PPS Assignment Problems
Topics: Functions, Pointers, Strings, Structures
1. Write a function that will find the sum of as many numbers as the user wants
to.
2. Greatest Common Divisor (GCD): Write a function int gcd(int a, int b)
that finds the greatest common divisor of two integers a and b.
3. Palindrome Checker: Write a function int is_palindrome(char str[])
that checks if a given string str is a palindrome (reads the same backward as
forward).
4. Prime Number Checker: Write a function int is_prime(int num) that
determines if a given number num is prime.
5. String Length (without using strlen): Write a function int
string_length(char str[]) to find the length of a string str (without using
the built-in strlen function).
6. Swap Two Numbers: Write a function void swap(int *x, int *y) that
swaps the values of two integers pointed to by x and y.
7. Array Sum with Pointers: Write a function int sum_array(int arr[], int
size) that calculates the sum of elements in an array arr of size size using
pointers.
8. Reverse an Array: Write a function void reverse_array(int arr[], int
size) that reverses the elements of an array arr of size size in-place using
pointers.
9. Find Maximum in an Array: Write a function int find_max(int arr[], int
size) that finds the maximum element in an array arr of size size using
pointers.
10. String Copy (without using strcpy): Write a function void
string_copy(char dest[], char src[]) that copies a source string src to
a destination string dest (without using the built-in strcpy function).
11. Count Vowels and Consonants: Write a program that counts the number of
vowels and consonants in a given string.
12. Extract Words from a String: Write a program that extracts individual words
from a string separated by delimiters (e.g., spaces, commas).
13. Replace Substring: Write a function void replace_substring(char str[],
char old_sub[], char new_sub[]) that replaces occurrences of a substring
old_sub in a string str with a new substring new_sub.
14. Convert String to Uppercase/Lowercase: Write functions void
to_uppercase(char str[]) and void to_lowercase(char str[]) to
convert a string str to uppercase and lowercase, respectively.
15. Check if String is a Substring of Another: Write a function int
is_substring(char str[], char sub[]) that checks if a string sub is a
substring of another string str.
16. Write a c program to find the position of the first occurrence of a given
character in a string.
17. Write a program to find occurrences of each character in a string.
18. Date Structure: Define a structure Date to hold day, month, and year. Write
functions to check if a date is valid and calculate the difference between two
dates.
19. Student Record: Create a structure Student to store student information
(name, roll number, marks in various subjects). Write functions to create,
display, and calculate the total marks for a student.
20. Date Structure: Create a structure to represent a date (day, month, year)
and functions to compare two dates, calculate the difference between dates,
and perform other date-related operations.
