C Exercises: Find the prime numbers which are less than or equal to a given integer
C Basic Declarations and Expressions: Exercise-136 with Solution
Write a C program to find the prime numbers which are less than or equal to a given integer.
Input:
n (1 <= n <= 999,999)
Sample Solution:
C Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX_N 999999
int is_prime[MAX_N + 1];
int prime[MAX_N];
int main() {
int p = 0, i, j, n;
printf("Input a number:\n");
scanf("%d", & n);
for (i = 0; i <= n; i++)
is_prime[i] = 1;
is_prime[0] = is_prime[1] = 0;
for (i = 2; i <= n; i++) {
if (is_prime[i]) {
prime[p++] = i;
for (j = 2 * i; j <= n; j += i)
is_prime[j] = 0;
}
}
printf("Number of prime numbers which are less than or equal to %d ", n);
printf("\n%d", p);
return 0;
}
Sample Output:
Input a number: 123 Number of prime numbers which are less than or equal to 123 30

Previous: Write a C program which reads an integer n and find the number of combinations of a, b, c and d (0 <= a, b, c, d <= 9) where (a + b + c + d) will be equal to n.
Next: Write a C program to check if a point (x, y) is within a triangle or not. The triangle has formed by three points.

C Programming: Tips of the Day
Static variable inside of a function in C
The scope of variable is where the variable name can be seen. Here, x is visible only inside function foo().
The lifetime of a variable is the period over which it exists. If x were defined without the keyword static, the lifetime would be from the entry into foo() to the return from foo(); so it would be re-initialized to 5 on every call.
The keyword static acts to extend the lifetime of a variable to the lifetime of the programme; e.g. initialization occurs once and once only and then the variable retains its value - whatever it has come to be - over all future calls to foo().
