Question 1 |
# include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int i, j, count;
count = 0;
i = 0;
for (j = -3; j <= 3; j++)
{
if ((j >= 0) && (i++))
count = count + j;
}
count = count + i;
printf(“%d”, count);
return 0;
}
Which one of the following options is correct?
A | The program will compile successfully and output 13 when executed. |
B | The program will compile successfully and output 10 when executed. |
C | The program will compile successfully and output 8 when executed. |
D | The program will not compile successfully. |
Input: count=0 , i=0 and j=-3
For(j = -3; j <= 3; j++) → Condition TRUE then enters into the loop.
if((j >= 0) && (i++)) → Condition fails because they are given logical AND.
So, we are not entering the “if” condition and come out of the loop. The count and “i” values remain “0”.
For(j = -2; j <= 3; j++) → Condition TRUE then enters into the loop.
if((j >= 0) && (i++)) → Condition fails because they are given logical AND.
So, we are not entering the “if” condition and come out of the loop. The count and “i” values remain “0”.
For(j = -1; j <= 3; j++) → Condition TRUE then enters into the loop.
if((j >= 0) && (i++)) → Condition fails because they are given logical AND.
So, we are not entering the “if” condition and come out of the loop. The count and “i” values remain “0”.
For(j = 0; j <= 3; j++) → Condition TRUE then enters into the loop.
if((j >= 0) && (i++)) → Condition TRUE then enters into the loop.
count=0+0 → Count=0
For(j = 1; j <= 3; j++) → Condition TRUE then enters into the loop.
if((j >= 0) && (i++)) → Condition TRUE then enters into the loop.
count=0+1 → Count=1
For(j = 2; j <= 3; j++) → Condition TRUE then enters into the loop.
if((j >= 0) && (i++)) → Condition TRUE then enters into the loop.
count=1+2 → Count=3
For(j = 3; j <= 3; j++) → Condition TRUE then enters into the loop.
if((j >= 0) && (i++)) → Condition TRUE then enters into the loop.
count=3+3 → Count=6
For(j = 4; j <= 3; j++) → Condition FALSE we are not entering the loop.
count=6+4 → We are given a condition as a post increment. So, “i” updates the next instruction.
The above code segment executes successfully and will print value=10.
Question 2 |
int SimpleFunction (int Y[], int n, int x)
{
int total = Y[0], loopIndex;
for (loopIndex = 1; loopIndex <= n - 1; loopIndex++)
total = x * total + Y[loopIndex]
return total;
}
Let Z be an array of 10 elements with Z[i]=1, for all i such that 0 ≤ i ≤ 9. The value returned by SimpleFunction(Z, 10, 2) is _______
A | 1023 |
n=10,x=2
Initial total value is 1 => total=1.
For loop will execute 9 times.
loopindex=1, 1<=9 condition is true then
total = x * total + Y[loopIndex]= 2*1+Y[1]=2+1=3
loopindex=2, 2<=9 condition is true then
total=2*3+Y[2]=6+1=7
loopindex=3, 3<=9 condition is true then
total=2*7+Y[3]=14+1 =15
loopindex=4, 4<=9 condition is true then
total= 2*15+Y[4]=30+1=31
loopindex=5, 5<=9 condition is true then
total=2*31+Y[5]=62+1=63
loopindex=6, 6<=9 condition is true then
total=2*63+Y[6]=126+1=127
loopindex=7, 7<=9 condition is true then
Total =2*127+Y[7]=254+1=255
loopindex=8, 8<=9 condition is true then
total=2*255+Y[8]=510+1=511
loopindex=9, 9<=9 condition is true then
total=2*511+Y[9]=1022+1=1023
loopindex=10, 10<=9 condition is false then
Total value is returned which is 1023.
You can also write generalized formulae 210-1=1023

int i;
for (i=0; b>0; i++) {
if (b%2) arr [i] = 1;
else arr [i] = 0;
b = b/2;

ex = a;
len = tob (b,arr);
for (i=0; i
tot = tot * ex;
ex = ex * ex;
}
return (tot);
}
The value returned by pp(3,4) is ________.
A | 81 |
a=3,b=4
tot=1
ex=a=3
len=tob(b,arr) which is 3
[
tob(4,arr)==>
b=4
b%2 =4%2=0 Condition is false then arr[0]=0
=> b=b/2 =4/2 =2
b=2
b%2 =2%2=0 condition is false then arr[1]=0
=>b=b/2=2/2=1
b=1
then b%2=1%2 condition is true then arr[2]=1
=>b=b/2=1/2=0
The i value is 3 [length is 3]
]
i=0,
arr[0] ==1 condition is false
ex=3*3=9
i=1
arr[1]==1 condition is false
then
ex=9*9=81
i=2
then arr[2]==1 condition is true
tot=tot*ex=1*81=81
ex=81*81
Finally it returns tot value which 81.

Question 18 |
Consider the following C program
int a, b, c = 0; void prtFun (void); int main () { static int a = 1; /* line 1 */ prtFun(); a += 1; prtFun(); printf ( "n %d %d " , a, b) ; } void prtFun (void) { static int a = 2; /* line 2 */ int b = 1; a += ++b; printf (" n %d %d " , a, b); }
What output will be generated by the given code segment?

Question 19 |
Consider the following C program
int a, b, c = 0; void prtFun (void); int main () { static int a = 1; /* line 1 */ prtFun(); a += 1; prtFun(); printf ( "n %d %d " , a, b) ; } void prtFun (void) { static int a = 2; /* line 2 */ int b = 1; a += ++b; printf (" n %d %d " , a, b); }
What output will be generated by the given code segment if:
- Line 1 is replaced by auto int a = 1;
Line 2 is replaced by register int a = 2;
A | |
B | |
C | |
D |
Line 2 replaced by register int a=2;
In main there will be no change if it is static or auto because of a+=1 the auto variable a is updated to 2 from 1.
In prtfun ( ), register makes a difference.
For first print statement a is updated to 4 & prints 4, 2.
But now it is not a static variable to retain the value of a to 4. So it becomes 2, when second function call takes place & prints 4, 2 again. There is no change in b, it acts like a local variable.
Hence,
4 2
4 2
2 0.
Question 20 |

A | No Choice |
B | Choice A |
C | |
D | Program gives no output as it is erroneous |
So,
→ Choice A
→ Choice B. No choice. Is the output.

= fun(98)
= fun(fun(109))
= fun(99)
= fun(110)
= fun(100)
= fun(fun(111))
= fun(101)
= 91
Question 23 |

Y → n is pointer to invalid memory, a making it as a dangling pointer.
Z → p is not initialized.
p = malloc (size of(char))p = malloc (size of(char)); should have been used before assigning 'aa' to ∗p.
Question 33 |
Aliasing in the context of programming languages refers to
A | multiple variables having the same memory location |
B | multiple variables having the same value |
C | multiple variables having the same identifier |
D | multiple uses of the same variable |
Question 34 |
Consider the following C declaration
struct { short s [5] union { float y; long z; } u; } t;
Assume that objects of the type short, float and long occupy 2 bytes, 4 bytes and 8 bytes, respectively. The memory requirement for variable t, ignoring alignment considerations, is
A | 22 bytes |
B | 14 bytes |

(b) If abc(s) is called with a null-terminated string s of length n characters (not
counting the null (‘\0’) character), how many characters will be printed by abc(s)?
A | Theory Explanation is given below. |
Question 36 |
Consider the following program
Program P2 var n: int: procedure W(var x: int) begin x=x+1; print x; end procedure D begin var n: int; n=3; W(n); End begin //beginP2 n=10; D; end
If the language has dynamic scoping and parameters are passed by reference, what will be printed by the program?
A | 10 |
B | 11 |
C | 3 |
D | None of the above |
W(n)=W(3)
Procedure W(var x; int)
begin
x = x+1 = 3+1 = 4
Print x → Print x=4
end
Question 37 |
What is printed by the print statements in the program P1 assuming call by reference parameter passing?
Program P1() { x = 10; y = 3; func1(y,x,x); print x; print y; } func1(x,y,z) { y = y+4; z = x+y+z; }
A | 10, 3 |
B | 31, 3 |
C | 27, 7 |
D | None of the above |
And variable y and z of func1 points to address of variable x.
Therefore, y = y+4 ⇒ y = 10+4 = 14
and z = x+y+z ⇒ z = 14+14+3 = 31
z will be stored back in k.
Hence, x=31 and y will remain as it is (y=3).
Hence, answer is (B).

A | {m|m ≤ n, (∃i)[m=i!]} |
B | {m|m ≤ n, (∃i)[m=i2]} |
C | {m|m ≤ n, m is prime}
|
D | { } |
Now Trace the code,
for (k=3; k<=n; k++)
A[k]=0; // A[3]=0
A[4]=0
for (k=2; k<=Two log_n; k++)
for(j=k+1; j<=n; j++)
A[j] = A[j] // (j%k); // A[3] = 0 // I=1
A[4] = 0 // I=1
for (j=3; j<=n; j++)
if (!A[j]) printf("%d", j);
// if (!1) means if (0), so printf will never execute
Hence, Option (D) is the answer.
Question 40 |
Consider the C program shown below.
#include#define print(x) printf("%d", x) int x; void Q(int z) { z += x; print(z); } void P(int *y) { int x = *y + 2; Q(x); *y = x - 1; print(x); } main(void) { x = 5; P(&x); print(x); }
The output of this program is
A | 12 7 6
|
B | 22 12 11 |
C | 14 6 6 |
D | 7 6 6 |
p(&x) it goes to P( ) function
y=5
x=5+2=7;
Q(x)
z=7
z=7+5=12(Print+z→I)
comes to P( )
*y=7-1=6
x=7(Print x→II)
comes to main ( ),
print x=*y=6 (print x→III)
Output: 12 7 6
Question 41 |
Consider the following class definitions in a hypothetical Object Oriented language that supports inheritance and uses dynamic binding. The language should not be assumed to be either Java or C++, though the syntax is similar.
Class P { void f(int i) { print(i); } } Class Q subclass of P { void f(int i) { print(2*i); } }
Now consider the following program fragment:
Px = new Q(); Qy = new Q(); Pz = new Q(); x.f(1); ((P)y).f(1); z.f(1);
Here ((P)y) denotes a typecast of y to P. The output produced by executing the above program fragment will be
A | 1 2 1 |
B | 2 1 1 |
C | 2 1 2 |
D | 2 2 2 |

A(x) <- B(x, y), C(y) <- B(x,x)
Which of the following first order sentences is equivalent to P?
A | (∀x) [(∃y) [B(x,y) ∧ C(y)] ⇒ A(x)] ∧ ¬(∃x)[B(x,x)] |
B | (∀x) [(∀y) [B(x,y) ∧ C(y)] ⇒ A(x)] ∧ ¬(∃x)[B(x,x)] |
C | (∀x) [(∃y) [B(x,y) ∧ C(y)] ⇒ A(x)] ∨ ¬(∃x)[B(x,x)] |
D | (∀x) [(∀y) [B(x,y) ∧ C(y)] ⇒ A(x)] ∧ (∃x)[B(x,x)] |
Question 43 |
The following program fragment is written in a programming language that allows variables and does not allow nested declarations of functions.
global int i = 100, j = 5; void P(x) { int i = 10; print(x + 10); i = 200; j = 20; print(x); } main() { P(i + j); }
If the programming language uses static scoping and call by need parameter passing mechanism, the values printed by the above program are
A | 115, 220 |
B | 25, 220 |
C | 25, 15 |
D | 115, 105 |
P(100+5) = P(105)
→void P(105)
{
int i=10;
print (x+10); ⇒ 105+10=115 prints
i=200;
j = 20;
print (x); ⇒ x=105 prints
}
115, 105 prints
Question 44 |
The following program fragment is written in a programming language that allows variables and does not allow nested declarations of functions.
global int i = 100, j = 5; void P(x) { int i = 10; print(x + 10); i = 200; j = 20; print(x); } main() { P(i + j); }
If the programming language uses dynamic scoping and call by name parameter passing mechanism, the values printed by the above program are:
A | 115, 220 |
B | 25, 220 |
C | 25, 15 |
D | 115, 105 |
In void P(x)
{ int i = 10;
print(x + 10); ⇒ 105+10 = 115 prints
print (x); ⇒ print x=220;

Question 46 |
Program PARAM (input, output); var m, n : integer; procedure P (var, x, y : integer); var m : integer; begin m : = 1; x : = y + 1 end; procedure Q (x:integer; vary : integer); begin x:=y+1; end; begin m:=0; P(m,m); write (m); n:=0; Q(n*1,n); write (n) end
The value of n, output by the program PARAM is:
A | 0, because n is the actual parameter corresponding to x in procedure Q. |
B | 0, because n is the actual parameter to y in procedure Q. |
C | 1, because n is the actual parameter corresponding to x in procedure Q. |
D | 1, because n is the actual parameter corresponding to y in procedure Q. |
E | none of the above |
Question 47 |
Program PARAM (input, output); var m, n : integer; procedure P (var, x, y : integer); var m : integer; begin m : = 1; x : = y + 1 end; procedure Q (x:integer; vary : integer); begin x:=y+1; end; begin m:=0; P(m,m); write (m); n:=0; Q(n*1,n); write (n) end

B | doubles a and stores in b |
C | doubles b and stores in a |
D | leaves a and b unchanged |
E | none of the above |
Let us consider a=5; b=2
a := a+b = 5+2 = 7
b := a-b = 7-2 = 5
a := a-b = 7-5 = 2
O/P: a=2; b=5
Question 49 |
Program PARAM (input, output); var m, n : integer; procedure P (var, x, y : integer); var m : integer; begin m : = 1; x : = y + 1 end; procedure Q (x:integer; vary : integer); begin x:=y+1; end; begin m:=0; P(m,m); write (m); n:=0; Q(n*1,n); write (n) end
The value of m, output by the program PARAM is:
A | 1, because m is a local variable in P |
B | 0, because m is the actual parameter that corresponds to the formal parameter in p
|
C | 0, because both x and y are just reference to m, and y has the value 0 |
D | 1, because both x and y are just references to m which gets modified in procedure P |
E | none of the above |
Question 50 |
(a) What type of parameter passing mechanism (call-by-value, call-by-reference, call-by-name, or-by-value result) is the following sequence of actions truing to implement for a procedure call P(A[i]) where P(i:integer) is a procedure and A is an integer array?
1. Create a new local variable, say z. 2. Assign to z the value of A[i]. 3. Execute the body of P using z for A[i] 4. Set A[i] to z.
Is the implementation correct? Explain and correct it if necessary. You are supposed to make only small changes.
(b) Show the activation records and the display structure just after the procedures called at lines marked x and y have started their execution. Be sure to indicate which of the two procedures named A you are referring to.
Program Test; Procedure A; Procedure B; Procedure A; …… end a; begin y:A; end B; begin B; end A; begin x:A; end Test.
