In this video, we will write a C program to Check if an input number is Positive Negative or Zero.

Basically, a number that is greater than zero is known as a Positive number and denoted by a plus (+) sign. Whereas numbers that are less than zero are known as Negative numbers and denoted by a minus(-)sign.

Algorithm:
Step 1: Take input of a number from the user.
Step 2: Check that number:
Step 2.1: If the number is less than zero, then print the number as Negative.
Step 2.2: If the number is greater than zero then print that the number is Positive.
Step 2.3: If the input number is equal to zero then print 0.
Step 3: Stop the program.

In the video to check whether the number is positive/negative/zero we use two different methods:
1. Using the if-else ladder condition
2. Using Nested of if-else

Examples:
Input: n = -37
Output: Negative

Input: n = 160
Output: Positive

Input: n = 0
Output: Zero

Apart from that, we will see the time and space complexity of both the methods,i.e
Time Complexity: O(1)
Space Complexity:(1)
