HP c/c++ section:
There are C or C++ programs for which you have to find the output. Or you have to find out the error in the program code.
1 main( )
{
unsigned int i=3;
while( i >=0)
printf( “%d”, i–);
}
how many times will the printf stmt be executed?
a)0 b)3 c)4 d)infinite
Ans: I think the answer is infinite, b’cos ‘i’ is an unsigned integer and it will not
decrement below ‘0′ and hence end up in an infinite loop.(yes, i checked and it
is getting stuck in an infinite loop)
2. main( )
{
int x,y, z;
x=2;
y=5;
z= x+++y;
printf(”%d %d %d”, x, y z);
}
a)3 5 7 b)option 2 c)option 3 d)option 4
Ans: a
3 # define swap(a,b) temp=a; a=b; b=temp;
main( )
{
int i, j, temp;
i=5;
j=10;
temp=0;
if( i > j)
swap( i, j );
printf( “%d %d %d”, i, j, temp);
}
Ans: On compiling i got ans 10, 0, 0. I did not understand the concept. Please
expalin this to me.
