                                5.
Which of the following statements are correct about the below program?
 
                                    #include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
    int i = 0;
    i++;
    if(i <= 5)
    {
        printf("IndiaBIX\n");
        exit(0);
        main();
    }
    return 0;
}
Answer: Option
                                                    Explanation:
                                                
Step 1: int i = 0; here variable i is declared as an integer type and initialized to '0'(zero).
Step 2: i++; here variable i is increemented by 1(one). Hence, i = 1
Step 3: if(i <= 5) becomes if(1 <= 5) here we are checking '1' is less than or equal to '5'. Hence the if condition is satisfied.
Step 4: printf("IndiaBIX\n"); It prints "IndiaBIX"
Step 5: exit(); terminates the program execution.
Hence the output is "IndiaBIX".

                Can main have a call to itself?

                Yes main can call itself
#include<stdio.h>
int i=0;
int main()
{
i++;
if(i <= 5)
{
printf("IndiaBIX\n");
main();
        
}
return 0;
}
o/p
IndiaBIX
IndiaBIX
IndiaBIX
IndiaBIX
IndiaBIX
                #include<stdio.h>
int i=0;
int main()
{
i++;
if(i <= 5)
{
printf("IndiaBIX\n");
main();
}
return 0;
}
o/p
IndiaBIX

                It also gives error that exit() was not declared in this scope.

                But after exit() main() will be executed or not?

                This is simple. It will print indiabix one time because there will be conditional statement presented. Instead of that if there while or for (looping statements) presented means it will printed 5 times.

                Can we call main() function any where in the program?

                Will exit (0) and exit (1) both results in execution of exit statement?

Nothing will happen when we remove the inside main() function,
Because exit(0) will terminate the program, so the printf statement will execute one time.
