C++

A language that doesn’t affect the way you think about programming is not worth knowing.  Alan J. Perlis

C is a general purpose, procedural programming language. C was developed by Dennis M. Ritchie at Bell Labs. C was originally first implemented on the DEC PDP-11 computer in 1972.

It was mainly developed as a system programming language to write operating system. The main features of C language include low-level access to memory, simple set of keywords, and clean style, these features make C language suitable for system programming like operating system or compiler development. C programming is highly efficient. That’s the main reason why it’s very popular despite being more than 40 years old. Standard C programs are portable. The source code written in one system works in another operating system without any change.

C is a successor of B language which was introduced around the early 1970s. The language was formalized in 1988 by the American National Standard Institute (ANSI). Today’s most popular Linux OS and RDBMS MySQL have been written in C.

    Write a code to check whether a number is even or odd

    Q1.Write a code to check whether a number is even or odd

    Here you will find an algorithm and program to check whether a number is an even number or an odd number. First let us understand what is even and odd number.

    Even Number :- Even numbers are the numbers which are divisible by 2. For Example :- 2, 4, 6, 8…

    Odd Number :- Odd numbers are the numbers which are not divisible by 2. For Example :- 1, 3, 5, 7…

    Now let us understand what logic we need to use in this –
    As we know that, to know number is even or odd we used to check its divisibility with 2, so here we will check the remainder we get on dividing the input number with 2 if we get remainder as 0 then it is divisible by 2 and hence it is even number else it is odd number.

    For Example :-

    Input : 10
    Output : Even Number
    Explanation : As we can see that the number given in input, which is 10, on dividing with 2 we get remainder 0 therefore 10 is Even Number.

    Algorithm to check number is even or odd

    \\Algorithm to check number is even or odd.
    START
    Step 1: [ Take Input ] Read: Number N
    Step 2: Check: If N%2 == 0 Then
    Print : N is an Even Number.
    Else
    Print : N is an Odd Number.
    STOP

    Program to check whether the number is even or odd

    Output

    The number 10 is Even number

    Programming Multiple Choice Question -Array & String

    This section focuses on the “Array & String” of the C programming. These Multiple Choice Questions (mcq) should be practiced to improve the C programming skills required for various interviews (campus interview, walk-in interview, company interview), placement, entrance exam and other competitive examinations.

    1. How many keywords are there in c ?

    A. 31
    B. 64
    C. 32
    D. 63

    Ans : C
    Explanation: It will give compile time error because a is not declared.

    2. Which of the following is true for variable names in C?

    A. Reserved Word can be used as variable name
    B. Variable can be of any length
    C. They can contain alphanumeric characters as well as special characters
    D. Variable names cannot start with a digit

    Ans : A
    Explanation: Variable names cannot start with a digit in C Programming language.

    3. Find out the output of following program? if input a is 3 and b is 4

    A. 3
    B. 2
    C. runtime error
    D. compile time error

    Ans : B
    Explanation: In C, scanf returns the number of inputs it has successfully read it means here is two variable 3 and 4 so scanf return 2(successfully read)

    4. What is the output of this program?

    void main()
    {
    int x = 10;
    float x = 10;
    printf(“%d”, x)
    }

    A. 10,10
    B. 10
    C. Compilations Error
    D. 10.1

    Ans : C
    Explanation: Since the variable x is defined both as integer and as float, it results in an Compilations Error

    5.What is the output of this program?

    #include <stdio.h>
    int main()
    {
    int i;
    i = printf(“alfatechlab”);
    i = printf(“%d “, i);
    printf(“%d “, i);
    return 0;
    }

    A. Alfatechlab 11 3
    B. Alfatechlab 14 2
    C. Alfatechlab 12 3
    D. Compilation Error

    Ans : A
    Explanation: In C, printf() returns the number of characters successfully written on the output. Here Alfatechlab contain 11 character therefore i = 11 and then i is printed now again value of printf is assign but this time it print 3 since it contain 3 character %,d and space.
    i = printf(“alfatechlab”); // print 11
    i = printf(“%d “, i);// 3

    6. Output of this statement is :

    printf ( “%d” , printf ( “Alfatechlab” ) );

    A. Syntex Error
    B. Alfatechlab11
    C. gives garbage value
    D. print hello and terminates

    Ans : B
    Explanation: Firstly inner printf executes and will print Alfatechlab now this return the number of character printed that is 11 and this will be printed by outer printf . Hence output is Alfatechlab11

    7. What is the output of this program?

    #include <stdio.h>
    # define scanf “%s Learn Coding “
    main()
    {
    printf(scanf, scanf);
    return 0;
    }

    A. %s Learn Coding Learn Coding
    B. %s Learn Coding, %s Learn Coding
    C. Invalid Syntex
    D. Run time error

    Ans : B
    Explanation: printf statement will become printf(“%s Learn Coding, %s Learn Coding “);

    8. What is the output of this program?

    #include <stdio.h>
    int main()
    {
    printf(“%d”, main);

    }

    A. Goes in infinite loop
    B. Compilation Error
    C. Gives garbage value
    D. Gives Address of function main

    Ans : D
    Explanation: Name of the function is actually a pointer variable to the function and prints the address of the function.

    9. What is the output of this program?

    #include <stdio.h>
    int main()
    {
    int i;
    i = 4, 5, 6;
    printf(“%d”, i);
    return 0;
    }

    A. 4
    B. 5
    C. 6
    D. Invalid Syntax


    Ans : A
    Explanation: Associativity of comma operator is from left to right, but = operator has higher precedence than comma operator.Therefore the statement i = 4, 5, 6 is treated as i = 4 .

    10. Comment on the given statment:

    scanf(“%d”,i);

    A. Will give Segmentation fault
    B. Will execute without any error
    C. Will give Compilation Error
    D. None of the above

    Ans : A
    Explanation: A segmentation fault occurs when a program attempts to access a memory location that it is not allowed to access, or attempts to access a memory location in a way that is not allowed.So as we can see segmentation fault occurs because program attempts to access a memory location that it is not allowed to access.

    11. What is the output of this program?

    #include <stdio.h>
    int main()
    {
    int x = 1, y = 2;

    }

    A. 3
    B. 5
    C. Compilation Error
    D. Garbage Value

    Ans : B
    Explanation: the “*” above means or is used to specify the length of space required to print the integer and printf now takes two arguments one for space and other for integer so printf(“%*d”, x, y); will be print 5

    13. What is the output of this program?

    #include <stdio.h>

    return 0;
    }

    A. Runtime Error
    B. Improper representation of structure variable
    C. 2 3
    D. Compilation error

    Ans : D
    Explanation: It will give compilation error.

    21. What is the output of this program?

    int main() {
    int i=1;
    i=2+2*i++;
    printf(“%d”,i);
    return 0;
    }

    A. 2
    B. 3
    C. 4
    D. 5

    Ans : C
    Explanation: This is undefined behaviour, since i is modified more than once between sequence points. For instance, this compiler gives 4 as the answer, because it puts the increment after the assignment. Another reasonable answer is 6, if the increment is before the assignment.

    22. What is the output of this program?

    main ( )
    {
    int i;
    i=1;

    }

    A. 2
    B. 3
    C. 4
    D. 5

    Ans : C
    Explanation: This is undefined behavior, since i is modified more than once between sequence points. For instance, this compiler gives 4 as the answer, because it puts the increment after the assignment

    23. What is the output of this program?

    main()
    {
