C Exercises: Get the absolute difference between n and 51

C-programming basic algorithm: Exercise-2 with Solution

Write a C program to get the absolute difference between n and 51. If n is greater than 51 return triple the absolute difference.

C Code:

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void){
    printf("%d",test(53));
    printf("\n%d",test(30));
    printf("\n%d",test(51));
    }
    
   int test(int n)
        {
         const int x = 51;

            if (n > x)
            {
                return (n - x)*3;
            }
            return x - n;
        }

Previous: Write a C program to compute the sum of the two given integer values. If the two values are the same, then return triple their sum.
Next: Write a C program to check two given integers, and return true if one of them is 30 or if their sum is 30.
