Given a number N, the task is to find the middle digit of the given number N. If the number has two middle digits then print the first middle digit.

Examples:  

Input: N = 12345 
Output: 3

Input: N = 98562 
Output: 5  

Approach: The middle digit of any number N can be given by 

\left ( \frac{N}{10^{\frac{len}{2}}} \right )\ mod 10

The length(len) of the given Number can be calculated as 
\left ( \log_{10} N \right ) + 1

For example:  

If N = 12345 
len = (int)log10(12345) + 1 = 5 
Therefore, 
First half of N = N/105/2 = N/102 = 123 
Therefore middle digit of N = last digit of First half of N = (First half of N) % 10 = 123 % 10 = 3 

Below code is the implementation of the above approach: 

C++

// Program to find middle digit of number
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to find the middle digit
int middleDigit(int n)
{
    // Find total number of digits
    int digits = (int)log10(n) + 1;
 
    // Find middle digit
    n = (int)(n / pow(10, digits / 2))
        % 10;
 
    // Return middle digit
    return n;
}
 
// Driver program
int main()
{
    // Given Number N
    int N = 98562;
 
    // Function call
    cout << middleDigit(N)
         << "\n";
    return 0;
}

                    

Java

// Java program to find middle digit of number
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
class GFG{
 
// Function to find the middle digit
static int middleDigit(int n)
{
     
    // Find total number of digits
    int digits = (int)Math.log10(n) + 1;
 
    // Find middle digit
    n = (int)(n / Math.pow(10, digits / 2)) % 10;
 
    // Return middle digit
    return n;
}
 
// Driver Code
public static void main(String[] args)
{
     
    // Given number N
    int N = 98562;
 
    // Function call
    System.out.println(middleDigit(N));
}
}

    # Return middle digit
    return n;
 
# Driver program
