What is the output of given program if user enter "xyz" ?
#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
float age, AgeInSeconds;

printf("You have lived for %f seconds", AgeInSeconds);
}
#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
float age, AgeInSeconds;
printf("Enter your age:");
scanf("%f", &age);
AgeInSeconds = 365 * 24 * 60 * 60 * age;
printf("You have lived for %f seconds", AgeInSeconds);
}
A. Enter your age: xyz You have lived for 0 seconds
B. Enter your age: xyz You have lived for 0.00000 seconds
C. Enter your age: xyz "after that program will stop"
D. Run time error
Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
When we give scanf() a "%f" format string, that means "We want you to try and get us a floating point number. When we provide input like 'xyz', it's not going to match anything, because 'xyz' is not a valid floating-point number.
