    An array Index starts with.?

    • -1

    • 0

    • 1

    • 2

    Correct Answer
    A. 0
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 0. In most programming languages, arrays are zero-indexed, meaning that the first element of an array has an index of 0. This means that if we have an array with n elements, the indices will range from 0 to n-1.

    • Multi Data Array

    • Multi Size Array

    • Multi Dimensional Array

    • Multi Byte Array

    Correct Answer
    A. Multi Dimensional Array
    Explanation
    An array of arrays is also known as a multi-dimensional array. This type of array allows for the organization of data in multiple dimensions, such as rows and columns. Each element in a multi-dimensional array can be accessed using multiple indices. This type of array is commonly used in programming languages to represent matrices or tables of data.

    How many values can a C Function return at a time.?

    • Only One Value

    • Maximum of two values

    • Maximum of three values

    • Maximum of 8 values

    Correct Answer
    A. Only One Value
    Explanation
    A C function can only return one value at a time. This is because C does not support multiple return values. If a function needs to return multiple values, it can use pointers or structures to achieve that.

    Rate this question:

    What is a multidimensional array in C Language.?

    • It is like a matrix or table with rows and columns

    • It is an array of arrays

    • To access 3rd tow 2nd element use ary[2][1] as the index starts from 0 row or column

    • All of these

    Correct Answer
    A. All of these
    Explanation
    A multidimensional array in C Language is an array of arrays. It is like a matrix or table with rows and columns. To access a specific element in the array, the index starts from 0 for both rows and columns. Therefore, to access the element in the 3rd row and 2nd column, the index would be ary[2][1]. So, the correct answer is "All of these" as all the statements mentioned in the options are true about a multidimensional array in C Language.

    Choose correct C while loop syntax.

    • while(condition) {     //statements }

    • {     //statements }while(condition)

    • while(condition); {     //statements }

    • while() {     if(condition)     {         //statements     } }

    Correct Answer
    A. while(condition) {     //statements }
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "while(condition) { //statements }" because this is the standard syntax for a while loop in C. The loop will continue executing as long as the condition is true, and the statements inside the loop will be executed repeatedly until the condition becomes false.

    What are types of Functions in C Language.?

    • Library Functions

    • User Defined Functions

    • Both Library and User Defined

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Both Library and User Defined
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Both Library and User Defined". In C language, there are two types of functions - library functions and user-defined functions. Library functions are built-in functions provided by the C programming language and are stored in libraries. These functions can be directly used in a program without the need for any additional code. User-defined functions, on the other hand, are created by the programmer to perform specific tasks. These functions are defined and implemented by the programmer and can be reused multiple times in the program.

    • 1

    • 2

    • 3

    • 4

    Correct Answer
    A. 1
    Explanation
    A C program must have at least one function, which is the main function. The main function is the entry point of the program and it is where the execution of the program begins. Without the main function, the program cannot be executed. Therefore, the minimum number of functions required in a C program is 1.

    The given C function is calling itself, which is known as recursion. Recursion is a process in which a function calls itself as a subroutine. Therefore, the correct answer is "Recursive Function".

    Rate this question:

  • 22. 

    What is the output of C program.? int main() {     int a[3] = {10,12,14};     int i=0;     while(i<3)     {         printf("%d ", i[a]);         i++;     } }

    • 14, 12, 10

    • 10, 10, 10

    • 10, 12, 14

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. 10, 12, 14
    Explanation
    The program initializes an integer array 'a' with values 10, 12, and 14. It then enters a while loop that runs as long as the variable 'i' is less than 3. Inside the loop, it prints the value of 'i[a]', which is equivalent to 'a[i]'. Since 'i' starts at 0 and increments by 1 each iteration, the program prints the values of 'a' in order: 10, 12, 14. Therefore, the output of the program is "10, 12, 14".

    Rate this question:

  • 23. 

    What is the function used to allocate memory to an array at run time without initializing array elements.?

    • calloc()

    • malloc()

    • palloc()

    • kalloc()

    Correct Answer
    A. malloc()
    Explanation
    The function used to allocate memory to an array at run time without initializing array elements is malloc(). This function is used in C programming language to dynamically allocate memory for a specified number of bytes. It returns a pointer to the allocated memory, which can then be used to access and manipulate the array elements. Unlike calloc(), malloc() does not initialize the allocated memory to zero.

    • address of 0th element.

    • Compiler error

    Correct Answer
    A. Compiler error
    Explanation
    The given program will result in a compiler error. This is because arrays cannot be assigned to each other directly in C. The line "b=a;" is trying to assign the array "a" to the array "b", which is not allowed.

    Rate this question:

  • 25. 

    What is the output of C program.? int main() {     char grade[] = {'A','B','C'};     printf("GRADE=%d, ", *grade);     printf("GRADE=%d", grade[0]); }

    • A,A

    • 65,A

    • 65,65

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. 65,65
    Explanation
    The program declares a character array called "grade" and initializes it with the values 'A', 'B', and 'C'. The first printf statement prints the value of the first element of the array using the dereference operator (*grade), which is the ASCII value of 'A', which is 65. The second printf statement prints the value of the first element of the array using the index notation (grade[0]), which again is the ASCII value of 'A', which is 65. Therefore, the output of the program is "GRADE=65, GRADE=65".
