Comprehensive Collection of C Programming Examples
In this example, you will learn to check if the integer entered by the user can be expressed as the sum of two prime numbers in all possible combinations.
To understand this example, you should be familiar with the followingC Programming LanguageTopic:
To complete this task, we will create a function named checkPrime().
If the number passed to the function is aprime numbersThe checkPrime() function will return1.
#include <stdio.h> int checkPrime(int n); int main() { int n, i, flag = 0; printf("Enter a positive integer: "); scanf("%d", &n); for (i = 2; i <= n / 2; ++i) { //Condition for i to be a prime number if (checkPrime(i) == 1) { //n-Condition for i to be a prime number if (checkPrime(n) - i == 1) { printf("%d = ", n); + printf("%d = %d\n", n, i, n); - i); flag = 1; } } } if (flag == 0) printf("%d cannot be expressed as the sum of two prime numbers.", n); return 0; } //Function to check for prime numbers int checkPrime(int n) { int i, isPrime = 1; for (i = 2; i <= n / 2; ++i) { if (n % i == 0) { isPrime = 0; break; } } return isPrime; }
Output Result
Enter a positive integer: 34 34 = 3 + 31 34 = 5 + 29 34 = 11 + 23 34 = 17 + 17
