Q 1 - What is the outpout of the following program?
#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
enum { india, is=7, GREAT };
printf("%d %d", india, GREAT);
}
Answer : C
Explanation
0 8, enums gives the sequence starting with 0. If assigned with a value the sequence continues from the assigned value.
Q 2 - What is the value of ‘y’ for the following code snippet?
#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
int x = 1;
float y = x>>2;
printf( "%f", y );
}
Answer : C
Explanation
0, data bits are lost for the above shift operation hence the value is 0.
Q 3 - Function fopen() with the mode "r+" tries to open the file for __
Answer : A
Explanation
Option (a), the file should exist and opens for both reading & writing.
Q 4 - What is the output of the following program?
#include<stdio.h>
int* f()
{
int x = 5;
return &x;
}
main()
{
printf("%d", *f());
}
Answer : D
Explanation
It is invalid to return local variable address as the local variable gets removed after the functions execution is completed.
Answer : C
Explanation
B is a programming language developed at Bell Labs in 1969. It is derived from BCPL (Basic Combined Programming Language). It is designed by Ken Thompson with Dennis Ritchie.
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 - The given below program allocates the memory, what function will you use to free the allocated memory?
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#define MAXROW 4
# define MAXCOL 5
int main ()
{
int **p, i, j
p = (int **) malloc(MAXROW * sizeof(int*));
return 0;
}
Answer : B
Explanation
free() is the function in C language to release the allocated memory by any dynamic memory allocating built in library function.
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#define MAXROW 4
# define MAXCOL 5
int main ()
{
int **p, i, j
p = (int **) malloc(MAXROW * sizeof(int*));
return 0;
}
Q 8 - How many times the given below program will print "India"?
#include<stdio.h>
int main ()
{
int x;
for(x=-1; x<=20; x++)int i;
{
if(x < 10)
continue;
else
break;
printf("India");
}
Answer : C
Explanation
Following for loop there is only one statement, that is int i; break & continue are appearing out side for block which is compile error
#include<stdio.h>
int main ()
{
int x;
for(x=-1; x<=20; x++)int i;
{
if(x < 10)
continue;
else
break;
printf("India");
}
Q 9 - What will be the resultant of the given below program?
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdarg.h>
Void fun(char *msg, ...);
int main ()
{
fun("IndiaMAX", 1, 4, 7, 11, 0);
return 0;
}
void fun(char *msg, ...)
{
va_list ptr;{
int num;
va_start(ptr, msg);
num = va_arg(ptr, int);
num = va_arg(ptr, int);
printf("%d", num);
}
Answer : C
Explanation
va_list ptr is an argument pointer that traverse through the variable arguments passed in the function, where, va_start points 'ptr' to the first argument (IndiaMix). In each call to the va_arg, ptr shift to the next variable argument and after two calls ptr ends up at '7' and return the number '4'.
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdarg.h>
Void fun(char *msg, ...);
int main ()
{
fun("IndiaMAX", 1, 4, 7, 11, 0);
return 0;
}
void fun(char *msg, ...)
{
va_list ptr;{
int num;
va_start(ptr, msg);
num = va_arg(ptr, int);
num = va_arg(ptr, int);
printf("%d", num);
}
Q 10 - If, the given below code finds the length of the string then what will be the length?
#include<stdio.h>
int xstrlen(char *s)
{
int length = 0;
while(*s!='\0')
{length++; s++;}
return (length);
}
int main()
{
char d[] = "IndiaMAX";
printf("Length = %d\n", xstrlen(d));
return 0;
}
Answer : B
Explanation
Here, *s is char pointer that holds character string. To print whole string we use printf("%s",s) by using base address. s contains base address (&s[0]) and printf will print characters until '\0' occurs. *s only gives first character of input string, but s++ will increase the base address by 1 byte. When *s=='\0' encountered, it will terminate loop.
#include<stdio.h>
int xstrlen(char *s)
{
int length = 0;
while(*s!='\0')
{length++; s++;}
return (length);
}
int main()
{
char d[] = "IndiaMAX";
printf("Length = %d\n", xstrlen(d));
return 0;
}
