Q: Given the below statements about C programming language:

1) main() function should always be the first function present in a C program
file 2) all the elements of an union share their memory location
3) A void pointer can hold address of any type and can be typcasted to any
type 4) A static variable hold random junk value if it is not initialised

Telegram- https://t.me/placement_0
 Telegram- https://t.me/placement_0

Which of the above are correct statements? A) 2,3

B) 1,2
C) 1,2,3

D) 1,2,3,4
Correct Op - A
Explanations
In a file you can write a function before main() - False

all the elements of an union share their memory location - True.

A void pointer can hold address of any type and can be typcasted to any type -
True

ls
Static value - False as value is 0

ia
In C, if an object that has static storage duration is not initialized explicitly,

er
then: at
— if it has pointer type, it is initialized to a NULLpointer;
m

— if it has arithmetic type, it is initialized to (positive or unsigned)zero;

e

— if it is an aggregate, every member is initialized (recursively) accordingto

theserules;
im

— if it is a union, the first named member is initialized (recursively)according

pr

to theserules.
T

Q If a function is defined as static, it means

Q

A) The value returned by the function does notchange

N

B) all the variable declared inside the function automatically will beassigned
initial value ofzero

C) It should be called only within the same source code / program file. D)None
of the other choices as it is wrong to add static prefix toa

function Correct Op: C

Access to static functions is restricted to the file where they are declared.
Therefore, when we want to restrict access to functions, we make them static.

Q: Comment on the below while statement=

Telegram- https://t.me/placement_0
 Telegram- https://t.me/placement_0

while (0 == 0) { }

A) It has syntax error as there are no statements within braces{}

B) It will runforever

C) It compares 0 with 0 and since they are equal it will exit the loop
immediately D) It has syntax error as the same number is being comparedwith
itself

Correct Op: B
while( 0==0) {} is equivalent to while(1) {}

1. What will happen if in a C program you assign a value to an arrayelement

ls
whose subscript exceeds the size ofarray?

ia
A. The element will be set to0.

er
B. The compiler would report anerror.
C. The program may crash if some important data gets overwritten. D. The
at
array size would appropriatelygrow.
Answer: Option C
m

Explanation:
e

If the index of the array size is exceeded, the program will crash. Hence
"option c" is the correct answer. But the modern compilers will take care of
im

this kind of errors.

2. What does the following declaration mean? int(*ptr)[10];

A. ptr is array of pointers to 10 integers B.ptr is a pointer to an array of 10
T

integers
Q

C.ptr is an array of 10 integers D.ptr is an pointer to array Answer: Option B

N

3. In C, if you pass an array as an argument to a function, what actually gets

passed?

A. Value of elements in array B.First element of the array C.Base address of

the array

D.Address of the last element of array

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Telegram- https://t.me/placement_0
 Telegram- https://t.me/placement_0

The statement 'C' is correct. When we pass an array as a function argument,

the base address of the array will be passed.

4. What will be the output of the program ?#include<stdio.h>

intmain()
{

int a[5] = {5, 1, 15, 20, 25}; int i, j,m;

i =++a[1];
j =a[1]++;

m = a[i++];

ia
A.2, 1, 15

B.1, 2, 5
er
at
C.3, 2,15
m

D.2, 3,20
e
im

Answer: Option C

Explanation:
pr

Step 1: int a[5] = {5, 1, 15, 20, 25}; The variable arr is declared as an integer
T

array with a size of 5 and it is initiapzed to

Q

a[0] = 5, a[1] = 1, a[2] = 15, a[3] = 20, a[4] = 25 .

N

Step 2: int i, j, m; The variable i,j,m are declared as an integer type.

Step 3: i = ++a[1]; becomes i = ++1; Hence i = 2 and a[1] = 2

Step 4: j = a[1]++; becomes j = 2++; Hence j = 2 and a[1] = 3.

Step 5: m = a[i++]; becomes m = a[2]; Hence m = 15 and i is incremented by

1(i++ means 2++ so i=3)

Step 6: printf("%d, %d, %d", i, j, m); It prints the value of the variables i, j, m
Hence the output of the program is 3, 2, 15

5. Is there any difference int the following declarations? int fun(intarr[]);

int fun(int arr[2]); A.Yes

B.No
Answer: Option B Explanation:

No, both the statements are same. It is the prototype for the function fun() that
accepts one integer array as an parameter and returns an integer value.

6. Are the expressions arr and &arr same for an array of 10 integers?A.Yes
B.No
Answer: Option B

Explanation:

ls
Both mean two different things. arr gives the address of the first int, whereas

ia
the &arr gives the address of array of ints.

Question 1: Use of an increment statement or decrement statement in C?
Answer:
er
at
There are actually two ways you can do this. One is to use the increment
operator ++ and decrement operator - -. For example, the statement x++ means
m

to increment the value of x by 1. Likewise, the statement x -- means to

decrement the value of x by 1.
e
im

Two types of increments are:

1. pre increment: (increment by 1 then print)and
pr

2. post increment: (print then incremented value will be in buffer). Samething

will be withdecrement.
T
Q

Question 2: In programs we place comment symbols on some codes instead

of deleting it. How does this aid in debugging?
N

Answer:

Placing comment symbols /* */ around a code, also referred to as commenting

out, is a way of isolating some codes that you think maybe causing errors in
the program, without deleting the code.

Question 3: What is the use of a ‘\0' character?

Answer:
This character is used primarily to show the end of a string value.

 Telegram- https://t.me/placement_0

Question 4: What is the difference between the = symbol and == symbol?

Answer:

The = symbol is often used in mathematical operations. It is used to assign a

value to a given variable. On the other hand, the == symbol, also known as
equal to or equivalent to, is a relational operator that is used to compare two
values.

Question 5: In C Programming, which of the following operators is incorrect

and why? ( >=, <=, <>, ==)

Answer:

<> is incorrect, all other operators are relational operators. While this operator

ls
is correctly interpreted as not equal to in writing conditional statements, it is
not the proper operator to be used in C programming. Instead, the operator !=

Question 7: Can I use int data type to store the value 32768? Why/why not?
pr

Answer:
T

No. int data type is capable of storing values from -32768 to 32767. To store
32768, you can use long int instead. You can also use ‘unsigned int, assuming
Q

you don’t intend to store negative values.

N

Question 8: Can two or more operators such as \n and \t be combined in a

single line of program code?

Answer: Yes, it’s perfectly valid to combine operators, especially if the need
arises.

For example: you can have a code like ‘printf (‘Hello\n\n\’World\’)’ to output the
text ‘Hello’ on the first line and ‘World’ enclosed in single quotes to appear on
the next two lines.

 Telegram- https://t.me/placement_0

When declaring functions, you will decide whether that function would be
returning a value or not. If that function will not return a value, such as when
the purpose of a function is to display some outputs on the screen, then void
is to be placed at the leftmost part of the function header. When a return value
is expected after the function execution, the data type of the return value is
placed instead of void.

Question 1: What is wrong in this statement? scanf(%d,whatnumber);

Answer:

An ampersand '&' symbol must be placed before the variable name

whatnumber. Placing & means whatever integer value is entered by the user is
stored at the address of the variable name. This is a common mistake for
programmers, often leading to logical errors.

Question 2: What does the format %10.2 mean when included in a printf
statement?

Answer:

ls
This format is used for two things: to set the number of spaces allotted for the

ia
output number and to set the number of decimal places. The number before

er
the decimal point is for the allotted space, in this case it would allot 10 spaces
for the output number. If the number of space occupied by the output number
at
is less than 10, addition space characters will be inserted before the actual
output
m

number. The number after the decimal point sets the number ofdecimal
places, in this case, it’s 2 decimalspaces.

Q

Question 1: Difference between pass by reference and pass by value?

N

Answer:

Pass by value just passes the value from caller to calling function so the called
function cannot modify the values in caller function. But Pass by reference will
pass the address to the caller function instead of value if called function
requires to modify any value it can directly modify.

Question 3: What is a class? Answer:

Class is a user-defined data type in C++. It can be created to solve a particular

kind of problem. After creation the user need not know the specifics of the
working of a class.

Question 4: What is the difference between class and structure? Answer:

Structure: Initially (in C) a structure was used to bundle different type of data
types together to perform a particular functionality. But C++ extended the
structure to contain functions also.

The major difference is that all declarations inside a structure are by default
public.

ls
Class: Class is a successor of Structure. By default all the members inside the

ia
class are private.

Question 5: What is pointer? Answer:

er
at
Pointer is a variable in a program is something with a name, the value of which
m

Question 7: what is function overloading? Answer:

N

Function overloading is a feature of C++ that allows us to create multiple

functions with the same name, so long as they have different
parameters.Consider the following function:

int Add(int nX, int nY) {

return nX + nY;

Question 8: what is friend function? Answer:

Telegram- https://t.me/placement_0
 Telegram- https://t.me/placement_0

A friend function for a class is used in object-oriented programming to allow

access to public, private, or protected data in the class from the outside.

Normally, a function that is not a member of a class cannot access such

information; neither can an external class. Occasionally, such access will be
advantageous for the programmer. Under these circumstances, the functionor
external class can be declared as a friend of the class using the friend
keyword

Question 9: What do you mean by inline function?

Answer: The idea behind inline functions is to insert the code of a called
function at the point where the function is called. If done carefully, this can
improve the application's performance in exchange for increased compile time

ls
and possibly (but not always) an increase in the size of the generated binary
executables.

An abstract class is a class which does not fully represent an object. Instead,
it represents a broad range of different classes of objects. However, this

representation extends only to the features that those classes of objects have
in common. Thus, an abstract class provides only a partial description of its

Q

For Array memory allocated is static and continuous. For List memory
allocated is dynamic and random.
N

Array: User need not have to keep in track of next memory allocation.
List: User has to keep in Track of next location where memory is allocated.

Array uses direct access of stored members; list uses sequential access for
members.
