Description

Returning a value by passing three floating-point numbers and calculating the average.

Demo Code

#include <stdio.h>
float gradeAve(float test1, float test2, float test3);

int main()/*from   w  w  w  . j  a v a2  s. c  o m*/
{
    float grade1, grade2, grade3;
    float average;

    printf("What was the grade on the first test? ");
    scanf(" %f", &grade1);

    printf("What was the grade on the second test? ");
    scanf(" %f", &grade2);

    printf("What was the grade on the third test? ");
    scanf(" %f", &grade3);

    //Pass the three grades to the function and return the average
    average = gradeAve(grade1, grade2, grade3);

    printf("\nWith those three test scores, the average is %.2f",
            average);

    return 0;
}

float gradeAve(float test1, float test2, float test3){
    float localAverage;

    localAverage = (test1+test2+test3)/3;

    return (localAverage); // Returns the average to main
