C Program to Find the Unit Digit of a Number

C program to find the unit digit of a number has been shown here. The unit digit of a number is also referred to as the last digit. In the decimal number system, we can determine the unit digit by dividing the number by 10 and obtaining the remainder.

Example:

1. The unit digit of 123 is 3 (123 % 10 = 3)

2. The unit digit of 4567 is 7 (4567 % 10 = 7)

3. The unit digit of 89125 is 5 (89125 % 10 = 5)

In C program, we can use modulus operator (%) to extract the unit digit.

    int n, u;

    //take input of the number
    printf("Enter the number = ");
    scanf("%d", & n);

    // extract the unit digit
    u = n % 10;

    // display the result
    printf("Unit digit of %d is: %d", n, u);

    return 0;
