    <p>I have to write a program in which main calls other functions that test a series of number if any are less than a number, if all the series' numbers are between two limits, and if any are negative. My code returns the values of 1 for true and 0 for false, but the assignment asks that they be printed as 'true' or 'false'. I'm not sure how to get the bool answers to print as a string from printf. I used if (atl == false) printf("false"); in my at_least.c and in main.c, but it returns only a long string of true or false (ex: truetruetrue....). I'm not sure if that is the correct coding and I'm putting it in the wrong spot or there was some other code that I need to use.</p> <p>This is my main.c:</p> <pre><code>#include "my.h" int main (void) { int x; int count = 0; int sum = 0; double average = 0.0; int largest = INT_MIN; int smallest = INT_MAX; bool atlst = false; bool bet = true; bool neg = false; int end; while ((end = scanf("%d",&amp;x)) != EOF) { sumall(x, &amp;sum); //calling function sumall count++; larger_smaller(x, &amp;largest, &amp;smallest); //calling function larger_smaller if (atlst == false) at_least(x, &amp;atlst); //calling function at_least if x &lt; 50 if (bet == true) between(x, &amp;bet); //calling function between if x is between 30 and 40 (inclusive) if (neg == false) negative(x, &amp;neg); //calling function negative if x &lt; 0 } average = (double) sum / count; print(count, sum, average, largest, smallest, atlst, bet, neg); return; } </code></pre> <p>my results for a set of numbers:</p> <pre><code>The number of integers is: 15 The sum is : 3844 The average is : 256.27 The largest is : 987 The smallest is : -28 At least one is &lt; 50 : 1 //This needs to be true All between 30 and 40 : 0 //This needs to be false At least one is negative : 1 //This needs to be true </code></pre> <p>This is in C, which I can't seem to find much on.</p> <p>Thanks in advance for your help!</p> <p>ADDENDUM:</p> <p>This is repeated from an answer below.</p> <p>This worked for the at_least and negative functions, but not for the between function. I have </p> <pre><code>void between(int x, bool* bet) { if (x &gt;= LOWER &amp;&amp; x &lt;= UPPER) *bet = false; return; } </code></pre> <p>as my code. I'm not sure what's wrong.</p>

    1. COJust a side note, `x == true` is redundant in a Boolean expression; you can just say `x`. Similarly, `x == false` is just `!x`.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
