    An expression contains relational, assignment and arithmetic operators. If parenthesis are not specified, the order of evaluation of the operators would be:

    • A.

      Assignment, arithmetic, relational

    • B.

      Arithmetic, relational, assignment

    • C.

      Assignment, relational, arithmetic

    • D.

      Relational, assignment, arithmetic

    Correct Answer
    B. Arithmetic, relational, assignment
    Explanation
    The given answer is "arithmetic, relational, assignment". In an expression without specified parentheses, the arithmetic operators are evaluated first, followed by the relational operators, and finally the assignment operators. This order ensures that any necessary calculations are performed before making comparisons and assigning values to variables.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    In an assignment statement a=b; which of the following statement is true ?

    • A.

      The variable a and the variable b are same.

    • B.

      The value of b is assigned to variable a but if b changes later, it will not effect the value of variable a.

    • C.

      The value of b is assigned to variable a but if b changes later, it will effect the value of variable a

    • D.

      The value of variable a is assigned to variable b, and the value of variable b is asssigned to variable a.

    Correct Answer
    B. The value of b is assigned to variable a but if b changes later, it will not effect the value of variable a.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is that the value of b is assigned to variable a but if b changes later, it will not affect the value of variable a. This is because in an assignment statement, the value of the variable on the right side of the assignment operator (=) is assigned to the variable on the left side. However, any changes made to the variable on the right side after the assignment will not affect the value of the variable on the left side.

    The result of a relational operator is always

    • A.

      Greater than or Less than

    • B.

      Greater Than or Equal to

    • C.

      True OR False

    • D.

      False OR False

    Correct Answer
    C. True OR False
    Explanation
    The result of a relational operator can be either true or false, depending on the comparison being made. For example, if we compare two numbers using the greater than operator, the result will be true if the first number is indeed greater than the second number, and false otherwise. Similarly, if we compare two strings using the equal to operator, the result will be true if the two strings are equal, and false otherwise. Therefore, the correct answer is "True OR False" because the result of a relational operator can be either true or false.

    Rate this question:

  • 25. 

    Which of the following is not a valid declaration in C?

    • A.

      Short int x

    • B.

      Signed short x

    • C.

      Short x

    • D.

      Unsigned short x

    Correct Answer
    D. Unsigned short x
    Explanation
    All the given declarations are valid in C except for "unsigned short x". In C, the "unsigned" keyword is used to declare variables that can only hold positive values or zero. However, "short" is a valid data type in C, and it can be used with or without the "signed" keyword. Therefore, the declaration "unsigned short x" is not valid because it combines the "unsigned" and "short" keywords, which is not allowed in C.

    • C.

      65

    • D.

      97

    Correct Answer
    D. 97
    Explanation
    The given code snippet declares a variable 'a' of type char and assigns it the value 'a'. The printf statement is used to print the value of 'a' as an integer using the %d format specifier. In ASCII, the character 'a' has an integer value of 97. Therefore, the code will output 97.

    Rate this question:

  • 27. 

    Int main() {char a = 125'; a = a + 10; printf("%d", a); return 0;}

    • A.

    • B.

      125

    • C.

      -121

    • D.

      -135

    Correct Answer
    C. -121
    Explanation
    In this code, the variable 'a' is declared as a char with an initial value of 125. Then, 'a' is incremented by 10. However, since a char can only hold values from -128 to 127, the value of 'a' overflows and wraps around to -121. Therefore, when the value of 'a' is printed using printf, it will display -121.

    Rate this question:

    For a 2 bit integer int main() {int a = 40000; printf("%d", a); return 0;}

    • A.

      40000

    • B.

      32768

    • C.

      -25536

    • D.

      Compiler Error

    Correct Answer
    C. -25536
    Explanation
    The given code declares an integer variable 'a' and assigns it a value of 40000. However, since a 2-bit integer can only represent values from -2^(n-1) to 2^(n-1)-1 (where n is the number of bits), the value 40000 is outside the range and overflows. As a result, the value of 'a' becomes -25536, which is the equivalent value after the overflow. Thus, the correct answer is -25536.

    Int main() { printf("%d", sizeof(long long int)); }

    • A.

      Warning Message related to int

    • B.

      6

    • C.

      8

    • D.

      Both (A) and (B)

    Correct Answer
    D. Both (A) and (B)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is both (A) and (B). The warning message related to int is because the code is using the %d format specifier in the printf function, which expects an int argument. However, the sizeof operator returns a value of type size_t, which is typically an unsigned integer type. Therefore, there is a mismatch between the format specifier and the argument type, resulting in a warning. The value printed is 8, which is the size in bytes of a long long int on the particular system where the code is being executed.

    • C.

      6

    • D.

      Both (A) and (B)

    Correct Answer
    A. Error
    Explanation
    The code will produce an error because "long long double" is not a valid data type in C. It seems to be a combination of two different data types, "long long" and "double", which are not allowed to be combined in this way. Therefore, the code will not compile and an error will be thrown.

    • C.

      212

    • D.

      333

    Correct Answer
    A. 323
    Explanation
    The code snippet starts by initializing the variable 'a' with a value of 1. Then, the printf statement is used to print the values of 'a', 'a++', and '++a'.

    The expression 'a++' means that the current value of 'a' is used in the printf statement, and then 'a' is incremented by 1. So, the first 'a' in the printf statement will be 1.

    The expression '++a' means that 'a' is incremented by 1, and then the new value of 'a' is used in the printf statement. So, the third 'a' in the printf statement will be 3.

    Therefore, the output of the printf statement will be "323", which matches the given answer.

    • C.

      331

    • D.

      321

    Correct Answer
    B. 231
    Explanation
    The expression `b++` is a post-increment operator, which means that the value of `b` is incremented after it is used in the expression. In the `printf` statement, the order of evaluation is from right to left. So, `b++` is evaluated first and the value of `b` becomes 2. Then, `b` is evaluated as 2 in the second `b` in the `printf` statement. Finally, `b++` is evaluated again and the value of `b` becomes 3. Therefore, the output is "231".

    Correct Answer
    C. 7
    Explanation
    The bitwise OR operator "|" is used to perform a bitwise OR operation on the binary representations of two integers. In this case, the binary representation of 3 is 0011 and the binary representation of 4 is 0100. Performing the OR operation on these two binary numbers results in 0111, which is equal to 7 in decimal form. Therefore, the correct answer is 7.

    • D.

      0

    Correct Answer
    B. 1
    Explanation
    The expression "3>>1" is a right shift operation in C. In this case, it means shifting the bits of the number 3 to the right by 1 position. Shifting a number to the right by 1 is equivalent to dividing it by 2. Therefore, the result of "3>>1" is 1.

    • D.

      2

    Correct Answer
    A. 0
    Explanation
    The code snippet `printf("%d", 0&&4);` uses the logical AND operator (`&&`) to evaluate the expression `0&&4`. In this case, the expression evaluates to `0` because both operands are non-zero values. According to the rules of the logical AND operator, if any of the operands is `0`, the result is `0`. Therefore, the output of the `printf` statement will be `0`.

    A. 1
    Explanation
    The given code snippet defines a macro function ISEQUAL(X, Y) which checks if X is equal to Y. In the main function, X and Y are declared as integers. Then, the printf statement prints the result of calling the ISEQUAL macro with X as the first argument and 0 as the second argument. Since X is not initialized, its value is undefined. Therefore, the result of the comparison X==0 is unpredictable, and the output can be either 1 or 0.

      0

    Correct Answer
    D. 0
    Explanation
    The code defines a macro function ISEQUAL that takes two arguments X and Y and checks if X is equal to Y using the equality operator ==. In the main function, variables X and Y are declared. The printf statement prints the result of calling the ISEQUAL macro function with X as the first argument and 1 as the second argument. Since X is not initialized, its value is undefined, and the result of the comparison will be unpredictable. Therefore, the output could be any value, but it is most likely to be 0.

    • C.

      Both A and B

    • D.

      None

    Correct Answer
    A. 1
    Explanation
    The expression "5 && 4" is a logical AND operation. In C programming, the logical AND operator (&&) returns true (1) if both operands are non-zero, and false (0) otherwise. Since both 5 and 4 are non-zero, the result of the logical AND operation is true (1). Therefore, the value of the variable "a" is 1. When we use the printf function to print the value of "a", it will output "1".

    • D.

      1

    Correct Answer
    D. 1
    Explanation
    The code initializes the variable 'a' and assigns it the result of the bitwise AND operation between 5 and 4. The bitwise AND operation compares the binary representation of the two numbers and returns a new number where each bit is set to 1 only if the corresponding bits in both numbers are also 1. In this case, the binary representation of 5 is 101 and the binary representation of 4 is 100. Performing the bitwise AND operation, we get 100, which is equal to 4 in decimal. Therefore, the correct answer is 4.

    • C.

      2

    • D.

      10

    Correct Answer
    C. 2
    Explanation
    The given code calculates the bitwise XOR of 15 and 13, which results in 2. The XOR operation compares the corresponding bits of two numbers and returns 1 if they are different, and 0 if they are the same. In this case, the binary representation of 15 is 1111 and the binary representation of 13 is 1101. When performing the XOR operation, the bits that are different are set to 1, resulting in the binary representation of 2, which is 0010. Therefore, the value of variable 'a' is 2, and when printed using printf, it will display 2.

    • B.

      A_B

    • C.

      If

    • D.

      AB@3

    Correct Answer
    B. A_B
    Explanation
    The correct way of variable declaration is A_B. Variable names can only contain letters, numbers, and underscores, and must start with a letter or an underscore. The option 1A_B is incorrect because it starts with a number. The option "if" is incorrect because it is a reserved keyword in most programming languages and cannot be used as a variable name. The option AB@3 is incorrect because it contains a special character (@) which is not allowed in variable names.

      5

    Correct Answer
    B. 0
    Explanation
    In this code, the variable "a" is assigned the value of the logical OR operation between 5 and 0. The logical OR operator returns true (1) if either of the operands is true, and false (0) if both operands are false. In this case, 5 is considered true, and 0 is considered false. Since the logical OR operation only needs one true value to return true, the value of "a" is 1. However, when printing "a" using the printf function, the format specifier %d is used, which is used to print integers. Therefore, the value of "a" is printed as 0.

    • D.

      1

    Correct Answer
    A. 5
    Explanation
    The given code assigns the value 10 to the variable 'a' and then performs a right shift operation on 'a' by 1 bit. The right shift operation divides 'a' by 2, effectively halving its value. Therefore, the value of 'a' after the right shift operation is 5. The code then prints the value of 'a', which is 5.

    • C.

      22, 23

    • D.

      23, 22

    Correct Answer
    C. 22, 23
    Explanation
    In this code snippet, the variable x is initially assigned the value 23. Then, the post-decrement operator (--) is used to decrement the value of x by 1. However, since the post-decrement operator is used, the value of x is first assigned to y and then decremented. Therefore, the value of y remains 23. Finally, the printf statement prints the values of x and y, which are 22 and 23 respectively.
