Q 1 - What is the output of the below code snippet?

#include<stdio.h>

main() 
{
   for(1;2;3)
      printf("Hello");
}

A - Infinite loop

B - Prints “Hello” once.

C - No output

D - Compile error

Answer : A

Explanation

infinite loop, as the second expression is non-0, hence the condition is always true.

Q 2 - What is the output of the following program?

#include<stdio.h>

void swap(int m, int n)
{
   int x = m;
   
   m = n;
   n = x;
}
main()
{
   int x=5, y=3;

   swap(x,y);
   printf("%d %d", x, y);
}

A - 3 5

B - 5 3

C - 5 5

D - Compile error

Answer : B

Explanation

5 3, call by value mechanism can’t alter actual arguments.

#include <stdio.h>
void swap(int m, int n)
{
   int x = m;
   
   m = n;
   n = x;
}
main()
{
   int x=5, y=3;

   swap(x,y);
   printf("%d %d", x, y);
}

Q 3 - What is the output of the following program?

#include<stdio.h>

main()
{
   int i = 1;
   
   Charminar:
   printf("%d ",i++);
   if(i==3) break;
   if(i<=5) goto Charminar;
}

A - 1 2

B - 1 2 3

C - 1 2 4 5

D - Compile error

Answer : D

Explanation

Compile error, wrong place for ‘break’ to appear.

Q 4 - Which of the following is used in mode string to open the file in binary mode?

A - a

B - b

C - B

D - bin

Answer : B

Explanation

To perform unformatted data I/O a file is opened in binary mode and is represented with the alphabet ‘b’ in the mode string.

Q 5 - What is the output of the following program?

#include<stdio.h>

main()
{
   char *s = "Hello";
   
   while(*s!=NULL)
   printf("%c", *s++);
}

A - Hello

B - Helloellolloloo

C - ello

D - Compile error

Answer : A

Explanation

NULL is equivalent to ‘\0’ in value. Statement *s++ prints the character first and increments the address later.

Q 6 - The binary equivalent of 50 is,

A - 110010

B - 1010110

C - 101

D - 101.011.00.00

Answer : A

Explanation

#include <stdio.h>

 int main()
{
   long int decimalNumber,remainder,quotient;
    int binaryNumber[100], i = 1, j;

    printf("Enter any decimal number: ");
    scanf("%ld",&decimalNumber);
    quotient = decimalNumber;
    while(quotient!=0){
           binaryNumber[i++]= quotient % 2;
    quotient = quotient / 2;
    }
    printf("Equivalent binary value of decimal number %d: ",decimalNumber);
    for(j = i -1 ;j> 0;j--)
    printf("%d",binaryNumber[j]);
    return 0;
}

Q 7 - For a structure, if a variable behave as a pointer then from the given below operators which operator can be used to access data of the structure via the variable pointer?

A - .

B - %

C - ->

D - #

Answer : C

Explanation

For a structure, Dot(.) operator can be used to access the data using normal structure variable and arrow (->)can be used to access the data using pointer variable.

Q 8 - In DOS, how many bytes exist for near, far and huge pointers?

A - Near: 2, far: 4, huge: 7

B - near: 4, far: 2, huge: 8

C - near: 2, far: 4, huge: 4

D - near: 4, far: 0, huge: 0

Answer : C

Explanation

In DOS, numbers of byte exist for near pointer = 2, far pointer = 4 and huge pointer = 4.

In Windows and Linux, numbers of byte exist for near pointer = 4, far pointer = 4 and huge pointer = 4.

Q 9 - In the given below code, what will be return by the function get ()?

#include<stdio.h>

int get();

int main()

{
   const int x = get();
   
   printf("%d", x);
   return 0;
}
   int get()
   {
    return 40;
}

A - 40

B - 20

C - 0

D - Error

Answer : A

Explanation

Firstly, “int get()” which is a get() function prototype returns an integer value without any parameters.

Secondly, const int x = get(); The constant variable x is declared as an integer data type and initialized with the value of get(). Hence, the value of get() is 40, printf("%d", x); will print the value of x, that means; 40. So, the program output will be 40.

#include<stdio.h>

int get();

int main()

{
   const int x = get();
   
   printf("%d", x);
   return 0;
}
   int get()
   {
    return 40;
}

Answer : D

Explanation

square parenthesis signify as array at declaration and type is char*, so array of character pointers.
