Answer:
<h2>Function 1:</h2>#include <stdio.h> //for using input output functions
// start of the function PrintPopcornTime body having integer variable //bagOunces as parameter
void PrintPopcornTime(int bagOunces){
if (bagOunces < 3){ //if value of bagOunces is less than 3
printf("Too small"); //displays Too small message in output
printf("\n"); } //prints a new line
//the following else if part will execute when the above IF condition evaluates to //false and the value of bagOunces is greater than 10
else if (bagOunces > 10){
printf("Too large"); //displays the message: Too large in output
printf("\n"); //prints a new line }
/*the following else part will execute when the above If and else if conditions evaluate to false and the value of bagOunces is neither less than 3 nor greater than 10 */
else {
/* The following three commented statements can be used to store the value of bagOunces * 6 into result variable and then print statement to print the value of result. The other option is to use one print statement printf("%d",bagOunces * 6) instead */
//int result;
//result = bagOunces * 6;
//printf("%d",result);
printf("%d",bagOunces * 6); /multiplies value of bagOunces to 6
printf(" seconds");
// seconds is followed with the value of bagOunces * 6
printf("\n"); }} //prints a new line
int main(){ //start of main() function body
int userOunces; //declares integer variable userOunces
scanf("%d", &userOunces); //reads input value of userOunces
PrintPopcornTime(userOunces);
//calls PrintPopcornTime function passing the value in userOunces
return 0; }
Explanation:
<h2>Function 2: </h2>#include <stdio.h> //header file to use input output functions
// start of the function PrintShampooInstructions body having integer variable numCycles as parameter
void PrintShampooInstructions(int numCycles){
if(numCycles < 1){
//if conditions checks value of numCycles is less than 1 or not
printf("Too few."); //prints Too few in output if the above condition is true
printf("\n"); } //prints a new line
//else if part is executed when the if condition is false and else if checks //value of numCycles is greater than 4 or not
else if(numCycles > 4){
//prints Too many in output if the above condition is true
printf("Too many.");
printf("\n"); } //prints a new line
//else part is executed when the if and else if conditions are false
else{
//prints "N: Lather and rinse." numCycles times, where N is the cycle //number, followed by Done
for(int N = 1; N <= numCycles; N++){
printf("%d",N);
printf(": Lather and rinse. \n");}
printf("Done.");
printf("\n");} }
int main() //start of the main() function body
{ int userCycles; //declares integer variable userCycles
scanf("%d", &userCycles); //reads the input value into userCycles
PrintShampooInstructions(userCycles);
//calls PrintShampooInstructions function passing the value in userCycles
return 0;}
I will explain the for loop used in PrintShampooInstructions() function. The loop has a variableN which is initialized to 1. The loop checks if the value of N is less than or equal to the value of numCycles. Lets say the value of numCycles = 2. So the condition evaluates to true as N<numCycles which means 1<2. So the program control enters the body of loop. The loop body has following statements. printf("%d",N); prints the value of N followed by
printf(": Lather and rinse. \n"); which is followed by printf("Done.");
So at first iteration:
printf("%d",N); prints 1 as the value of N is 1
printf(": Lather and rinse. \n"); prints : Lather and rinse and prints a new line \n.
As a whole this line is printed on the screen:
1: Lather and rinse.
Then the value of N is incremented by 1. So N becomes 2 i.e. N = 2.
Now at second iteration:
The loop checks if the value of N is less than or equal to the value of numCycles. We know that the value of numCycles = 2. So the condition evaluates to true as N<numCycles which means 2=2. So the program control enters the body of loop.
printf("Done."); prints Done after the above two lines.
printf("%d",N); prints 2 as the value of N is 2
printf(": Lather and rinse. \n"); prints : Lather and rinse and prints a new line \n.
As a whole this line is printed on the screen:
2: Lather and rinse.
Then the value of N is incremented by 1. So N becomes 2 i.e. N = 3.
The loop again checks if the value of N is less than or equal to the value of numCycles. We know that the value of numCycles = 2. So the condition evaluates to false as N<numCycles which means 3>2. So the loop breaks.
Now the next statement is:
printf("Done."); which prints Done on the screen.
So as a whole the following output is displayed on the screen:
1: Lather and rinse.
2: Lather and rinse.
Done.
The programs along with their outputs are attached.
