I wrote a code in C to find the odd numbers from a given interval of min and max number. The function works well when it is inside the int main() but not well when outside the program as a function.
What's more is that it also prints the incremented number outside the max number given.
This is the code...
#include <stdio.h>
// My Function
int odd_numbers(int x, int y) {
for (int i = x; i <= y; ++i) {
if (i % 2 == 1) {
printf("%d\n",i);
}
}
}
// Main Program
int main(void) {
int min_num, max_num;
printf("Input your minimum number: ");
scanf("%d", &min_num);
printf("Input your maximum number: ");
scanf("%d", &max_num);
printf("%d",odd_numbers(min_num,max_num));
}
and this is the output... As you can see, it adds an 11 besides the 9... How can I solve this? I've tried return 0; and it returns the value 0 but i only want to return no number except the odd numbers.
Here is the working code.
Notes
Change the return type of odd_numbers
from int to void because you are not returning anything when the function is called.
Only call the function odd_numbers
, no need to printf anything because odd_numbers
already does the job.
#include <stdio.h>
// My Function
void odd_numbers(int x, int y) {
for (int i = x; i <= y; i++) {
if (i % 2 != 0) {
printf("\n%d",i);
}
}
}
// Main Program
int main(void) {
int min_num, max_num;
printf("Input your minimum number: ");
scanf("%d", &min_num);
printf("Input your maximum number: ");
scanf("%d", &max_num);
odd_numbers(min_num,max_num);
}
