What is %.2f? Why is it not just %f? Is there some additional calculation happening? The half function already does all the calculations including splitting the bill, so I’m not sure what %.2f is. (Btw why is this code not formatting correctly in lemmy?)
#include
#include
float half(float bill, float tax, int tip);
int main(void)
{
float bill_amount = get_float("Bill before tax and tip: ");
float tax_percent = get_float("Sale Tax Percent: ");
int tip_percent = get_int("Tip percent: ");
printf("You will owe $%.2f each!\n", half(bill_amount, tax_percent, tip_percent));
}
// TODO: Complete the function
float half(float bill, float tax, int tip)
{
bill += (bill * (tax / 100.0));
bill += (bill * (tip / 100.0));
bill /= 2;
return bill;
}


Yup that definitely does the same thing.
If anyone else is wondering why the
3is there, it’s because usually you won’t find just oneprintf. You have theprintfuser command, theprintffunction from the standard C library, and POSIX manual entries for both theprintfuser command and C function. The id number is then an identifier for the corresponding section of theprintfentry, and you can list all of them by doing aman -f printf.Nit: 3 is the manual section in which to look for the named entry (aka page), not a section of the entry.
Wrote it in an awkward way but yeah I meant to say the section where you can find the corresponding entry 😬
Awesome, I think I’m gonna consider aliasing
mantoman -flol. Can you think of any compelling reason not to?Actually, nevermind, I misunderstood you.
-fjust lists the pages, it doesn’t print all of their content.
