Question

Write a C program that reads an integer value. Assume it is the number of a month of the year; print out the name of that month (Hint: months need to be captured in an array).

Answer 1

Implement theprogram as follows:

1. declare month_num to store month number
2. declare 2-dimensional array to store month names, array index starts from 0. months[0] returns "January" and months[11] returns "December".
3. ask the user to enter a month number
4. read number from user
5. Print month name corresponding to month_num as months[month_num-1]

Program:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    int month_num;                              /* declare month_num to store month number */
    char months[12][20] = {                     /* declare 2-dimensional array to store month names */
        "January", "February",
        "March", "April", 
        "May", "June",
        "July", "August",
        "September", "October",
        "November", "December"
    };
    
    printf("Enter the number of a month : ");   /* ask the user to enter a month number */
    scanf("%d", &month_num);                    /* read number from user */
    
    
    printf("Month : %s", months[month_num-1]);  /* Print month name corresponding to month_num */
    

    return 0;
}
