C Programming: Example C Program to Understand Functions

This C source code demonstrates the implementation of fundamental mathematical operations using functions in the C programming language. It includes functions for calculating the square of a number, reading user input, and determining the area of a rectangle. The main program showcases the usage of these functions with specific values, providing a practical example for beginners to understand basic C programming concepts.

Defensive Programming Techniques

This source code is from Thinking in C++, 2nd Edition, Volume 2, by Bruce Eckel & Chuck Allison. You can use Borland, G++ (For version 3 and above only), Microsoft (For C++ with .NET only) to compile and build this source code. Writing perfect software may be a daunting task for developers, but a few defensive techniques which are routinely applied can go a long way toward narrowing the gap between code and ideal. Defensive programming practices are often used where high availability of the application is required, safety if utmost concern, or security is needed for application to work.
