Calculate Area of a Rectangle

This program calculates the area of a rectangle based on length and breadth entered by the user.

1. length : (Datatype int): to represent the length of the rectangle.

2. breadth : (Datatype int): to represent the breadth of the rectangle.

3. area : (Datatype long): to store the result of the area of the rectangle is computed.

printf() : is used to display something on the console/screen. Format specifier %d in printf function is used to display a int variable on screen and %ld for long. \n is used to add a new line

scanf() : is used to fetch data inputted by the user on the console/screen using the keyboard. %d in scanf is indicated that inputted text is of type int and %ld for long.

Area of Rectangle: length x breadth

Program to calculate Area of a Rectangle :

Enter the Length of a Rectangle: 20
Enter the Breadth of a Rectangle: 10
Area of Rectangle with Length as 20 and Breadth as 10 = 200
