6. Input/Output
In the context of the following printf() in C, pick the best statement.

ii) printf(”%d”,090);
iii) printf(”%d”,00200);
iv) printf(”%d”,0007000);

(a) Only i) would compile. And it will print 8.

(b) Both i) and ii) would compile. i) will print 8 while ii) will print 90
(c) All i), ii), iii) and iv) would compile successfully and they will print 8, 90, 200 &
7000 respectively.
