COP 3223 – C Programming
About Exam 1
Exam 1 is a multiple-choice questions exam, and it is a paper-based
test (No electronic devices will be permitted in Exam 1. All you need
to bring is your UCF id, a pencil and a UCF scantron sheet). In each
question, a block of code will be provided, and your job is to walk
through the code to understand it, determine the values of the
variables being used and to find out what is printed to the screen.
There will be NO syntax questions; the code snippet provided in each
question is supposed to compile with no syntax errors. The #include
directives, int main () {, return 0; and the ending } will be omitted
in each question.
Below is NOT exam1. It is a practice exam for you to have a very good feel
of what to expect. It is highly recommended that you try the questions on
paper first before you test them on the computer. Expect around 30
questions in Exam1.
Exam1 will be on everything up to (and including) loops. More specifically,
you should know these:
1) Declaration and initialization of variables
2) Different data types : int, float, char
3) printf and scanf
4) Conversion specifiers (%d for int, %c for char and %f for float)
5) Arithmetic and other operators (++, --, ==, !=, >, >=, <, <=, &&,| |,%)
6) Integer division
7) The if-else statement
8) The switch statement
9) Loops
10) The break and continue keywords
