Which of the following statements should be used to obtain a remainder after dividing 3.14 by 2.1 ? A. B. C. D. rem = 3.14 % 2.1; rem = modf(3.14, 2.1); rem = fmod(3.14, 2.1); Remainder cannot be obtain in floating point division.

Answer & Explanation

Answer: Option C Explanation: fmod(x,y) - Calculates x modulo y, the remainder of x/y. This function is the same as the modulus operator. But fmod() performs floating point divisions. Example:

#include <stdio.h> #include <math.h> int main () { printf ("fmod of 3.14/2.1 is %lf\n", fmod (3.14,2.1) ); return 0; }
Output: fmod of 3.14/2.1 is 1.040000 View Answer Online Compiler Report Discuss in Forum 2. What are the types of linkages? A. C. Internal and External External and None B. D. External, Internal and None Internal

Answer & Explanation

Answer: Option B Explanation: External Linkage-> means global, non-static variables and functions. Internal Linkage-> means static variables and functions with file scope. None Linkage-> means Local variables. View Answer Online Compiler Report Discuss in Forum

Which of the following special symbol allowed in a variable name? A. C. * (asterisk) - (hyphen) B. D. | (pipeline) _ (underscore)

Answer & Explanation

Answer: Option D Explanation: Variable names in C are made up of letters (upper and lower case) and digits. The underscore character ("_") is also permitted. Names must not begin with a digit. Examples of valid (but not very descriptive) C variable names: => foo => Bar => BAZ => foo_bar => _foo42 => _ => QuUx View Answer Online Compiler Report Discuss in Forum 4. Is there any difference between following declarations? 1 : extern int fun(); 2 : int fun(); A. B. C. D. Both are identical No difference, except extern int fun(); is probably in another file

int fun(); is overrided with extern int fun();

None of these

Answer & Explanation

Answer: Option B Explanation:

extern int fun(); declaration in C is to indicate the existence of a global function and it is
defined externally to the current module or in another file.

int fun(); declaration in C is to indicate the existence of a function inside the current
module or in the same file. View Answer Online Compiler Report Discuss in Forum 5. How would you round off a value from 1.66 to 2.0? A. C. ceil(1.66) roundup(1.66) B. D. floor(1.66) roundto(1.66)

Answer & Explanation

Answer: Option A Explanation:

/* Example for ceil() and floor() functions: */

#include<stdio.h> #include<math.h> int main() { printf("\n Result : %f" , ceil(1.44) ); printf("\n Result : %f" , ceil(1.66) ); printf("\n Result : %f" , floor(1.44) ); printf("\n Result : %f" , floor(1.66) ); return 0; } // Output: // Result : 2.000000 // Result : 2.000000 // Result : 1.000000 // Result : 1.000000

By default a real number is treated as a A. C. float long double B. D. double far double

Answer & Explanation

Answer: Option B Explanation: In computing, 'real number' often refers to non-complex floating-point numbers. It include both rational numbers, such as 42 and 3/4, and irrational numbers such as pi = 3.14159265... When the accuracy of the floating point number is insufficient, we can use thedouble to define the number. The double is same as float but with longer precision and takes double space (8 bytes) than float. To extend the precision further we can use long double which occupies 10 bytes of memory space.

2:

long int l = 2.35;

3:

enum day {Sun, Mon, Tue, Wed};

A.

B.

C.

D.

Both 1 and 2

Answer & Explanation

Answer: Option B Explanation: C data types classification are 1. Primary data types 1. int 2. char 3. float 4. double 5. void 2. Secondary data types (or) User-defined data type 1. Array 2. Pointer 3. Structure 4. Union 5. Enum So, clearly long int l = 2.35; is not User-defined data type. (i.e.long int l = 2.35; is the answer.) View Answer Online Compiler Report Discuss in Forum 8. Is the following statement a declaration or definition?

extern int i;
A. C. Declaration Function B. D. Definition Error

Answer & Explanation

Answer: Option A Explanation: Declaring is the way a programmer tells the compiler to expect a particular type, be it a variable, class/struct/union type, a function type (prototype) or a particular object instance. (ie. extern int i) Declaration never reserves any space for the variable or instance in the program's memory; it simply a "hint" to the compiler that a use of the variable or instance is expected in the program. This hinting is technically called "forward reference". View Answer Online Compiler Report Discuss in Forum 9. Identify which of the following are declarations 1 : extern int x; 2 : float square ( float x ) { ... } 3 : double pow(double, double); A. C. 1 1 and 3 B. D. 2 3

Answer & Explanation

Answer: Option C Explanation: extern int x; - is an external variable declaration.

double pow(double, double); - is a function prototype declaration. Therefore, 1 and 3 are declarations. 2 is definition. View Answer Online Compiler Report Discuss in Forum 10. In the following program where is the variable a getting defined and where it is getting declared?

#include<stdio.h>
int main() { extern int a; printf("%d\n", a); return 0; } int a=20; A. B. C. D.

extern int a is declaration, int a = 20 is the definition int a = 20 is declaration, extern int a is the definition int a = 20 is definition, a is not defined a is declared, a is not defined

Answer & Explanation

Answer: Option A Explanation: - During declaration we tell the datatype of the Variable. - During definition the value is initialized.

11. When we mention the prototype of a function? [A]. [C]. Defining Prototyping [B]. [D]. Declaring

Calling

Answer: Option B Explanation: A function prototype in C or C++ is a declaration of a function that omits the function body but does specify the function's name, argument types and return type. While a function definition specifies what a function does, a function prototype can be thought of as specifying its interface.
