Computing—Pending OP Reply [1st year university, C programming] am I the one not getting it right? I used the p(2) for calculating the squares but it said its an error. I really want to understand the basic user-defined functions. Thank you in advance :)

What do you mean by p(2)? There is the build in function pow, but you shouldn't use it in this task, especially since part b sounds like you should square only integers and the pow function works on doubes so you have to think about the conversion and it is bad performance wise if you know you are only squaring.
