C Exercises: Counts the number of positive numbers and print the average of all positive values

C Basic Declarations and Expressions: Exercise-28 with Solution

Write a C program that read 5 numbers and counts the number of positive numbers and print the average of all positive values.

Pictorial Presentation:

C Programming: Counts the number of positive numbers and print the average of all positive values

C Code:

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
	float numbers[5],total=0, avg;
	int j, pctr=0; 
	printf("\nInput the first number: "); 
    scanf("%f", &numbers[0]);
    printf("\nInput the second number: "); 
    scanf("%f", &numbers[1]);
    printf("\nInput the third number: "); 
    scanf("%f", &numbers[2]);
	printf("\nInput the fourth number: "); 
    scanf("%f", &numbers[3]);
    printf("\nInput the fifth number: "); 
    scanf("%f", &numbers[4]);
	for(j = 0; j < 5; j++) {
		if(numbers[j] > 0)
		{
			pctr++;
			total += numbers[j];
		}	
    }
    avg = total/pctr;
	printf("\nNumber of positive numbers: %d", pctr);
	printf("\nAverage value of the said positive numbers: %.2f", avg);
	printf("\n");
	return 0;
}

Sample Output:

Input the first number: 5                                              
                                                                       
Input the second number: 8                                             
                                                                       
Input the third number: 10                                             
                                                                       
Input the fourth number: -5                                            
                                                                       
Input the fifth number: 25                                             
                                                                       
Number of positive numbers: 4                                          
Average value of the said positive numbers: 12.00

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().
