Q = (2*m_1H2 - m_1H3 - m_1H1)*931.5; // Energy released per fusion, MeV
E = 0.001/(2*m_D)*Q/2; // Energy released per gram of fuel, MeV
printf("\nThe energy released per gram of fuel = %4.2e MeV", E);
// Result
// The energy released per gram of fuel = 6.02e+023 MeV
// The answer provided in the textbook is wrong
