C PROGRAMMING LAB –14] Develop a program using pointers to compute the sum, mean, and standard deviation of all elements stored in an array of n real numbers.


C PROGRAMMING -Algorithm

  • Step-1: Start
  • Step-2: Read n
  • Step-3: For every value of n read the x
  • Step-4: Initialize sum=0 and i=0
  • Step-5: For every value of n and i, comuter sum using sum = sum + (*(x+i) – mean) * ( * ( x+i) – mean)
  • Step-6: Using the sum value computer variance = sum / n and deviation = sqrt ( variance )
  • Step-7: Display mean, variance, deviation
  • Step-8: Stop

Program -14 source code

#include<stdio.h>
#include<math.h>
int main()
{
int n , i;
float x[20],sum,mean;
float variance , deviation;
printf("Enter the value of n \n");
scanf("%d",&n);
printf("enter %d real values \n",n);
for (i=0;i<n;i++)
 {
 scanf("%f",(x+i));
 }
sum=0;
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
sum= sum+*(x+i);
}
printf("sum=%f\n",sum);
mean=sum/n;
sum=0;
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
{
sum=sum+(*(x+i)-mean)*(*(x+i)-mean);
}
variance=sum/n;
deviation=sqrt(variance);
printf("mean(Average)=%f\n",mean);
printf("variance=%f\n",variance);
printf("standard deviation=%f\n",deviation);
}

Output

Enter the value of n
