how to swap 2 numbers in a single statement?
I use turbo C which allocates 2 bytes for integers and 4 bytes for long. I tried to declare array of size 500000 of long type using the following code... long *arr; arr=(long *)(malloc)(500000 * sizeof(long)); It gives a warning that "Conversion may lose significant digits in function main"... And the resulting array size was very less around 8400 as compared to 500000. Any suggestions will be welcomed....
Write a program which calculate sum of several number and input it into an array. Then, the sum of all the number in the array is calculated.
