C Programming Function Problems
Easy:
1. Sum of Two Numbers
Write a function sum(int a, int b) that takes two integers and returns their sum. Call this function from main and print the
result.
2. Factorial of a Number
Write a function int factorial(int n) that returns the factorial of a given number n. Test the function by printing the factorial
of numbers 1 to 5.
3. Maximum of Two Numbers
Write a function int max(int a, int b) that returns the maximum of two numbers. Use this function to find the maximum of
two numbers input by the user.
4. Check Even or Odd
Write a function int isEven(int n) that returns 1 if a number is even and 0 if it is odd. Use this function in main to check if
a given number is even or odd.

Intermediate:
5. Prime Number Check
Write a function int isPrime(int n) that returns 1 if a number is prime and 0 if it is not. Use this function to check whether
a given number is prime.
6. GCD of Two Numbers
Write a function int gcd(int a, int b) that returns the greatest common divisor of two numbers. Test this function with
different pairs of numbers.
7. Array Sum
Write a function int sumArray(int arr[], int size) that takes an array and its size as arguments and returns the sum of its
elements. Test the function with different arrays.
8. Fibonacci Sequence
Write a function int fibonacci(int n) that returns the nth Fibonacci number. Use this function to print the first 10 Fibonacci
numbers.
9. Swap Two Numbers Using Pointers
Write a function void swap(int *a, int *b) that swaps the values of two integers using pointers. Test this function by
swapping two numbers in main.
C Programming Function Problems
Advanced:
10. Recursive Power Function
Write a recursive function int power(int base, int exp) that returns the value of base raised to the power exp. Use this
function to compute 2^5, 3^4, etc.
11. Palindrome Check
Write a function int isPalindrome(int num) that checks if a given number is a palindrome (reads the same forwards and
backwards). Use this function to check if different numbers are palindromes.
12. Sorting an Array
Write a function void sortArray(int arr[], int size) that sorts an array of integers in ascending order using the Bubble Sort
algorithm. Test the function with different arrays.
13. Matrix Multiplication
Write a function void multiplyMatrices(int mat1[3][3], int mat2[3][3], int res[3][3]) that multiplies two 3x3 matrices and
stores the result in a third matrix. Print the result in main.
14. Binary Search
Write a function int binarySearch(int arr[], int size, int target) that implements the binary search algorithm to find the
position of a target element in a sorted array. If the element is not found, return -1.
15. Menu-Driven Program
Create a menu-driven program where the user can choose different operations (like sum, difference, product, quotient,
GCD, etc.) to be performed using functions. Implement each operation as a separate function.

Write a function void reverseString(char *str) that reverses a string in place using pointers. Test the function with various
strings.
17. N-Queens Problem
Write a function void solveNQueens(int n) that finds all possible solutions to the N-Queens problem using backtracking
and prints the results.
18. Tower of Hanoi
Write a recursive function void towerOfHanoi(int n, char from_rod, char to_rod, char aux_rod) to solve the Tower of
Hanoi puzzle. Print the sequence of moves needed to solve the puzzle.
19. Merge Sort
Write a function void mergeSort(int arr[], int l, int r) that implements the Merge Sort algorithm to sort an array of integers.
Test the function with different arrays.
20. Sudoku Solver
Write a function int solveSudoku(int grid[9][9]) that solves a given Sudoku puzzle using backtracking and prints the
solution.
