A typedef gives a new name to an existing data type.
So err is a new name for enum error.

FILE - a structure containing the information about a file or text stream needed to perform input or output operations on it, including:
=> a file descriptor, the current stream position,
=> an end-of-file indicator,
=> an error indicator,
=> a pointer to the stream's buffer, if applicable

fpos_t - a non-array type capable of uniquely identifying the position of every byte in a file.
size_t - an unsigned integer type which is the type of the result of the sizeof operator.

The statement str = "Kanpur"; generates the LVALUE required error. We have to use strcpy function to copy a string.

To remove error we have to change this statement str = "Kanpur"; to strcpy(str, "Kanpur");

The program prints the string "anpur"

The macro PRINT(i) print("%d,", i); prints the given variable value in an integer format.

Step 1: int x=2, y=3, z=4; The variable x, y, z are declared as an integer type and initialized to 2, 3, 4 respectively.

Step 2: PRINT(x); becomes printf("%d,",x). Hence it prints '2'.

Step 3: PRINT(y); becomes printf("%d,",y). Hence it prints '3'.

Step 4: PRINT(z); becomes printf("%d,",z). Hence it prints '4'.

Hence the output of the program is 2, 3, 4.

The macro MIN(x, y) (x<y)? x : y; returns the smallest value from the given two numbers.

Step 1: int x=3, y=4, z; The variable x, y, z are declared as an integer type and the variable x, y are initialized to value 3, 4 respectively.

Step 2: z = MIN(x+y/2, y-1); becomes,

=> z = (x+y/2 < y-1)? x+y/2 : y - 1;

=> z = (3+4/2 < 4-1)? 3+4/2 : 4 - 1;

=> z = (3+2 < 4-1)? 3+2 : 4 - 1;

=> z = (5 < 3)? 5 : 3;

The macro return the number 3 and it is stored in the variable z.

Step 3: if(z > 0) becomes if(3 > 0) here the if condition is satisfied. It executes the if block statements.

Step 4: printf("%d\n", z);. It prints the value of variable z.

Hence the output of the program is 3

The macro MAN(x, y) ((x)>(y)) ? (x):(y); returns the biggest number of given two numbers.

Step 1: int i=10, j=5, k=0; The variable i, j, k are declared as an integer type and initialized to value 10, 5, 0 respectively.

Step 2: k = MAN(++i, j++); becomes,

=> k = ((++i)>(j++)) ? (++i):(j++);

=> k = ((11)>(5)) ? (12):(6);

=> k = 12

Step 3: printf("%d, %d, %d\n", i, j, k); It prints the variable i, j, k.

In the above macro step 2 the variable i value is increemented by 2 and variable j value is increemented by 1.

Hence the output of the program is 12, 6, 12

Declaration: strcmp(const char *s1, const char*s2);

The strcmp return an int value that is

if s1 < s2 returns a value < 0

if s1 == s2 returns 0

if s1 > s2 returns a value > 0

Step 1: int k, num=30; here variable k and num are declared as an integer type and variable num is initialized to '30'.
Step 2: k = (num>5 ? (num <=10 ? 100 : 200): 500); This statement does not affect the output of the program. Because we are going to print the variable num in the next statement. So, we skip this statement.
Step 3: printf("%d\n", num); It prints the value of variable num '30'
Step 3: Hence the output of the program is '30'

The strcmp return an int value that is

if s1 < s2 returns a value < 0

if s1 == s2 returns 0

if s1 > s2 returns a value > 0

From the above statements, that the third statement is only correct.

This program counts the number of lines in the file myfile.c by counting the character '\n' in that file.

This program will show an error "Cannot modify a const object".

Step 1: const int i=0; The constant variable 'i' is declared as an integer and initialized with value of '0'(zero).

Step 2: printf("%d\n", i++); Here the variable 'i' is increemented by 1(one). This will create an error "Cannot modify a const object".

Because, we cannot modify a const variable.

Step 1: int k=35; The variable k is declared as an integer type and initialized to 35.

Step 2: k = func1(k=func1(k=func1(k))); The func1(k) increement the value of k by 1 and return it. Here the func1(k) is called 3 times. Hence it increements value of k = 35 to 38. The result is stored in the variable k = 38.

Step 3: printf("k=%d\n", k); It prints the value of variable k "38".
