Question

1(a) The following segment of code contains at least three (3) syntax errors that will compilation to fail with errors. Identify each of these errors and specify the solution. [2 marks each, 6 marks in total] cause #include <stdio.h> void main (void) float height; float area; printf "input height of the rectangle: ") scanf( "%f", &height) printf"input length of the rectangle: scanf"", &length); height length; area printf( area of rectangle %f high and %f long is 8f\n", height, length, area )

answer two question,each question has 3syntax errors,find it.

Answer 1

For Q1:

#include <stdio.h>

void main (void){
float height,length; //declare length
float area;
printf( "input height of the rectangle: " );
scanf( "%f" ,&height);
printf( "input length Of the rectangle: " ); //end this print statement with ";"
scanf( "%f" ,&length); //error here %f to be used here
area = length*height ;
printf( "area of rectangle %f high and &f long is %f\n",height, length, area ) ;
//use " at the start of the string (area of...)
}

For Q2:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
int main() { // enclose main() with "{"
   double value,result; /*use val instead of value here since variable used below is value and NOT val*/
   const double factor = 1.0/3.0;
   scanf("%lf",&value);
   result = pow(value,factor);
   printf("result is:%lf",result); //use printf insttead of print here since printf is used to print in java
   return 0;
}
