Need Help from u friends...

[SanjaiGandhi]

Hi ...i am new to programing....pls help to overcome this program..

The Program is..:

if a = 557..using for loop or while or dowhile ..we have to get the
answer for 5+5+7..that is what ever numbers we entered to a..that
should be added..
for eg if a = 34 the answe should be 7 that is 3+4
using % and / we can solve this problem..pls help me to get the
problems

What have you tried so far? Show us your best-effort code, and we'll
help you fix it.

The best way to stop being ignorant is to start learning. Learn, first,
that nobody else will do this for you. You must make the effort
yourself. Try. If you are not prepared to try to solve this yourself,
why should anyone else be prepared to do it for you?

pls guide me to solve this program...

Step 1: capture some input in string form
Step 2: convert it to an unsigned long int (not because it's necessary
but because your teacher wants you to - this would actually be easier
to do if you didn't convert it to a number)
Step 3: do the necessary processing
Step 4: print the result
Step 5: quit

Write it in C. When it breaks, show us your C and ask us to help, and we
will. But you need to be the one who writes the program, not us.

>>>Sir..i said i am a learner..i asked for the guidelines for solving this problem that is i asked only to guide not asked anyone else to prepared it for me...i know that i should take effort..sir there is lot of difference between guiding and to solve the problem for others...so i didnt asked for the solution of the problem..i asked only for the guiding...anyway thanks for ur wonderfull answers to the beginners....thanks a lot...

How did you manage to mess up your post's format like that?

Your C textbook should have hints on how to tackle this problem. As
you've yourself requested, no one has given you ready to use code.
You've been advised to come up with a first attempt, however bad it
is. Then we can start to help you. In programming, there's nothing
like analysing a problem yourself. It's even better than looking at
other people's solutions, though that has it's value too.

PS. In most cases, you shouldn't quote sigs.

You've been given a good hint about what to do:
Use % and / operators. If I were you, I'd write a
simple program to experiment with them and see what
they do.

E.g.

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void)
{
unsigned int i = 12345;
printf("%u\n", i % 10);
printf("%u\n", i / 10);
/* etc */
return 0;
}

Hopefully you already know how to make a C program
add numbers together.

OK Sanjai, study this solution if you want a challenge.

C:\>type sanjai.c

#include <stdio.h>
int main(int i, char **p)
{
for(*p = p[1]; **p; ++*p) i += **p - '0';
printf("%d\n", i - 2);
return 0;
}

C:\>gcc -ansi -pedantic -Wall -W -O2 sanjai.c

C:\>a 557
17

C:\>a 34
7

Note that it has 'undefined behaviour' and will probably crash if you
leave out the argument when you run the program. If you enter some
non-digit characters it will affect the value printed. If you enter too
many characters you may overflow the int variable. Can you fix all these
problems and make a robust solution?

Question for regulars: Is the modification of argv[0] allowed in
standard C? If not, this code needs some simple changes.

You can modify the string that argv[0] points to. You may not lengthen
it, however, and nor may you point argv[0] to some other location.
