Online C Programming Test - C Programming Test 7

The basic C compiler is 16 bit compiler, below are the size of it's data types
The size of short int is 2 bytes wide(16 bits).
The size of long int is 4 bytes wide(32 bits).

Simply called as BODMAS (Bracket of Division, Multiplication, Addition and Subtraction).

How Do I Remember ? BODMAS !

2. Arithmetic operators: *, /, %, +, -
1. Relational operators: >, <, >=, <=, ==, !=
3. Logical operators : !, &&, ||
4. Assignment operators: =

Associativity is only needed when the operators in an expression have the same precedence. Usually + and - have the same precedence.

Consider the expression 7 - 4 + 2. The result could be either (7 - 4) + 2 = 5 or 7 - (4 + 2) = 1. The former result corresponds to the case when + and - are left-associative, the latter to when + and - are right-associative.

Usually the addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division operators are left-associative, while the exponentiation, assignment and conditional operators are right-associative. To prevent cases where operands would be associated with two operators, or no operator at all, operators with the same precedence must have the same associativity.

f(int a, int b) The variable a is declared in the function argument statement.

int a; Here again we are declaring the variable a. Hence it shows the error "Redeclaration of a"

The macro function SQUARE(x) x*x calculate the square of the given number 'x'. (Eg: 10²)

Step 1: float s=10, u=30, t=2, a; Here the variable s, u, t, a are declared as an floating point type and the variable s, u, t are initialized to 10, 30, 2.

Step 2: a = 2*(s-u*t)/SQUARE(t); becomes,

=> a = 2 * (10 - 30 * 2) / t * t; Here SQUARE(t) is replaced by macro to t*t .

=> a = 2 * (10 - 30 * 2) / 2 * 2;

=> a = 2 * (10 - 60) / 2 * 2;

=> a = 2 * (-50) / 2 * 2 ;

=> a = 2 * (-25) * 2 ;

=> a = (-50) * 2 ;

=> a = -100;

Step 3: printf("Result=%f", a); It prints the value of variable 'a'.

Hence the output of the program is -100

True, #undef can be used only on a macro that has been #define earlier

Example: #define PI 3.14

We can undefine PI macro by #undef PI

Step 1: char str1[20] = "Hello", str2[20] = " World"; The variable str1 and str2 is declared as an array of characters and initialized with value "Hello" and " World" respectively.

Step 2: printf("%s\n", strcpy(str2, strcat(str1, str2)));

=> strcat(str1, str2)) it append the string str2 to str1. The result will be stored in str1. Therefore str1 contains "Hello World".

=> strcpy(str2, "Hello World") it copies the "Hello World" to the variable str2.

Hence it prints "Hello World".

Step 1: char p[] = "%d\n"; The variable p is declared as an array of characters and initialized with string "%d".

Step 2: p[1] = 'c'; Here, we overwrite the second element of array p by 'c'. So array p becomes "%c".

Step 3: printf(p, 65); becomes printf("%c", 65);

Therefore it prints the ASCII value of 65. The output is 'A'.

Step 1: void swap(char *, char *); This prototype tells the compiler that the function swap accept two strings as arguments and it does not return anything.

Step 2: char *pstr[2] = {"Hello", "IndiaBIX"}; The variable pstr is declared as an pointer to the array of strings. It is initialized to

pstr[0] = "Hello", pstr[1] = "IndiaBIX"

Step 3: swap(pstr[0], pstr[1]); The swap function is called by "call by value". Hence it does not affect the output of the program.

If the swap function is "called by reference" it will affect the variable pstr.

Step 4: printf("%s\n%s", pstr[0], pstr[1]); It prints the value of pstr[0] and pstr[1].

Hence the output of the program is

Hello
IndiaBIX

To scan a float value, %f is used as format specifier.

To scan a double value, %lf is used as format specifier.

Therefore, the answer is scanf("%f %lf", &a, &b);
