Q 1 - What is the output of the following code snippet?
#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
char c = 'A'+255;
printf("%c", c);
}
Answer : A
Explanation
A, the range of ASCII values for the ASCII characters is 0-255. Hence the addition operation circulates back to ‘A’
Q 2 - What is the output of the following program?
#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
int x = 65, *p = &x;
void *q=p;
char *r=q;
printf("%c",*r);
}
Answer : B
Explanation
A, void pointer is a generic pointer and can hold any variable’s address. ASCII character for the value 65 is ‘A’
Answer : B
Explanation
‘cc’ full form is C Compiler and is the compiler for UNIX. gcc is GNU C compiler for linux. Borland and vc++ (Microsoft visual c++) for windows.
Q 4 - What is the output of the below code snippet.
#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
printf("%d", -11%2);
}
Answer : B
Explanation
Modulus (%) operator is meant to give reminder for integer division.
Q 5 - What is the output of the following program?
#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
char s[] = "C++";
printf("%s ",s);
s++;
printf("%s",s);
}
Answer : D
Explanation
‘s’ refers to a constant address and cannot be incremented.
Q 6 - int fun(); - The declaration indicates the presence of a function defined inside the current module or in the same file.
Answer : A
Explanation
The function definition can even appear in another source code and can be linked from library while linking.
Q 7 - Which library function can convert an integer/long to a string?
Answer : A
Explanation
In C, ltoa() function converts long/integer data type to string data type.
char *ltoa(long N, char *str, int base);
Q 8 - Which of the following statement can be used to free the allocated memory?
Answer : B
Explanation
The library function free() deallocates the memory allocated by calloc(), malloc(), or realloc().
Q 9 - What value strcmp() function returns when two strings are the same?
Answer : A
Explanation
The C library function strcmp() compares two strings with each other and return the value accordingly.
int strcmp(const char *str1, const char *str2)
Comparison happens between first string (str1) with second string (str2).
By comparing two strings, the values return by the function strcmp() are,
- If, str1 is less than str2 then Return value < 0
- If, str2 is less than str1 then Return value > 0
- If, str1 is equal to str2 then Return value = 0
Q 10 - extern int fun(); - The declaration indicates the presence of a global function defined outside the current module or in another file.
Answer : A
Explanation
Extern is used to resolve the scope of global identifier.
