printf("enter the second number: "); ............................................request user second number input

scanf("%d",&num2); .............................store the inputted number.

result=num1+num2; ..................................calculates the sum of num1 and num2

printf("the sum of %d and %d is: %d\n",num1, num2, result); ................................outputs the result of the 2 numbers entered by the user.

return result; ......................................... .........................returns the result of the sum to the calling function.

int num1, num2, result; ....................................these are variables for storage in the difference function.

printf("enter the first number: "); ..............................prompts the user to enter the first number.

scanf("%d",&num1); .....................................................takes and stores the imputed number above as num.

printf("enter the second number: "); ...........................................prompts the user to enter the second number.

scanf("%d",&num2); .............................................................................stores the inputted number above as num2

result=num1-num2; ....................................................................actual operation of the function(subtracts num2 from num1).

printf("the difference of %d and %d is:%d\n",num1, num2, result); ......this displays the result due difference function.

return result; ..................................................................................returns the result of the difference to the calling function.

int product(){ ....................................................................definition of the product function

int num1, num2, result; .............................................................................................variables for storage in the product function.

printf ("enter the first number: "); ......................................................................prompts the user to enter the first number.

scanf("%d”, &num1); ...................................................................................................stores the entered number as num1

printf("enter the second number: "); ........................................................................prompts the user to enter the second number.

scanf("%d",&num2); ...............................................................................................stores the second number as num2.

result=num1 * num2; ........................................................................indicates the multiplication of num1 with num2 as a result

printf("the product of %d and %d is:%d\n", num1, num2, result); ................. displays the result of the multiplication of the two numbers.

return result; .................................................................................................................returns the result of product to calling function.

int division () { .......................................................................................................................definition of division function

int num1, num2, result; ................................................................................................variables for storage in the division function

printf("enter the first number: "); ............................................................................prompts the user to enter the second number

scanf("%d",&num1); ..................................................................................................stores the first number as num1

printf("enter the second number: "); ...........................................................................prompts the user to enter the second number

scanf("%d",&num2); .................................................................................................................stores the second number as num2

result=num1/num2; ...........................................................................................indicates the division of num1 by num2 as a result

MESHEK KIPCHIRCHIR COM/M/0105/2024

printf("the division of %d by %d is : %d\n", num1, num2, result ); ...........................outputs the result of the division function

return result; ...............................................................................................returns the result of division to the calling function.

int square (){ ......................................................................................................definition of the square function.

int num1, result; .....................................................................................variables for storage in the square function.

printf("enter the number to square: "); ........................................................prompts the user the enter the number to be squared

scanf("%d",&num1); ..........................................................................................stores the number as num1

result= num1 * num1; .................................indicates that the square of a number is the product of itself and store it as result.

printf ("the square of %d is : %d\n", num1, result); ............................................................outputs the result of the squared number

return result; .................................................................................................returns the result of square to the calling function

int main() { ............................................................................................................................this defines the main function.

int choice, result; ............................................................................................................variables for storage in the main function

while(1){ ........................................................................THIS IS A LOOP FUNCTION

printf("THIS IS A SIMPLE CALCULATOR IN C \n"); ..................this displays that its is a simple calculator that is running

printf("Available operations\n"); ...................................................display of a line that introduces the defined functions available.

printf("1. sum\n");

printf("2. product\n");

printf("3. division\n"); .................................displays the available functions.

printf("4. difference\n");

printf("5. square\n");

printf(“6. Exit\n”);

printf("choose one of the above functions 1-5: "); .........................prompts the user to chose the number of function to operate on.

scanf("%d",&choice); ................................................................................stores the number of function the user chose.

if( choice== 1 ){

result= sum ();

}else if( choice== 2){

result= product();

}else if( choice == 3){ this tells the program that if the user chose 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 then he/she means to operate

result= division(); on sum, product, division, difference or square, respectively

}else if ( choice==4){

result=difference();

}else if (choice==5){

result=square();

}else if(choice==6){

print (“exiting program, goodbye.”)

break; ............................................................TERMINATES THE PROGRAM WHEN THE USER CHOOSES TO EXIT

}else{ if the user enters anything else apart from number 1 to 5 for the functions,

printf("invalid function"); then it will display that the function is invalid.

return 0; .........................................................indicates that the program has successfully completed its execution
