:- because it can be executed on different machine Procedural language:- Instruction in c program are executed step by step Structured programming language:- break the problem into parts It provide dynamic memory allocation , pointers etc. Speed:-It is faster than another programming language like java, python etc. Disadvantage of C:- It does not support oops concept in which inheritance, polymorphism, encapsulation etc. come. It does not support namespace concept It does not support constructor and destructor There is lack of excepti...

Functions:---

Definition:- it is basically a piece of code it has name for identification a function can be called multiple times to maintain the reusability and modularity. by writing function we can avoid same writing/piece of code Function aspects:-  3 aspects of function are 1.function declaration:- a function must be declared globally in c , to tell the compiler about function name, function return type, function parameter.           Syntax:-   return_type function_name(arguments or data_types parameter);              example:-   void sum(int a,int b); 2.function call:-  a function can be called anywhere from the program, pass the same no. of parameter as we write in function declaration.         Syntax:-   function_name(argument_list)             example:-   sum(a,b) 3.function definition:-  it contains the actual statements whi...
