Preface
Dear Students,
This book is intended for anyone, who is interested in knowing about computers and basics of C++. We are extremely happy to come out with this book on “Expertise your C” for students of all the streams in BCA. I have divided the syllabus into the small chapters so that the topics can be arranged properly. The topics within the chapters have been arranged in a proper sequence to ensure smooth flow of the subject. The book has been thoughtfully structured to serve as an ideal textbook for various courses offered in computer science.
We thankful to great Almighty and especially to our parents for the encouragement and support that they have extended. We have made every possible effort to eliminate all the errors in this book. However if you find any, please let us know, that will improve us further.

Chapter 1 Declaration Initializations
Questions
1.1 What will be the output of the following program?
#include stdio.h
int main()
{
extern int i;
i = 20;
printf("%d\n", sizeof(i));
return 0;
}
A. 2
B. 4
C. Vary compiler to compiler
D. Linker error
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Linker Error : Undefined symbol 'i'
The statement extern int i specifies to the compiler that the memory for 'i' is allocated in some other program and that address will be given to the current program at the time of linking. But linker finds that no other variable of name 'i' is available in any other program with memory space allocated for it. Hence a linker error has occurred.
1.2 What will be the output of the following program?
#include stdio.h
extern int i=3;
int main()
{
i = 20;
printf("%d\n",i);
return 0;
}
A. 20
B. 3
C. Vary compiler to compiler
D. Linker error
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Extern variable will work when you take the variable outside the main function as shown in the example below.
1.3 What will be the output of the following program?
#include stdio.h
extern int i=3;
int main()
{
i = 20;
printf("%d\n",i);
void disp();
disp();
return 0;
}
void disp()
{
printf("%d",i);
}
A. 20 3
B. 3 20
C. 20
D. 3
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
First printf() will take the variable declared inside the main function and then it will call the function and gives the output as 3 20.
1.4 What will be the output of the following program?
#include stdio.h
int main()
{
char *s1;
char far *s2;
char huge *s3;
printf("%d, %d, %d\n", sizeof(s1), sizeof(s2), sizeof(s3));
return 0;
}
A. 2 ,4 ,6
B. 4, 4, 2
C. 2, 4, 4
D. 2, 2, 2
Answer: Option C
Any pointer size is 2 bytes.
So, char *s1 = 2 bytes.
So, char far *s2; = 4 bytes.
So, char huge *s3; = 4 bytes.
A far, huge pointer has two parts: a 16-bit segment value and a 16-bit offset value.
1.5 What will be the output of the following program?
#include stdio.h
int main()
{
struct stu
{
char name[20];
float age;
int rn;
};

3.7 What will be the output of the following program?
#include stdio.h
void fun(int*, int*);
int main()
{
int i=5, j=2;
fun(i, j);
printf("%d, %d", i, j);
return 0;
}
void fun(int *i, int *j)
{
*i = *i**i;
*j = *j**j;
}
a) 5,2
b) 4,6
c) 2,5
d) 25,4
Answer: d
Explanation:
Step 1: int i=5, j=2; Here variable i and j are declared as an integer type and initialized to 5 and 2 respectively.
Step 2: fun(i, j); Here the function fun() is called with two parameters i and j (The denotes call by reference. So the address of the variable i and j are passed. )
Step 3: void fun(int *i, int *j) This function is called by reference, so we have to use * before the parameters.
Step 4: *i = *i**i; Here *i denotes the value of the variable i. We are multiplying 5*5 and storing the result 25 in same variable i.
Step 5: *j = *j**j; Here *j denotes the value of the variable j. We are multiplying 2*2 and storing the result 4 in same variable j.
Step 6: Then the function void fun(int *i, int *j) return back the control back to main() function.
Step 7: printf("%d, %d", i, j); It prints the value of variable i and j.
3.8 What is the output of the following program?
#include stdio.h
int reverse(int);
int main()
{
int no=5;
reverse(no);
return 0;
}
int reverse(int no)
{
if(no == 0)
return 0;
else
printf("%d,", no);
reverse (no--);
}
a) Print 5,4,3,2,1
b) Print 1,2,3,4,5
c) Print 5,4,3,2,1,0
d) Infinite loop.
Answer: d
Explanation:
Step 1: int no=5; The variable no is declared as integer type and initialized to 5.
Step 2: reverse(no); becomes reverse(5); It calls the function reverse() with '5' as parameter.
The function reverse accept an integer number 5 and it returns '0'(zero) if(5 == 0) if the given number is '0'(zero) or else printf("%d,", no); it prints that number 5 and calls the function reverse(5);.
The function runs infinetely because the there is a post-decrement operator is used. It will not decrease the value of 'n' before calling the reverse() function. So, it calls reverse(5) infinitely.
Note: If we use pre-decrement operator like reverse(--n), then the output will be 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Because before calling the function, it decrements the value of 'n'.
3.9
How many times the program will print "Programming”?
int main()
{
printf("Programming");
main();
return 0;
}
a) Infinite times
b) 32767 times
c) 0 times
d) Till stack overflow
Answer: d
Explanation:
A call stack or function stack is used for several related purposes, but the main reason for having one is to keep track of the point to which each active subroutine should return control when it finishes executing.
A stack overflow occurs when too much memory is used on the call stack.
Here function main() is called repeatedly and its return address is stored in the stack. After stack memory is full. It shows stack overflow error.

printf("%d", ++x);
}
a) prints 012
b) prints 123
c) prints 3 consecutive, but unpredictable numbers
d) prints 111
Option: b
Explanation :
By default x will be initialized to 0. Since its storage class is static, it presents its exit value ( and forbids re initialization on re-entry ). So, 123 will be printed.
3.27 What is the output of the following code?
void fun(int*, int*);
int main()
{
int i=5, j=2;
fun(i, j);
printf("%d, %d", i, j);
return 0;
}
void fun(int *i, int *j)
{
*i = *i**i;
*j = *j**j;
}
a) 5 2
b) 10 4
c) 2 5
d) 25 4
Answer: d
Explanation:
Step 1: int i=5, j=2; Here variable i and j are declared as an integer type and initialized to 5 and 2 respectively.
Step 2: fun(i, j); Here the function fun() is called with two parameters i and j (The denotes call by reference. So the address of the variable i and j are passed. )
Step 3: void fun(int *i, int *j) This function is called by reference, so we have to use * before the parameters.
Step 4: *i = *i**i; Here *i denotes the value of the variable i. We are multiplying 5*5 and storing the result 25 in same variable i.
Step 5: *j = *j**j; Here *j denotes the value of the variable j. We are multiplying 2*2 and storing the result 4 in same variable j.
Step 6: Then the function void fun(int *i, int *j) return back the control back to main() function.
Step 7: printf("%d, %d", i, j); It prints the value of variable i and j.
Hence the output is 25, 4.
3.28 What will be the output of the program?
int reverse(int);
int main()
{
int no=5;
reverse(no);
return 0;
}
int reverse(int no)
{
if(no == 0)
return 0;
else
printf("%d,", no);
reverse (no--);
}
a) Print 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
b) Print 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
c) Print 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0
d) Infinite loop
Answer: d
Explanation:
Step 1: int no=5; The variable no is declared as integer type and initialized to 5.
Step 2: reverse(no); becomes reverse(5); It calls the function reverse() with '5' as parameter.
The function reverse accept an integer number 5 and it returns '0'(zero) if(5 == 0) if the given number is '0'(zero) or else printf("%d,", no); it prints that number 5 and calls the function reverse(5);.
The function runs infinetely because the there is a post-decrement operator is used. It will not decrease the value of 'n' before calling the reverse() function. So, it calls reverse(5) infinitely.
Note: If we use pre-decrement operator like reverse(--n), then the output will be 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Because before calling the function, it decrements the value of 'n'.

return 0;
}
a) 90.500000
3
b) 90.500000
12
c) 10.000000
12
d) 0.500000
3
Answer: a
Explanation: When we add a value x to a pointer p, the value of the resultant expression is p + x*sizeof(*p) where sizeof(*p) means size of data type pointed by p. That is why ptr2 is incremented to point to arr[3] in the above code. Same rule applies for subtraction. Note that only integral values can be added or subtracted from a pointer. We can also subtract or compare two pointers of same type.
4.13 The reason for using pointers in a C program is
a) Pointers allow different functions to share and modify their local variables.
b) To pass large structures so that complete copy of the structure can be avoided
c) Pointers enable complex “linked” data structures like linked lists and binary trees.
d) All of the above
Answer: (D)
Explanation: See below explanation
(A) With pointers, address of variables can be passed different functions can use this address to access the variables.
(B) When large structure variables passed or returned, they are copied as everything is passed and returned by value in C. This can be costly with structure containing large data. To avoid this copying of large variables, we generally use poitner for large structures so that only address is copied.
(C) With pointers, we can implement “linked” data structures. Java uses reference variables to implement these data structures. Note that C doesn’t support reference variables.
4.14 What is the output of the following code?
#include stdio.h
int main()
{
int arr[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
int *p = arr;
++*p;
p += 2;
printf("%d", *p);
return 0;
}
a) 2
b) 3
c) 4
d) Compile Error
Answer: (B)
Explanation: The expression ++*p is evaluated as “++(*p)” . So it increments the value of first element of array (doesn’t change the pointer p).
When p += 2 is done, p is changed to point to third element of array.
4.15 What is the output of this C code?

p[1] = 'c';
printf(p, 65);
return 0;
}
a) A
b) a
c) c
d) 65
Answer: a
Explanation:
Step 1 : char p[] = "%d\n"; The variable p is declared as an array of characters and initialized with string "%d".
Step 2 : p[1] = 'c'; Here, we overwrite the second element of array p by 'c'. So array p becomes "%c".
Step 3 : printf(p, 65); becomes printf("%c", 65);
Therefore it prints the ASCII value of 65. The output is 'A'.

6.10 Which of the following statements are correct about the program below?
#include stdio.h
void main()
{
int size, i;
scanf("%d", size);
int arr[size];
for(i=1; i =size; i++)
{
scanf("%d", arr[i]);
printf("%d", arr[i]);
}
}
a) The code is erroneous since the statement declaring array is invalid.
b) The code is erroneous since the subscript for array used in for loop is in the range 1 to size.
c) The code is correct and runs successfully.
d) The code is erroneous since the values of array are getting scanned through the loop.
Answer: a
Explanation: The statement int arr[size]; produces an error, because we cannot initialize the size of array dynamically. Constant expression is required here.
Example: int arr[10];
One more point is there, that is, usually declaration is not allowed after calling any function in a current block of code. In the given program the declaration int arr[10]; is placed after a function call scanf().

Explanation : Bitwise AND () operator copies bit(s), if they are exist both of the operands. Here, binary of a is "1010" and binary of b is "0010". Thus, result of expression (a b) is "0010" which is equivalent to 2 in Decimal.
7.22 Predict the output of following program.
#include stdio.h
#define MOBILE 0x01
#define LAPPY 0x02
int main()
{
unsigned char item=0x00;
item |=MOBILE;
item |=LAPPY;
printf("I have purchased ...:");
if (item MOBILE){
printf("Mobile, ");
}
if (item LAPPY){
printf("Lappy");
}
return 1;
}
a) I have purchased ...:
b) I have purchased ...:Mobile, Lappy
c) I have purchased ...:Mobile,
d) I have purchased ...:Lappy
Answer: b
I have purchased ...:Mobile, Lappy
Bitwise OR (|) operator copies bit(s), if they are exist either side of the operands (that means if any bit is exist in any operand). Here, binary of Macro MOBILE (0x01) is "0001" and binary of Macro LAPPY (0x02) is "0010", then result of the expression item |=MOBILE; will be "0001" and second expression item |=LAPPY; will return "0011". Thus, both conditions (item MOBILE) and (item LAPPY) will be true.
7.23 Consider the given statement:

_______________________
0 0 0
0 1 1
1 0 1
1 1 0
Here, binary of 10 is "1010" and binary of 2 is "0010", then the result of statement (10 ^ 2) will be "1000", which is equivalent to 8 in decimal.

printf("%d %d", ++a, b++);
}
a) 11 7
b) 12 8
c) 6 6
d) 6 7
Answer: Option C
Solution:
Here if condition evaluates to true as a non-zero value i.e 5 is assigned to a.
So the value of a = 5 and after increment value of b = 6.
In printf statement due to pre-increment of a value of a printed will be 6 and due to post-increment of b value of b printed will be 6 and not 7.

Decrement operator in for loop statement are executed until the condition is true.
So it is executed till "a" not equal to zero and printf statement inside for loop print a value of "a"
8.19 What will be the output of given program?
#include stdio.h
void main()
{
int i=1, j=-1;
if((printf("%d", i)) (printf("%d", j)))
printf("%d", i);
else
printf("%d", j);
}
a) 1 -1 1
b) 1 -1 -1
c) 1
d) -1
Answer: a
Solution: Here if statement is executed since we know that printf() function return the number of character print.
Here printf("%d", i) return 2 because it print 1 and newline i.e 2.
And, printf("%d', j) return 3 because it print -1 and newline i.e number of character is 3.
Therefore if statement look like if(2 3) yes its true.
So if statement will execute. And answer is 1 -1 1.

return 0;
}
a) 9 4
b) 27 4
c) 27 6
d) None of above
Answer: c
Explanation:
The macro function CUBE(x) (x*x*x) calculates the cubic value of given number(Eg: 103.)
Step 1: int a, b=3; The variable a and b are declared as an integer type and varaible b id initialized to 3.
Step 2: a = CUBE(b++); becomes
= a = b++ * b++ * b++;
= a = 3 * 3 * 3; Here we are using post-increement operator, so the 3 is not incremented in this statement.
= a = 27; Here, 27 is store in the variable a. By the way, the value of variable b is incremented by 3. (ie: b=6)
Step 3: printf("%d, %d\n", a, b); It prints the value of variable a and b.
Hence the output of the program is 27, 6.

#define SWAP(a, b, c)(c t; t=a, a=b, b=t)
int main()
{
int x=10, y=20;
SWAP(x, y, int);
printf("%d %d", x, y);
return 0;
}
a) It compiles
b) Not Compiles
c) Compiles but print nothing
d) Run time error

9.18 What will be output if you will compile and execute the following c code?
#include
#define x 5+2
int main(){
int i;
i=x*x*x;
printf("%d",i);
return 0;
}
a) 27
b) 343
c) 222
d) Error
Answer: a
Explanation : As we know #define is token pasting preprocessor it only paste the value of micro constant in the program before the actual compilation start. If you will see intermediate file you will find:
test.c 1:
test.c 2: void main(){
test.c 3: int i;
test.c 4: i=5+2*5+2*5+2;
test.c 5: printf("%d",i);
test.c 6: }
test.c 7:
You can absorb #define only pastes the 5+2 in place of x in program. So, i=5+2*5+2*5+2
=5+10+10+2
=27

Chapter 10 Floating Point Issues
10.1 What will you do to treat the constant 3.14 as a long double?
a) use 3.14LD
b) use 3.14L
c) use 3.14DL
d) use 3.14LF
Answer: Option B
Explanation:
Given 3.14 is a double constant.
To specify 3.14 as long double, we have to add L to the 3.14. (i.e 3.14L)
10.2 Which of the following range is a valid long double (Turbo C in 16 bit DOS OS) ?
a) 3.4E-4932 to 1.1E+4932
b) 3.4E-4932 to 3.4E+4932
c) 1.1E-4932 to 1.1E+4932
d) 1.7E-4932 to 1.7E+4932
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
The range of long double is 3.4E-4932 to 1.1E+4932
10.3 Which statement will you add in the following program to work it correctly?
#include stdio.h
int main()
{
printf("%f\n", log(36.0));
return 0;
}
a) #include conio.h
b) #include math.h
c) #include iostream.h
d) #include dos.h
Answer: b
Explanation:
math.h is a header file in the standard library of C programming language designed for basic mathematical operations.
10.4 We want to round off x, a float, to an int value, The correct way to do is
a) y = (int)(x + 0.5)
b) y = int(x + 0.5)
c) y = (int)x + 0.5
d) y = (int)((int)x + 0.5)
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
Rounding off a value means replacing it by a nearest value that is approximately equal or smaller or greater to the given number.
y = (int)(x + 0.5); here x is any float value. To roundoff, we have to typecast the value of x by using (int)

union {
float y;
long z;
}u;
} t;
a) 22 bytes
b) 18 bytes
c) 20 bytes
d) 30 bytes
Answer: b
Explanation: Short array s[5] will take 10 bytes as size of short is 2 bytes. When we declare a union, memory allocated for the union is equal to memory needed for the largest member of it, and all members share this same memory space. Since u is a union, memory allocated to u will be max of float y(4 bytes) and long z(8 bytes). So, total size will be 18 bytes (10 + 8).

ft = fopen(target, "w");
while(1)
{
ch=getc(fs);
if(ch==EOF)
break;
else
{
fseek(fs, 4L, SEEK_CUR);
fputc(ch, ft);
}
}
return 0;
}
a) r n
b) Trh
c) err
d) None of above
Answer: b
Explanation:
The file source.txt is opened in read mode and target.txt is opened in write mode. The file source.txt contains "To err is human".
Inside the while loop,
ch=getc(fs); The first character('T') of the source.txt is stored in variable ch and it's checked for EOF.
if(ch==EOF) If EOF(End of file) is true, the loop breaks and program execution stops.
If not EOF encountered, fseek(fs, 4L, SEEK_CUR); the file pointer advances 4 character from the current position. Hence the file pointer is in 5th character of file source.txt.
fputc(ch, ft); It writes the character 'T' stored in variable ch to target.txt.
The while loop runs three times and it write the character 1st and 5th and 11th characters ("Trh") in the target.txt file.
12.17 Out of fgets() and gets() which function is safe to use?
a) fgets()
b) gets()
Answer: a
Explanation: Because, In fgets() we can specify the size of the buffer into which the string supplied will be stored.
12.18 What will be the output of the following code if the value 25 is given to scanf()?
#include stdio.h
int main()
{
int i;
printf("%d\n", scanf("%d", i));
return 0;
}
a) 25
b) 2
c) 1
d) 5
Answer: c
Explanation:
The scanf function returns the number of input is given.
printf("%d\n", scanf("%d", i)); The scanf function returns the value 1(one).
Therefore, the output of the program is '1'.
12.19 Which of the following statement is correct about the program?
#include stdio.h
int main()
{
FILE *fp;
char str[11], ch;
int i=0;
fp = fopen("INPUT.TXT", "r");
while((ch=getc(fp))!=EOF)
{
if(ch == '\n' || ch == ' ')
{
str[i]='\0';
strrev(str);
printf("%s", str);
i=0;
}
else
str[i++]=ch;
}
fclose(fp);
return 0;
}
a) The code writes a text to a file
b) The code reads a text files and display its content in reverse order
c) The code writes a text to a file in reverse order
d) None of above
Answer: b
Explanation This program reads the file INPUT.TXT and store it in the string str after reversing the string using strrev function.
