How to write a C Program to Print Day Name of Week using Else If statement, and Switch Condition with examples.
C Program to Print Day Name of Week using Else If
This C program will ask the user to enter any number between 1 to 7, where 1 is Monday, 2 is Tuesday, 3 = Wednesday, 4 = Thursday, 5 = Friday, 6 = Saturday, and 7 = Sunday. Based on the user entered integer value this program will print the day name.
To accomplish this goal, we are using C Else If Statement. But, we strongly recommend the Switch Case approach, which we explained in the second example.
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int weekday;
printf(" Please Enter the Day Number 1 to 7 (Consider 1= Monday, and 7 = Sunday) : ");
scanf("%d", &weekday);
if (weekday == 1)
{
printf("\n Today is Monday");
}
else if ( weekday == 2 )
{
printf("\n Today is Tuesday");
}
else if ( weekday == 3 )
{
printf("\n Today is Wednesday");
}
else if ( weekday == 4 )
{
printf("\n Today is Thursday");
}
else if ( weekday == 5 )
{
printf("\n Today is Friday");
}
else if ( weekday == 6 )
{
printf("\n Today is Saturday");
}
else if ( weekday == 7 )
{
printf("\n Today is Sunday");
}
else
printf("\n Please enter Valid Number between 1 to 7");
return 0;
}
Please Enter the Day Number 1 to 7 (Consider 1= Monday, and 7 = Sunday) : 5
Today is FridayLet m enter the value other than 1 to 7 (something like 12)
Please Enter the Day Number 1 to 7 (Consider 1= Monday, and 7 = Sunday) : 12
Please enter Valid Number between 1 to 7C Program to return Day Name of Week using Switch Condition
It is an ideal C Programming approach to deal with multiple conditions. In this C program, we are using the C Switch Case approach.
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int weekday;
printf(" Please Enter the Day Number 1 to 7 (Consider 1= Monday, and 7 = Sunday) : ");
scanf("%d", &weekday);
switch (weekday)
{
case 1:
printf("\n Today is Monday");
break;
case 2:
printf("\n Today is Tuesday");
break;
case 3:
printf("\n Today is Wednesday");
break;
case 4:
printf("\n Today is Thursday");
break;
case 5:
printf("\n Today is Friday");
break;
case 6:
printf("\n Today is Saturday");
break;
case 7:
printf("\n Today is Sunday");
break;
default:
printf("\n Please enter Valid Number between 1 to 7");
}
return 0;
}
Let me try the value outside 1 to 7 (25)
Please Enter the Day Number 1 to 7 (Consider 1= Monday, and 7 = Sunday) : 25
Please enter Valid Number between 1 to 7Also Read
