Write a C program that computes and prints the area of a rectangle given its length and width. Your program should contain and use the following functions: Description: prints the description of the program. This takes no argument and returns no value. Input: asks the user for an input value. This function returns the value asked from the user. ComputeArea: computes the area of the rectangle. This takes two arguments, length and width, and returns the computed area. Output: displays the input length and width and the computed area. This takes three arguments – length, width, and computed area – and returns no value.

Question

Write a C program that computes and prints the area of a rectangle given its length and width. Your program should contain and use the following functions:

  • Description: prints the description of the program. This takes no argument and returns no value.
  • Input: asks the user for an input value. This function returns the value asked from the user.
  • ComputeArea: computes the area of the rectangle. This takes two arguments, length and width, and returns the computed area.
  • Output: displays the input length and width and the computed area. This takes three arguments – length, width, and computed area – and returns no value.

 

The content of your main function should look like this:

 

int main() {

    int length, width, area;

 

    Description();

    length = Input(<supply necessary arguments>);

    width = Input(<supply necessary arguments>);

    area = ComputeArea(<supply necessary arguments>);

    Output(<supply necessary arguments>);

 

    return 0;

}

(Note: Please provide comments that clearly explain what each main section of the code is accomplishing and how)
