C language quiz questions and answers with explanation  


(1) What will be output if you will compile and execute the following c code?

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
  int a=5;
  float b;
  printf("%d",sizeof(++a+b));
  printf(" %d",a); 
  return 0;
}


(a)2 6
(b)4 6
(c)2 5
(d)4 5
(e)Compiler error

Output: (d)
Explanation:
++a +b
=6 + Garbage floating point number
=Garbage floating point number
//From the rule of automatic type conversion
Hence sizeof operator will return 4 because size of float data type in c is 4 byte.
Value of any variable doesn’t modify inside sizeof operator. Hence value of variable a will remain 5.

Properties of sizeof operator.

First ++a will pass and a=11
Then a++ will pass and a=11
Then a will pass and a=12

(a)17
(b)18
(c)21
(d)22

Properties of register storage class.

(7) What will be output if you will compile and execute the following c code?

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
  int a=5;
  int b=10;
  {

    a++;
    b++;
  }
  printf("%d %d",a,b); 
  return 0;
}


(a)5 10
(b)6 11
(c)5 11
(d)6 10
(e)Compiler error

Output: (c)
Explanation:
Default storage class of local variable is auto. Scope and visibility of auto variable is within the block in which it has declared. In c, if there are two variables of the same name then we can access only local variable. Hence inside the inner block variable a is local variable which has declared and defined inside that block. When control comes out of the inner block local variable a became dead.

  return 0;
}


(a)-22
(b)-18
(c)1
(d)Compiler error
(e)None of above

Explanation:
Default value of enum constant = value of previous enum constant +1
Default value of first enum constant=0
Hence:
BLUE=GREEN+1=-20+1=-19
YELLOW=BLUE+1=-19+1=-18

(10) What will be output if you will compile and execute the following c code?

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
  asm{

}


(a)1
(b)48
(c)24
(d)Not equal
(e)Compiler error

Output: (c)
Explanation:
Associative of bitwise left shifting operator is left to right. In the following expression:
i<<2<<1
There are two bitwise operators. From rule of associative leftmost operator will execute first.
i <<><<>
After execution of leftmost bitwise left shifting operator:
so i=i*pow(2,2)
=3*
What is associative?
What is precedence?

(19) What will be output if you will compile and execute the following c code?

#include<stdio.h>

  int x=2,y=3;
  if(x+y<=5)
    printf("True");
  else
    printf("False");
}


(a)True
(b)False
(c)Compiler error: Lvalued required
(d)Compiler error: Invalid expression
(e)None of above

Output: (a)
Explanation:

=> 2+3 <=5
=> 5<=5 is true because 5 is either greater than 5 or equal to 5.
(20) What will be output if you will compile and execute the following c code?

(21) What will be output if you will compile and execute the following c code?

#include<stdio.h>

int main(){
  int i=11;
  int const * p=&i;
  p++;
  printf("%d",*p); 
  return 0;
}


(a)11
(b) 12
(c)Garbage value
(d)Compiler error
(e)None of above

Output: (c)
Explanation:
In the following line:
int const * p=&i;
*p i.e. content of p is constant pointer p is not constant pointer. So we can modify the pointer p. After incrementing the pointer it will point next memory location and its content will any garbage value.



Note: We have assumed arbitrary memory address.

To make pointer p as constant pointer write:
int const * const p=&i;
Properties of const keyword.
Properties of volatile keyword.

(22) What will be output if you will compile and execute the following c code?

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
  int a=15,b=10,c=5;
  if(a>b>c )
    printf("Trre");
  else
    printf("False"); 
  return 0;
}


(a)True
(b)False
(c)Run time error
(d)Compiler error
(e)None of above

Output: (b)
Explanation:
Relation operator in c always returns 1 when condition is true and 0 when condition is false. So in the following expression
a > b > c
Associative of relational operators are left to right order of execution will be following manner:




Hence in this expression first solve bolded condition: a > b > c
Since condition a>b is true so result will be 1. Now expression became:
1 > c
Since this condition is false so result will be 0. Thus else part will execute.
What is associative?
What is precedence?

Output: (c)
Explanation:
In the following expression:
f=3/2 both 3 and 2 are integer constant hence its result will also be an integer constant i.e. 1.
