Percentage

Percentage
In this post, we will learn about percentage.

Percentage 

  • One percent (1%) means 1 per 100. 
  • Fifty percent (50%) means half of total.
  • Hundred percent (100%) means full or 100 out of 100 or 1000 out of 1000.
  • Two hundred  percent (200%) means twice of original. for example if your salary is 12 Lakh and change your job and you salary become 36 Lakh in this case you salary increased by (36 - 12) = 24 Lakh means twice of original means your salary increased by 200 %.  

Calculate Percentage

Example: Calculate 25% of 80
 100% of 80 = 80  
 1% of 80 = (80/100)  
 25% of 80 = (80/100)x25
Shortcut: X percentage of Y = (Y x X)/100 
If only 10 of the 200 apples are bad, what percent is that?
 In 200 apple 10 are bad  
 In 1 apple (10/200) will be bad  
 In 100 apple (10/200)x100 = 5% will be be bad
Shortcut: X is k percentage of Y means X = (k*y)/100

OFFSET in Computer Science

OFFSET in Computer Science In the post, We will understand what is the meaning of OFFSET in computer science with an example. In computer science offset comes picture at may place like packing a data structure, encoding the data etc in some standard protocol so that other parties can deserialise it and understand the data. We will understand its important how does it work with example. suppose we have a data structure for a student like { name:string[20] roll: int[4] course: string[25] batch: int[4] } We want to serialise below student data  { name:"Amit Gupta" roll: 1234 course:Computer Science" batch: 2018 } Our protocol follow the rule that we will insert a value and if space will remain empty we will fill it with $ for example length of "Amit Gupta" is 10 but standard size is 20 so will fill 10 $ after "Amit Gupta". So serialisation of above data will be Amit Gupta$$$$$$$$$$1234Computer Sc...

Pointer In C Programming Language

Pointer In C Programming Language In this post, We will learn about pointer in C programming language. Introduction Pointers in C programming language is a variable that stores the memory address of another variable. A pointer in C is used to allocate memory dynamically i.e. at runtime. The pointer variable might be belonging to any of the data types such as int, float, char, double, short etc. Important Points About Pointer in C: Pointer stores the address of a variable whereas a normal variable stores the value.   The content of the C pointer always be a whole number i.e. address. Default C pointer is initialized to null, i.e. int *p = null. The value of the null pointer is 0. & symbol is used to get the address of the variable. * symbol is used to get the value of the variable that the pointer is pointing to. If a pointer in C is assigned to NULL, it means it is pointing to nothing. Two pointers can be subtracted to know how many elements are available...
