Natural Numbers Program using C

Method 2: Using While Loop

In this method, we will take a while loop and iterate a variable i from 1 to the user entered limit n by incrementing by 1 through every loop. Then, inside the loop we will print each number(i) up to n.

#include<stdio.h>
void main() {
int n=7;
int i=1;
while(i<=n){
printf("%d ", i);
i++;
}
printf("\n");
}

Output

Method 3: Using Do-while Loop

In this method, we will take a do while loop and iterate a variable i from 1 to the user entered limit n by incrementing by 1 through every loop. Then, inside the loop we will print each number(i) up to n.

#include<stdio.h>
void main() {
int n=17;
int i=1;
do{
printf("%d ", i);
i++;
}while(i<=n);
printf("\n");
}

Run Code

Output

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17

You can practice by yourself with the help of an online C compiler.

Time Complexity: O(N) for all the codes because we have used only one loop for printing the numbers

Space Complexity: O(1)

FAQs

1. What is a natural number in C?
   Natural Numbers are non-negative whole numbers starting from 1, i.e. a set of positive integers {1,2,3,....................... so on}. Natural numbers are used for counting or ordering.
    
2. How can we print natural numbers in C?
   The user enters a number n. We take a loop from 1 to n, and print all the numbers one by one.
    
3. Which loops can be used to print natural numbers in C?
   All the looping statements like for, while and do-while can be used to print all the natural numbers upto n in C.
