Write a Program to find the Volume of a Hexagonal Prism

Before writing the program of calculating the Volume of a hexagonal prism in different programming languages, firstly we have to know about the hexagonal prism and its volume's formula.

What is Hexagonal Prism?

Hexagonal Prism is a 3-D shape, which has 8 faces, 12 vertices, and 18 edges.

Area of Hexagonal Prism

Volume of Hexagonal Prism = 3 * √3 * a * a * h / 2
where a and h is the base length and height of the hexagonal prism. 

Program of calculating the Volume of a hexagonal prism in different Programming languages

Program 1: Write a Program in C language:

// This program which uses a function to find the Volume of a hexagonal prism .
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
float find_Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism(float a, float h) // It is a function to find Volume 
{ 
float Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism ;
Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism = 3 * sqrt(3) * a * a * h / 2; // It is a formula for calculating the Volume of hexagonal prism  
return (Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism ); 
} 
float main() 
{ 
float a = 4.55, h = 9.10;
printf("Volume of the hexagonal prism  is: %f", find_Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism(a, h));   
return 0; 
}

Output of Above C program:

Volume of the hexagonal prism  is: 489.458771

Program 2: Write a Program in Java language:

// This Java program which finds the Volume of a hexagonal prism .
class findVolume { 
static double find_Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism( float a, float h)
{  
double Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism ;
Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism = 3 * Math.sqrt(3) * a * a * h / 2; // It is a formula for calculating the Volume of hexagonal prism  
return(Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism); 
} 

// Driver method 
public static void main(String[] args) 
{ 
float a = 20;
float h = 10;
System.out.println("The Volume of a hexagonal prism  is:");
System.out.println(find_Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism(a, h)); 
} 
}

Output of Above Java program:

The Volume of a hexagonal prism is:
10392.304845413264

Program 3: Write a Program in PHP programming language.

<?php 
// This PHP program which finds the Volume of a hexagonal prism.  
// Function to find Volume 
function find_Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism($a, $h) 
{   
$Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism  = 3 * sqrt(3) * $a * $a * $h / 2; // It is an statement which uses a forumla to find the Volume and store the value in the Volume_of_hexagonal prism variable. 
return ($Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism); 
} 
$a = 4; 
$h = 4;  
echo find_Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism($a, $h); 

?>

Output of Above PHP program:

166.27687752661

Program 4: Write a Program in Python programming language.

# This is a python program which finds the Volume of a hexagonal prism.
from math import sqrt
def find_Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism(a, h):
    return ( 3 * sqrt(3) * a * a * h / 2) # It is a formula which finds the value of Volume.
# main code begins 
a = 9; 
h = 2;  
print(find_Volume_of_Hexagonal_prism(a, h) )

Output of Above Python program:
