Problem Statement

Write a C program using a union to store an integer and a float alternately, demonstrating shared memory allocation.

Input Format

An integer value followed by a float value.

Output Format

Print both values when assigned sequentially.

Constraints

-100000 <= IntVal <= 100000, 0.0 <= FloatVal <= 100000.0

Sample Input

10 5.5

Sample Output

Integer: 10
Float: 5.50

Explanation

Demonstrates union member assignment and shared storage behavior.

Starter Code

#include <stdio.h>

union Data {
    int i;
    float f;
};

int main() {
    union Data data;
    int val_i;
    float val_f;
    if (scanf("%d %f", &val_i, &val_f) == 2) {
        // Write your code here
    }
    return 0;
}
