Problem Statement

luc003.c

Paper of size AO has dimensions 1189 mm x 841 mm. Each subsequent size A(n) is defined as A(n-1) cut in half, parallel to its shorter sides. Thus, paper of size A1 would have dimensions 841 mm x 594 mm. Write a program to calculate and print paper sizes A0,� A1,�A2,�...�A8.

Source Code

#include<stdio.h>
#include<math.h>
int main() {
	double s_long = 1189.0, s_short = 841.0, temp;
	int i;
	printf("A0 Dimension : %g mm x %g mm", floor(s_long), floor(s_short));
	for (i = 1; i <= 8; i++) {
		temp = s_long;
		s_long = s_short;
		s_short = temp / 2;
		printf("\nA%d Dimension : %g mm x %g mm", i, floor(s_long), floor(s_short));
	}
	return 0;
}
