5) Write a program which gets input string from user and matches it with another “This is my
Pakistan”. For example if user enter “my” then the output will be “string found” or in case it
does not matches “Not Found”.
6) Write a program which get input from user as an integer array and uses pointer to print it in
reverse order.
7) One question from matrix programming

Some questions from past papers

1) If there are 2n elements in an array then what would be the number of iterations required to
search a number using binary search and linear search?
2) Which header file must be included while handling files?
3) What is meant by C++ statement: const int *ptr = &x;
(i) An array day is declared as: int day[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}; How many elements does array
'day' has?
(ii) If the declaration is changed as: int day[7] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}; How many elements does
array 'day' has?
4) Write a void function( ); that takes integer numbers from the user and then displays the sum of
odd and even numbers entered by the user. Your program should terminate if user enters a
negative number
5) Write down the function definition if we want to pass the arguments to a function by reference
without changing the values stored at that addresses.
6) What is meant by scope of identifiers? Differentiate between different scope of identifiers and
explain them with examples?
7) Can you use an assignment operator to assign the value of one C-string to another?
8) Which bitwise operator returns true if both bits are different and returns false if both bits are
same?
9) What will be the value of x after the execution of the following code segment?
Int x =10;
int y =30;
int *xptr = &x;
x = *xptr + 10;
10) Write a program which reads a text file “playersinfo.txt” residing in the current directory.
Open the file playersinfo.txt in read mode and assign these values to the struct Player; assume
order of the data in the file to be exactly the same as the order of struct attributes. The struct
Player has following attributes
i) Name
ii) Height
iii) Age
iv) Score
v) Game
After reading the file and assigning values to the struct, in the end close the file playersinfo.txt
11) Write a recursive function that takes character array and starting subscript as arguments. In
each recursive call, the function should display the string from subscript to the end of string. The
starting subscript in first call should be 0. In each successive call, the subscript should increase
by one and function should print the array from subscript to the end of string. The function
should stop processing and return when null character encounters. Suppose the char string passed

to the function is, "samplestring", then the function will print output as follows,
samplestring
amplestring
mplestring
plestring
so on....
12) Customer with structure variable cust1 What line of code should he write
13) Write a void function( ); that takes integer numbers from the user and then displays the sum
of odd and even numbers entered by the user. Your program should terminate if user enters a
negative number
14) Suppose ‘z’ is a variable of type int. What will be the result of x = 27/4:
15) Give the general syntax of definition of structure.
16) Consider the structure
struct Customer
{
int custnum;
int salary;
float commission;
};
17) A programmer wants to assign 2000 for the structure member salary in the above example
ofstructure Customer with structure variable cust1 What line of code should he write
18) Write a C++ program that will determine if a departmental store customer has exceeded the
credit limit on a charge account.
Program should input the following facts in five variables
1. Account number
2. Balance at the beginning of month (Beginning balance)
3. Total of all items charged by customer this month (charges)
4. Total of all credits (credits)
5. Allowed credit limit
Calculate the new balance
New balance = Beginning balance + charges – credits
Determine if new balance exceeds the allowed credit limit. For those customers whose credit
limit is exceeded. The program should display the message “Credit Limit exceeded.”
19) What happens when we increment a pointer? (3 marks)
20) Can you use an assignment operator to assign the value of one C-string to another?(3 marks)
21) Write down the functions definition if we want to pass the argument to a function by
reference without changing the values stored at address.
22) write a programme which open the file named “this.txt”and using write ( ) function writes
the string “introduction to programming” at the end of the file.At the end close the programme
properly . 5
23) write down the output of the following code segment .
Intnum[10]=[2,3,5,8,9,10,12,15,19,20]
Int*ptr=num;
For int i=o; i<10, i+=2
{
Cout(ptr+i)<,”;
