Write a C program to get float datatype as input and print the output as integer datatype.

Question

I tried this code but I guess I am wrong 😒😣!!!
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
void main()
{
float a;
int b;
b = (int)a;
printf("Enter a float number");
scanf("%f",&b);
printf(b);
return 0;
}

Answer 1

This is because after assigning type casted value "a" to to integer variable "b", you are again telling compiler to cast "b" to type float by using "%f" format specifier.

Here is the fix 👇

P.S. in the fix, I have removed excess or non-standard code from your original program.

Answer 2

I think you should use "a" in scanf instead of "b" and then typecast it to int

Answer 3

Thank you so much Arsenic. It was of great help. 🤗

Answer 4

I tried Name the way you told:-
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
void main()
{
float a;
int b;
b = (int)a;
printf("Enter a float number");
scanf("%f",&a);
printf("Value in integer: %f\n",&a);
return 0;
}

But I am getting the value as zero after inputting any float value.
