I'm taking inputs as N = layer number W= Weight; each block in a pyramid transfers half its weight and 15% of the pressure above it to the blocks it interacts with.

#

anyone who needs more info i can send detailed specifications

Hi guys, I'm trying to develop a program which calculates pressures of blocks in a pyramid and pr```cpp
ints all these with their coordinates.
'''
#include <stdio.h>

double
calculate_pressure_on_block(int row, int column, double block_weight) {

if (column < 0) {
row--;
column = row;
}
if (row == 0) {
printf("(0,0) 0.00000000");
return 0;
} else if ((column == 0) || (column == row)) {
if (column == 0) {
double result = calculate_pressure_on_block(row, column, block_weight);
printf("(%d,%d) %.8f", row, column, result);
calculate_pressure_on_block(row, column - 1, block_weight);
return (block_weight) / 2 + (0.15) * calculate_pressure_on_block(
row - 1, column, block_weight);
} else if (column == row) {
double result = calculate_pressure_on_block(row, column, block_weight);
printf("(%d,%d) %.8f", row, column, result);
calculate_pressure_on_block(row, column - 1, block_weight);
return (block_weight) / 2 +
(0.15) *
calculate_pressure_on_block(row - 1, column - 1, block_weight);
}
} else {
double result = calculate_pressure_on_block(row, column, block_weight);
printf("(%d,%d) %.8f", row, column, result);
calculate_pressure_on_block(row, column - 1, block_weight);
return (block_weight) / 2 +
(0.15) *
calculate_pressure_on_block(row - 1, column - 1, block_weight) +
(0.15) * calculate_pressure_on_block(row - 1, column, block_weight);
}
}
int main() {
int N;
double W;
scanf("%d %lf", &N, &W);
calculate_pressure_on_block(N - 1, N - 1, W);
return 0;
}

fyi:
Backticks (i.e. ```), not apostrophes (i.e. ''').
Also put the language after the backticks, so:

```c
int main() {
int x = 4;
}
```

which would give you:

int main() {
    int x = 4;
}

A lot of identical blocks of code there. Makes it difficult to follow.
