Read or watch:
- Nested while loops
- C - Functions
- Learning to Program in C (Part 06) (stop at 14:00)
- What is a function prototype (read only the “Function prototype paragraph”)
- What is the purpose of a function prototype?
- C - Header Files (stop before the “Once-Only Headers” paragraph)
At the end of this project, you are expected to be able to explain to anyone, without the help of Google:
- What are nested loops and how to use them
- What is a function and how do you use functions
- What is the difference between a declaration and a definition of a function
- What is a prototype
- Scope of variables
- What are the gcc flags -Wall -Werror -pedantic -Wextra -std=gnu89
- What are header files and how to to use them with #include
- Allowed editors: {vi, vim, emacs}
- All your files will be compiled on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS using gcc, using the options
-Wall -Werror -Wextra -pedantic -std=gnu89
- All your files should end with a new line
- A
README.md
file, at the root of the folder of the project is mandatory - Your code should use the
Betty
style. It will be checked using betty-style.pl and betty-doc.pl - You are not allowed to use global variables
- No more than 5 functions per file
- You are not allowed to use the standard library. Any use of functions like printf, puts, etc… is forbidden
- You are allowed to use _putchar
- You don’t have to push _putchar.c, we will use our file. If you do it won’t be taken into account
- In the following examples, the
main.c
files are shown as examples. You can use them to test your functions, but you don’t have to push them to your repo (if you do we won’t take them into account). We will use our ownmain.c
files at compilation. Ourmain.c
files might be different from the one shown in the examples - The prototypes of all your functions and the prototype of the function _putchar should be included in your header file called
main.h
- Don’t forget to push your header file
You do not have to understand the call by reference (address), stack, static variables, recursions or arrays, yet.

int _isupper(int c);

If we list all the natural numbers below 10 that are multiples of 3 or 5, we get 3, 5, 6 and 9. The sum of these multiples is 23. Write a program that computes and prints the sum of all the multiples of 3 or 5 below 1024 (excluded), followed by a new line.

14. In computer class, the first assignment was to write a program to print the first 100 Fibonacci numbers. Instead, I wrote a program that would steal passwords of students. My teacher gave me an A
Write a program that prints the first 50 Fibonacci numbers, starting with 1 and 2, followed by a new line.

Each new term in the Fibonacci sequence is generated by adding the previous two terms. By starting with 1 and 2, the first 10 terms will be: 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89. By considering the terms in the Fibonacci sequence whose values do not exceed 4,000,000, write a program that finds and prints the sum of the even-valued terms, followed by a new line.
