What will be the output of the program?
#include<stdio.h>
int sumdig(int);
int main()
{
    int a, b;
    a = sumdig(123);
    b = sumdig(123);
    printf("%d, %d\n", a, b);
    return 0;
}
int sumdig(int n)
{
    int s, d;
    if(n!=0)
    {
        d = n%10;
        n = n/10;
        s = d+sumdig(n);
    }
    else
        return 0;
    return s;
}

In the above program, they mention printf only once after performing sumdig functions. Therefore, the program prints the output values of sumdig values only.

step 1: d=123%10==3
n=123/10==12
s=3+sumdig(12)since n==12.
step 2: d=12%10==2
n=12/10==1
s=5(since 3+2)+sumdig(1).
step 3: d=1%10==1
n=n/10==0
s=5+1==6
so s==6.

@Taher Ali.

Awesome solution. It works for (- and *).

@Vivek.

The same logic can't be applied for (d*sumdig(n));

Answer for this (0,0) and (d-(sumdig(n));answer for this (2,2).

How comes the value of s=3+2+1,6?

Please explain, & clear it.

Super @Vivek, your approach is nice.

But in the program, there is no while loop simple if condition is given. Then how it works?

If I take 1234 as an input I want 234 as an output. How can I do it?
