//To calculate the energy of electron
n1 = 1;
n2 = 1;
n3 = 2; //for level next to the lowest
e = 1.6*10^-19;
h = 6.62*10^-34; //planck's constant
m = 9.1*10^-31; //mass of electron, kg
L = 0.1; //side of box, nm
L = L*10^-9; //side of box, m
E1 = h^2*(n1^2+n2^2+n3^2)/(8*m*L^2); //lowest energy, J
E1 = E1/e; //lowest energy, eV
printf("energy of electron is %5.2f eV",E1);
//answer given in the book is wrong in the 2nd decimal
