Declarations and Initializations

Which of the following operations are INCORRECT?

int i = 35; i = i%5;

short int j = 255; j = j;

long int k = 365L; k = k;

float a = 3.14; a = a%3;

Answer: Option

Explanation:

float a = 3.14; a = a%3; gives "Illegal use of floating point" error.

The modulus (%) operator can only be used on integer types. We have to use fmod() function in math.h for float values.
