Program to Check Number is Positive or Negative

January 31, 2023

How to Check Number :

Number can be positive or negative, if number is greater than or equal to zero,than it is positive otherwise it will be negative.

Working of Program :

In the program, we will take a value from the user and check conditional statement to solve the problem.

Run

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    float val;
    printf("Enter a number to be check :");
    scanf("%f", &val);
    
    if(val >=0){
        printf("Given number %f is positive", val);
    }
    else{
        printf("Given number %f is negative", val);
    }
    return 0;
}

Output :

Enter a number to be check : 7
7
Given number 7.000000 is positive

In the above program,

We take a value from the user.
In step 1, we use if condition to check if number is greater than or equal to zero to find positive number.
If Number is negative, else statement will check in step 2.

Conditional Statement in C

Loops in C

Program to Add Numbers in C

Program to Find Largest Element of Arr ay

Program to Find Average using Array

Example :

Let make problem little complex by check following condition :

If number is greater then zero , print given number is Positive.
If number is zero, print given number is zero and positive.
If number is less than zero, print number is negative.

Run

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    float val;
    printf("Enter a number to be check :");
    scanf("%f", &val);
    
    if(val >0){
        printf("Given number %f is positive ", val);
    }
    else if(val == 0){
        printf("Given number %f is zero and positive", val);
    }
    else{
        printf("Given number %f is negative", val);
    }
    return 0;
}

Output :

Enter a number to be check :0
Given number 0.000000 is zero and positive

What Happened Above? In the above program, we take the value from user and use if else ladder to check different condition on whether number is zero, positive or negative.
