Solution for L1.Q1

a = xxx * 10
which is => a = ABC - XYZ * 10
=> a = 20 - 10 * 10
=> a = 20 - 100
=> a = -80

L1.A2
Solution for L1.Q2

Actual substitution is like this :

calc(20+4, 10 -2) is calculated as follows

(20+4 * 10-2) / (20+4 - 10-2)


(20+40-2) / 12
58 / 12 = 4.8
since it is printed in %d the ans is 4

L1.A3
Solution for L1.Q3

This problem will compile properly, but it will give run


time error. It will give divide-by-zero error. Look in to
the do loop portion

do { a /= cnt; } while (cnt --);

when the 'cnt' value is 1, it is decremented in 'while


( cnt --)' and on next reference of 'cnt' it becomes zero.

a /= cnt; /* ie. a /= 0 */
which leads to divide-by-zero error.

L1.A4
Solution for L1.Q4
the result will be c = 40 and abc = 0;
because the scope of the variable 'abc' inside if(c) {.. }
is not valid out side that if (.) { .. }.

L1.A5
Solution for L1.Q5

The answer is 7. The first condition ++k < 5 is checked and


it is false (Now k = 6). So, it checks the 3rd condition
(or condition ++k <= 8) and (now k = 7) it is true. At this
point k value is incremented by twice, hence the value of k
becomes 7.

Solution for L1.Q6

The solution depends on the implementation of stack.


(Depends on OS) In some machines the arguments are passed
from left to right to the stack. In this case the result
will be

Main : 5 7 Fn : 7 7

Other machines the arguments may be passed from right to


left to the stack. In that case the result will be

Main : 6 6
Fn : 8 7

L3.A6
Solution for L3.Q6

The first value will be 0, the rest of the three values will
not be predictable. Actually it prints the values of the
following location in each step
* savea
* (savea + sizeof(int) * sizeof(int))
etc...

ie. savea += sizeof(int) => savea = savea +


sizeof(savea_type) * sizeof(int)
( by pointer arithmatic)
=> save = savea + sizeof(int) * sizeof(int)

Note: You can verify the above by varing the type of 'savea'
variable to char, double, struct, etc.

Instead of statement 'savea += sizeof(int)' use savea++ then


the values 0, 10, 20 and 30 will be printed. This behaviour
is because of pointer arithmatic.

LX.A7
Solution for LX.Q7

Two function pointers f1 and f2 are declared of the type


abc. whereas abc is a pointer to a function returns int.

func1() which is assigned to f1 is called first. It


modifies the values of the parameter 'a' and 'b' to 100,
"hello! func1 ". In func1(), func2() is called which
further modifies the value of 'a' and 'b' to 200, "hello!
func1 func2 " and returns the value of 'a' which is 200 to
the main. Main calls f1() again after assigning func2() to
f1. So, func2() is called and it returns the following
value which will be the output of this program.

res : 400 str : hello! func1 func2 func2

The output string shows the trace of the functions called :


func1() and func2() then again func2().

LX.A9
Solution for LX.Q9

In C we can index an array in two ways.


For example look in to the following lines
int a[3] = {10, 20, 30, 40};
In this example index=3 of array 'a' can be represented
in 2 ways.
1) a[3] and
2) 3[a]
i.e) a[3] = 3[a] = 40

Extend the same logic to this problem. You will get the
output as follows

Hello! how is this? super


That is C
