Thread: C programming Beginner Question (More Helpful if provide me with the code)

So what have you managed to do so far?

Can you for example input two numbers?
Can you add them?

insert

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
	int a,b,sum,rev=0,remainder,i;
	printf("Please enter the two integers:");
	scanf("%d%d",&a,&b);
	
	sum=a+b;
	while(sum!=0){
		remainder=sum%10;
		rev=rev*10+remainder;
		sum/=10;
	}
	
	for(i=0;i<=sum;i++){
	if(sum==i*i){
		printf("Alice wins");
	}
	else if(rev==i*i)
	{printf("Bob wins");
	}
	return 0;
	}
}

I am struggling here...

A couple of points.

1. You need to move bits of code into functions.
> "Write two functions int is_square(int num) and int reverse(int num)"

2. Indentation matters - yes, really!

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
  int a, b, sum, rev = 0, remainder, i;
  printf("Please enter the two integers:");
  scanf("%d%d", &a, &b);

  sum = a + b;
  while (sum != 0) {
    remainder = sum % 10;
    rev = rev * 10 + remainder;
    sum /= 10;
  }

  for (i = 0; i <= sum; i++) {
    if (sum == i * i) {
      printf("Alice wins");
    } else if (rev == i * i) {
      printf("Bob wins");
    }
    return 0;
  }
}

So for example
- you mess up the sum value, trying to compute the rev value.
- your return 0; is inside the for loop, so your loop runs only once anyway.
- Alice always wins, because you managed to make sum = 0 trying to compute rev.
