    if (PerHeight < 150.0)
        printf("The person is Dwarf. \n");
    else if ((PerHeight >= 150.0) && (PerHeight < 165.0))
        printf("The person is  average heighted. \n");
    else if ((PerHeight >= 165.0) && (PerHeight <= 195.0))

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().
