C Program To Accept A Character And Determine Whether Its Number, Alphabet Or Symbol.

Q18. Write a C program to accept a character and determine whether its number, alphabet or symbol.

Solution:

#include<stdio.h> //standard input/output header file

#include<conio.h> //for clrscr()

 

int main()

{

char a;

 

clrscr(); //for clearing the screen

 

printf(“\n Enter any character: “);

scanf(“%c”,&a);

 

a>=65&&a<=90||a>=97&&a<=122?printf(“\n It is an alphabet.”) : a>=48&&a<=57?printf(“\n It is a number.”):printf(“\n It is a symbol.”);

 

getch(); //holds the screen until any key is pressed

return 0; //makes main() finish

}

Enter any character: d

 

It is an alphabet.
