|
Explanation of above program : |
|
# is the preprocessor directive which commands that the content of file should be included at the time of compilation. |
|
< stdio.h> is the header file which contains all input and output functions like scanf(), printf() which are frequently used in c programs. |

main() is the first function which is executed by a C program. |
|
1. int a,r=5; -> This statement declares 2 variables a and r of type integer and r has been assigned a value of 5. |
|
2. const pi=3.14; -> This statement declares pi as constant and value 3.14 has been assigned to it. |
|
3. a = pi * r *r; -> This statement computes the area of circle and assign it to variable a |
|
4. printf("%f",a); -> This statement prints the area of circle using printf function. |
|
5. getch(); -> It is used to get character from user. |
