If the binary eauivalent of 5.375 in normalised form is 0100 0000 1010 1100 0000 0000 0000 0000, what will be the output of the program (on intel machine)?
#include<stdio.h>
#include<math.h>
int main()
{
float a=5.375;
char *p;
int i;
p = (char*)&a;
for(i=0; i<=3; i++)
printf("%02x\n", (unsigned char)p[i]);
return 0;
}

@ Hajmal
They gave the binary equivalent of 5.375 in normal form
0100 -> 4
0000 -> 0
1010 -> A
1100 -> C
0000 -> 0
0000 -> 0
0000 -> 0
0000 -> 0
