Write a program which reads a positive integer number n, calculates and shows the following:
- $$1 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{4} + ... + \frac{1}{n}$$ if $$n$$ is divisible by 7
- $$n + \frac{n}{2} + \frac{n}{3} + \frac{n}{4} + ... + \frac{n}{n-1} + 1$$ otherwise
Difficulty level
This exercise is mostly suitable for students
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int n, i;
double sum;
sum =0;
do{
printf("Enter n: ");
scanf("%d",&n);
}while(n<0);
if(n%7==0)
{
for(i=1;i<=n;i++)
sum+= 1.0/i;
}
else
{
for(i=1;i<=n;i++)
sum+= 1.0*n/i;
}
printf("Sum = %.4lf\n",sum);
return 0;
}
