BASICS

1. Consider the following C function (GATE-2003)


float f(float x,int y)
{
floatp,s; inti;
for(s=1,p=1,i=1;i<y;i++)
{
p *=x/i;
S +=p;
}
return s;
}
For large values of y, the return value of the function f best approximates
a) xy b) ex c) ln(1 + x) d) xx

2. Consider the following C program (GATE-2004)


main()
{
int x, y, m, n;
scanf ("%d %d", &x, &y);
/* x > 0 and y > 0 */
m = x; n = y;
while (m != n)
{
if(m>n)
m = m - n;
else
n = n - m;
}
printf("%d", n);
}
The program computes
a) x + y using repeated subtraction b) x mod y using repeated subtraction
c) the greatest common divisor of x and yd) the least common multiple of x and y

3. Which combination of the integer variables x, y and z makes the variable a get the value 4 in
the following expression? (GATE-2008)
a = ( x> y ) ? (( x > z ) ? x : z) : (( y > z ) ? y : z )
a) x = 3, y = 4, z = 2 b) x = 6, y = 5, z = 3
c) x = 6, y = 3, z = 5 d) x = 5, y = 4, z = 5

4. What will be the output of the following C program segment? (GATE-2012)


charinchar = 'A';
switch (inchar)
{
case 'A' : printf ("choice A \n") ;
case 'B' : printf ("choice B ") ;
case 'C' :
case 'D' :
case 'E' :
default: printf ("No Choice") ;
}
a)No choice
b)Choice A
c)Choice A
Choice B No Choice
d)Program gives no output as it is erroneous

5. Consider the function func shown below: (GATE 2014)


intfunc(intnum) {
int count = 0;
while (num) {
count++;
num>>= 1;
}
return (count);
}
The value returned by func(435) is ………………

6. Suppose n and p are unsigned int variables in a C program. We wish to set p to


nC3. If n is large, which one of the following statements is most likely to set p
correctly?
(GATE 2014)
A) p = n * (n-1) * (n-2) / 6;
B) p = n * (n-1) / 2 * (n-2) / 3;
C) p = n * (n-1) / 3 * (n-2) / 2;
D) p = n * (n-1) * (n-2) / 6.0;

7. Consider the following C program (GATE 2015)


#inclue<stdio.h>
int main()
{
inti, j, k=0;
j = 2*3 / 4 + 2.0 / 5 + 8 / 5;
k - = --j;
for (i=0; i<5; i++)
{
switch(i+k)
{
case1:
case 2 : printf("\ n %d", i+k) ;
case 3: printf("\ n %d", i+k);
default :printf("\ n%d", i+k) ;
}
}
return 0;
}
The number of times printf statement is executed is

8. The attributes of three arithmetic operators in some programming language are given below.
(GATE 2016)
Operator Precedence Associativity Arity
+ High Left Binary
- Medium Right Binary
* Low Left Binary
The value of the expression 2 - 5 + 1 - 7 * 3 in this language
is

9. Consider the following C program: (GATE 2017)


#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int m = 10;
int n, n1;
n = ++m;
n1 = m++;
n--;
--n1;
n -= n1;
printf("%d",n);
return 0;
}
The output of the program is

10. The following function computes XY for positive integers X and Y.(GATE 2016)
intexp(int X, int Y)
{
int res = 1, a = X, b = Y;
while ( b != 0 )
{
if ( b%2 == 0)
{
a = a*a;
b = b/2;
}
else
{
res = res*a;
b = b-1;
}
}
return res;
}
Which one of the following conditions is TRUE before every iteration of the loop
A) XY = ab B) (res*a)Y = (res*X)b C) XY = res*ab D) XY = (res*a)b
