C Objective Questions

<quiz display="simple"> {What is the output of this program? <syntaxhighlight lang="c" >

1. include<stdio.h>

int main() {

   char *ptr;
   char string[] = "How are you?";
   ptr = string;
   ptr += 4;
   printf("%s",ptr);
   return 0;

} </syntaxhighlight> |type="()" /} -(a) How are you?

+(b) are you?

-(c) are

-(d) No output ||ptr points to the start of the string and hence ptr+4 will point to the 5th char in the string. So, %s will print the characters from ptr+4 till \0 is encountered

{ Which of the following will print the value 2 for the above code? <syntaxhighlight lang="c">

1. include<stdio.h>

int main() {

   int a[10][20][30] = {0};
   a[5][2][1] = 2;

   return 0;

} </syntaxhighlight> |type="()" /} -(a) printf("%d",*(((a+5)+2)+1));

-(b) printf("%d",***((a+5)+2)+1);

+(c) printf("%d",*(*(*(a+5)+2)+1));

-(d) None of these ||* is the dereferencing operator and to access an element in a 3D array we have to dereference 3 times as in (c)

{ What is the output of the following program? <syntaxhighlight lang="c">

1. include<stdio.h>

int main() {

   int a = 5;
   int b = ++a * a++;
   printf("%d ",b);
   return 0;

} </syntaxhighlight> |type="()" /} -(a)25

-(b) 30

-(c) 36

+(d) Undefined Behavior ||In C language if we modify a variable more than once between two sequence points, undefined behavior results (output can be anything on any compiler) and arithmetic operators doesn't form sequence points

{What is the output of the following program? <syntaxhighlight lang="c">

1. include<stdio.h>

int main() {

   int a = 5;

   return 0;

} </syntaxhighlight> |type="()" /} +(a) 5

-(b) 4

-(c) 3

-(d) None of these ||In switch, a jump happens to the matching case (or else to default) and all statements below that are executed unless there is a break.

-(b) 2 5

-(c) 7 7

In b choice, 0x7ffffffff is taking more than 4 bytes and hence is considered a long int. So, the next operand is implicitly typecasted to long int and the result is also calculated as long int. Hence there'll be no overflow.
In d choice, by adding l at the end, we force the compiler to use long int operand and hence the operations will be done using 8 byte operands and there will be no overflow.

||
When we compare an int and a char, the char will be promoted to int by adding 0s to the left. So, signed integers less than 128 (the maximum value representable by a signed char is 127) will compare equal with char.

||When we compare a long and an int, int is promoted to long by adding 0s to the left. So, any long number than can be represented by an int will compare equal with int.

||Like above , float will be promoted to double. If the float number is exactly representable (without any approximation) within a float, then it'll compare equal with its double counterpart.

||Here, 5.2 cannot be exactly representable using a float. Hence, its double version will have more accuracy and won't compare equal with float.

||By default all real values are taken as double. If we want to take as float we have to use

if(a == 5.2f)
instead of

if(a == 5.2)
