C Program: Volume of a Cuboid

Introduction

A cuboid is a 3D solid shape with six rectangular faces. Examples in real life include books, boxes, and bricks.

The volume of a cuboid represents the total space it occupies.
The formula is:

Volume = l × w × h

where

• l = length
• w = width (breadth)
• h = height

C Program: Volume of a Cuboid

#include <stdio.h>
 
int main() {
    float length, width, height, volume;
 
    // Input dimensions
    printf("Enter length of the cuboid: ");
    scanf("%f", &length);
 
    printf("Enter width of the cuboid: ");
    scanf("%f", &width);
 
    printf("Enter height of the cuboid: ");
    scanf("%f", &height);
 
    // Calculate volume
    volume = length * width * height;
 
    // Display result
    printf("Volume of Cuboid = %.2f\n", volume);
 
    return 0;
}
   
 

 
OUTPUT 1 :
Enter length of the cuboid: 10
Enter width of the cuboid: 5
Enter height of the cuboid: 4
Volume of Cuboid = 200.00


OUTPUT 2 :
Enter length of the cuboid: 7.2
Enter width of the cuboid: 3.5
Enter height of the cuboid: 2.5
Volume of Cuboid = 63.00

Explanation

1. The program asks the user to input length, width, and height.
2. It applies the formula l × w × h.
3. The result is displayed with two decimal places.
