Laboratory 4
Title of the Laboratory Exercise: Functions and Recursion
1. Introduction and Purpose of Experiment
A function serves as an abstraction mechanism to view many things as one thing. The
function definition specifies the name of a new function and the sequence of statements
that execute when the function is called. Once a function is defined, it can be called as many
times as required. By solving these problems, students will be able to create user defined
functions. A recursive function solves a particular problem by calling a copy of itself and
solving smaller sub-problems of the original problems.

2. Aim and Objectives

Aim
To develop programs using user defined functions
Objectives
At the end of this lab, the student will be able to
Apply user defined functions and concept of recursions with proper definition

Laboratory 5
Title of the Laboratory Exercise: Pointers

1. Introduction and Purpose of Experiment

A pointer is defined as a derived data type that can store the address of other C variables or
a memory location. We can access and manipulate the data stored in that memory location
using pointers. As the pointers in C store the memory addresses, their size is independent of
the type of data they are pointing to.
