Difficulty level
This exercise is mostly suitable for students
#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>
int sum(int lowerLimit, int upperLimit)
{
if (lowerLimit > upperLimit)
return 0;
if (lowerLimit <= upperLimit)
{
if (!lowerLimit % 2)
return sum(lowerLimit + 1, upperLimit);
else
{
return lowerLimit + sum(lowerLimit + 2, upperLimit);
}
}
}
void main()
{
int lowerLimit, upperLimit;
printf("Enter the lower limit: ");
scanf("%d", &lowerLimit);
printf("Enter the upper limit: ");
scanf("%d", &upperLimit);
printf("Sum of Odd integers from %d to %d are the following = %d ", lowerLimit, upperLimit, sum(lowerLimit, upperLimit));
getch();
}
