Method 1 (Recursive)
C
#include<stdio.h>
#define N 10
int main( int num)
{
if (num <= N && printf ("%d ", num) && main(num + 1))
{
}
}
|
Output:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
See this for complete run. Thanks to Utkarsh Trivedi for suggesting this solution.
Method 2 (Iterative)
C
#include<stdio.h>
#define N 10
int main( int num, char *argv[])
{
while (num <= N && printf ("%d ", num) && num++)
{
}
}
|
Output:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

How do these solutions work?
main() function can receive arguments. The first argument is argument count whose value is 1 if no argument is passed to it. The first argument is always program name.
C
#include<stdio.h>
int main( int num, char *argv[])
{
printf ("num = %d\n", num);
printf ("argv[0] = %s ", argv[0]);
}
|
Output:
num = 1
argv[0] = <file_name>
