Question

An Amish farmer has determined that the number of cows he owns will double every year. He only has room on his farm for a certain number of cows. He would like you to write a program that will determine the number of years it will take to reach the maximum number of cows. The main function should prompt the user to enter two integer values; the current number of cows and the maximum number of cows. These values should be passed by value to a function called maxCows. The maxCows function will contain a loop that will double the number of cows until the maximum number of cows is reached, displaying the number of cows with each iteration of the loop. The maxCows function will return the number of years that it took to reach maximum cow capacity to the main function, where that value will be displayed to the user.

WRITE A C PROGRAM PLEASE

Answer 1

Answer: here is the answer for your question :

CODE IN C:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
void maxCows(int c_cows, int max_cows)
{
int years=0;
while(c_cows*2<=max_cows)
{
c_cows=c_cows*2;
years++;
printf("In year %d , number of cows is %d \n",years,c_cows);
}
printf("maximum number of cows will be reached in %d years",years);
}

int main(void)
{
int current_cows=0;
int max_capacity;
printf("Enter the current cows that you have: ");
scanf("%d",&current_cows);
printf("Enter the maximum capacity : ");
scanf("%d",&max_capacity);
maxCows(current_cows,max_capacity);

return 0;
}
