    Notes of Different Dominations

    Q) Write a program to determine the smallest number of notes of different domination that are required for an amount input by a user. Assume that the notes are in domination of 100,50,20,10,5,2 and 1.

    Code:
    #include<stdio.h>
    int main()
    {
        int amount,x;
        int dom[7]={100,50,20,10,5,2,1};
        int num[7]={0,0,0,0,0,0,0};
        printf("Enter the amount:");
        scanf("%d",&amount);
        x=amount;
        for(int i=0;i<7;i++){
            while(x>=dom[i]){
                x-=dom[i];
                num[i]++;
            }
        }
        printf("The min no of note for amount % d is when there are:\n",amount);
        for(int j=0;j<7;j++){
            if (num[j]!=0)
                 printf("%d notes of %d\n",num[j],dom[j]);
        }
        return 0;
    }
    I would like to know if this is good or someother more efficient code can be written.
    Thanks

    You can replace the inner while loop with suitable application of / and %
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
