     In the following program where is the variable a getting defined and where it is getting declared? #include<stdio.h> int main() { extern int a; printf("%d\n", a); return 0; } int a=20;

    • Extern int a is declaration, int a = 20 is the definition

    • Int a = 20 is declaration, extern int a is the definition

    • Int a = 20 is definition, a is not defined

    • A is declared, a is not defined

    Correct Answer
    A. Extern int a is declaration, int a = 20 is the definition
    Explanation
    In the given program, the line "extern int a;" is a declaration of the variable "a". It tells the compiler that the variable "a" is defined somewhere else in the program. The line "int a = 20;" is the definition of the variable "a", where it is assigned a value of 20. So, the correct answer is "extern int a is declaration, int a = 20 is the definition".

    In C, if you pass an array as an argument to a function, what actually gets passed?

    • Value of elements in array

    • First element of the array

    • Base address of the array

    • Address of the last element of array

    Correct Answer
    A. Base address of the array
    Explanation
    When you pass an array as an argument to a function in C, only the base address of the array gets passed. This means that the function will have access to the memory location where the array starts, allowing it to manipulate or access the elements of the array. The function does not receive the actual values of the elements in the array or the address of the last element.

    How many times the program will print "IndiaBIX" ? #include<stdio.h> int main() { printf("IndiaBIX"); main(); return 0; }

    • Infinite times

    • 32767 times

    • 65535 times

    • Till stack overflows

    • None

    Correct Answer
    A. Infinite times
    Explanation
    The program will print "IndiaBIX" infinite times because the main function is recursively calling itself without any condition to stop the recursion. Therefore, the program will keep printing "IndiaBIX" indefinitely until the stack overflows.

    Is there any difference between following declarations? i.)extern int fun(); ii.) int fun();

    • Both are identical

    • No difference, except extern int fun(); is probably in another file

    • Int fun(); is overrided with extern int fun();

    • None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. No difference, except extern int fun(); is probably in another file
    Explanation
    The answer is "No difference, except extern int fun(); is probably in another file." The reason for this is that both declarations have the same return type and function name, indicating that they are referring to the same function. The only difference is the keyword "extern" in the first declaration, which suggests that the function is defined in another file. This keyword is used to declare that the function is defined elsewhere and is being referenced in the current file.

    THE OUTPUT OF THE FOLOWING  C PROGRAM IS #include void main() { int i=0; while (i<5) { int j=0,k; j++; k=i*j; i++; } printf("i=%d,j=%d,k=%d",i,j,k); }

    • I=4,j=0,k=4

    • I=5,j=0,k=4

    • I=4,j=0,k=5

    • I=5,j=0,k=5

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. None of the above
    Explanation
    The output of the program will be "i=5,j=0,k=20".
    In the given program, a while loop is used to increment the value of i from 0 to 5. Inside the loop, the value of j is always set to 0 and k is calculated as i multiplied by j. Since j is always 0, k will always be 0. After the loop, the printf statement prints the final values of i, j, and k, which are 5, 0, and 0 respectively.

    The average time of a binary search is proportional to : consider the size of search list equal to N

    • LogN

    • N/2

    • N(N-1)/2

    • NlogN

    • None

    Correct Answer
    A. LogN
    Explanation
    The average time of a binary search is proportional to logN. This is because in a binary search, the search list is divided in half at each step until the target element is found. This means that the number of steps required to find the target element is equal to the logarithm of the size of the search list. Therefore, the average time complexity of a binary search is logarithmic in the size of the search list.

     What would be the equivalent pointer expression for referring the array element a [i] [j] [k] [l]

    • ((((a+i)+j)+k)+l)

    • *(*(*(*(a+i)+j)+k)+l)

    • (((a+i)+j)+k+l)

    • ((a+i)+j+k+l)

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. *(*(*(*(a+i)+j)+k)+l)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is `*(*(*(*(a+i)+j)+k)+l)`. This expression is the equivalent pointer expression for referring to the array element `a[i][j][k][l]`. It uses nested pointer dereferences to access the element at the specified indices. The outermost dereference `*(a+i)` accesses the `i`th element of the array `a`, the next dereference `*(*(a+i)+j)` accesses the `j`th element of the sub-array `a[i]`, and so on until the innermost dereference `*(*(*(*(a+i)+j)+k)+l)` accesses the `l`th element of the sub-sub-sub-array `a[i][j][k]`.

    • DEGREE OF THE TREE

    • ORDER OF THE TREE

    • NONE OF THE ABOVE

    Correct Answer
    A. ORDER OF THE TREE
    Explanation
    The maximum number of children a node can have is referred to as the order of the tree. The order of the tree determines the maximum number of branches or children a node can have, which affects the overall structure and organization of the tree.

    • X is a pointer

    • X is an array of three pointer

    • X is an array of three function pointers

    • Error in x declaration

    Correct Answer
    A. X is an array of three function pointers
    Explanation
    In the given program, the declaration "typedef char (*(*arrfptr[3])())[10];" defines an array of three function pointers named "arrfptr". Therefore, the variable "x" is an array of three function pointers.

    • Returns a random number.

    • Returns a random number generator in the specified range.

    • returns a random number generator with a random value based on time.

    • Return a random number with a given seed value.

    Correct Answer
    A. returns a random number generator with a random value based on time.
    Explanation
    The function randomize() in Turbo C under DOS will return a random number generator with a random value based on time. This means that each time the function is called, it will generate a different random number. The random value is based on the current time, ensuring that the generated numbers are unpredictable and not repetitive.
