C & C++- question & ans

Q 1) What does this code do?
 #include<stdio.h>
 void func(char s[],int c)
 {
     int i,j;
     for(i=j=0;s[i]!='\0';i++)
         if(s[i]!=c)
             s[j++]= s[i] + s[i]==c ;
     s[j]='\0';
 }
 int main()
 {
     char s[]=“Hello world";
     func(s,'k');
     printf("%s",s);
     return(0);
 }
Output:  empty string or nothing
Explanation: The subroutine takes a string and a character, if the sum of 2 present character ASCII value is equal to the ASCII value of the character C then a 1 is added to the string s (s[i]+s[i]==c) and since the sum will never be equal to the ACSII value of C the string will remain empty
 
Q2)    Predict the output of the following piece of code. Assume that bit position 0 is at the right end and that i and j are sensible positive values.
 #include<stdio.h>
 unsigned getbits(unsigned a,int i,int j)
 {
     return(a>>(i+1-j)) & (~0<<j);
 }
 int main()
 {
     unsigned num=128;
     printf("%d\n",getbits(num,4,1));
     return(0);
 }
Output: 16
Explanation:

a>>(i+1-j) equals 8 ie binary value 00001000. (~1<<j) equals 15 i.e. binary value 00001111.Binary & of these two values gives us 00001000 which is equal to 16
 
Q 3)  Will this code work properly? If yes why? If not why not?
 #include<stdio.h>
 void swap(int *a,int *b)
 {
     *a=*a+*b;
     *b=*a-*b;
     *a=*a-*b;
 }
 int main()
 {
     int a=3617283450;
     int b=3617283449;
     swap(&a,&b);
     printf("%d %d\n",a,b);
     return(0);
 }
Explanation : For some systems it will return a value but it is garbage value. For some systems it won't work because of overflow in the statement *a=*a+*b;

Q 4) What will be the output of the following code
void swap(int,int);
void main()
{ int a=10,b=15;
clrscr();
printf("Befor swap a=%d ,b=%d",a,b);
swap(a,b);
printf("\nAfter swap a=%d ,b=%d",a,b);
getch(); }
void swap(int a, int b)
{ int c;
c=a;
a=b;
b=c; }

Output: Before swap a=10,b=15 After swap a=10,b=15
Explanation: a and b are auto variable (default storage class is auto) . Here its scope is only within main function. After the main function both a and b will die. We are swapping outside the main function so value of a and b is not changing.

Q 5) What will be the output of the following code
char* myFunc (char *ptr)
{
ptr += 3;
return (ptr);
}
int main()
{
char *x, *y;
x = "HELLO";
y = myFunc (x);
printf ("y = %s \n", y);
return 0;
}
Output: LO
Explanation :The subroutine will increment the pointer to the current position of string by 3 and return the new position to calling program So when the printf statement is executed it prints characters after third position.

Q 6) What will be the output of following Code:
void myFunc (int x)
{
if (x > 0)
myFunc(--x);
printf("%d, ", x);
}
int main()
{
myFunc(5);
return 0;
}
Output: 0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4,
Explanation : myFunc is calling itself recursively the call stack will be like this
myFunc(0)
myFunc(0)
myFunc(1)
myFunc(2)
myFunc(3)
myFunc(4)

Q 7) what will be the output of the following Code:
#include <stdio.h>
int i;
void increment( int i )
{
i++;
}
int main()
{
for( i = 0; i < 10; increment( i ) )
{
}
printf("i=%d\n", i);
return 0;
}
Output: It will loop indefinitely.
Explanation : Because the increment function is returning void and it will not increment the “i” needed in the for loop of main function as the for loop will expect “i” to be incremented in the loop itself
 
Q 8) What is the output of the following Code:
#include <stdio.h>
void func()
{
int x = 0;
static int y = 0;
x++; y++;
printf( "%d -- %d\n", x, y );
}
int main()
{
func();
func();
return 0;
}
Output :1 -- 1 1 -- 2
Explanation : the variable y is static for the subroutine thus it will maintain its value even after the control exits from the present call.

Q 9) What will be the output of following code
#include <stdio.h>
void inc_count(int *count_ptr)
{
(*count_ptr)++;
}
int main()
{ int count = 0;
while (count < 10)
inc_count(&count);
Printf(“%d “, Count); 
return (0);
}
Output:10
Explanation :The address of the count variable is passed to the inc_count function which increments and return the incremented value. This is also called pass by reference.

Q 10) What will be the output of the following code
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
void func(int);
main()
{
void (*fp)(int);
fp = func;
(*fp)(1);
fp(2);
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}

void func(int arg)
{ printf("%d\n", arg);
}
 
Output: 1 2
Explanation: the first call (*fp)(1); will call the function through its pointer and return the value passed as argument and the second call fp(2); will invoke the function normally and print the parameter value to the screen

Instructions: Read the following paragraph carefully answer the question based on the same.
Corruption in India is has been a problem ever since the country had been having a multilayered administration by officers, ministers and other administrative chiefs. The corruption problem in ancient India, coupled with bribery, kept infesting the society more and more in an increasing rate. This is quite clear from the way the contemporary writers like Ksemendra and Kalhana have condemned the government officials, as well as other employees of different levels, in their celebrated works. Ksemendra in his Dasavataracaritam has advised the king to remove all the officials, ministers, generals and priests from office with immediate effect, who were either taking bribes themselves or have been indulging in corruption in some other way. Yet another work by Ksemendra, called Narmamala, depicts corruption bribery spreading fast like rampant maladies. He also found an answer to the much discussed question how to stop corruption in India of his time; he has explicitly addressed the contemporary intelligentsia to step forward and shoulder the responsibility of purging their folks.
Kalhana too was merciless in his condemnation of the corrupt government officers in India of his own time. He damned the officials outright and asked the king to stay alert from their evil entente. Kalhana has also cited some examples of top incidents of corruption in India of his days. He said that Bijja became even richer than the kind as he sought to unfair means of getting money, while Ananda managed to achieve a high post in the office by bribing his higher officials. 
Embezzlements in India was just the same problem in the yesteryears as they are now, mostly among the police and administrative officers. In fact, Kautilya has given a detailed list, referring to not less than forty ways of embezzlement that the treasury officers in his time were used to practice. The most common of them were pratibandha or obstruction, prayoga or loan, vyavahara or trading, avastara or fabrication of accounts, pariahapana or causing less revenue and thereby affecting the treasury, upabhoga or embezzling funds for self enjoyment, and apahara or defalcation. And he uses a nice metaphor too – just like one cannot resist tasting the drop of honey or poison on the tip of the tongue, a government servant can never resist devouring even a bit of the government revenue. Again, we cannot confirm if a fish under water is drinking water or not; similarly, ascertaining the bribery, corruption and embezzlement on the part of government officials and policemen were equally impossible. 
And no wonder, this huge amount of embezzlement in different spheres of the administration and in varied degrees led to the piling up of a huge amount of black money in Indian market in the age of the Arthasastra; nevertheless, we would not enquire into that in detail and make this article unnecessarily long. In brief, that caused all the similar problems we find today, including sudden and unpredictable hikes in the prices of essential goods. It would have been quite interesting to address the issue under the present economic circumstances of the present day India, but the scope of this article would ask to better leave that out.

I. Corruption is like a rampant disease which spreads like an epidemic. 
II. The main cause of corruption was bribes asked by administrative officers in ancient India.

And no wonder, this huge amount of embezzlement in different spheres of the administration and in varied degrees led to the piling up of a huge amount of black money in Indian market in the age of the Arthasastra; nevertheless, we would not enquire into that in detail and make this article unnecessarily long. In brief, that caused all the similar problems we find today, including sudden and unpredictable hikes in the prices of essential goods. It would have been quite interesting to address the issue under the present economic circumstances of the present day India, but the scope of this article would ask to better leave that out.

Q.24)    
Instructions: Read the following paragraph carefully answer the question based on the same.
Corruption in India is has been a problem ever since the country had been having a multilayered administration by officers, ministers and other administrative chiefs. The corruption problem in ancient India, coupled with bribery, kept infesting the society more and more in an increasing rate. This is quite clear from the way the contemporary writers like Ksemendra and Kalhana have condemned the government officials, as well as other employees of different levels, in their celebrated works. Ksemendra in his Dasavataracaritam has advised the king to remove all the officials, ministers, generals and priests from office with immediate effect, who were either taking bribes themselves or have been indulging in corruption in some other way. Yet another work by Ksemendra, called Narmamala, depicts corruption bribery spreading fast like rampant maladies. He also found an answer to the much discussed question how to stop corruption in India of his time; he has explicitly addressed the contemporary intelligentsia to step forward and shoulder the responsibility of purging their folks.
Kalhana too was merciless in his condemnation of the corrupt government officers in India of his own time. He damned the officials outright and asked the king to stay alert from their evil entente. Kalhana has also cited some examples of top incidents of corruption in India of his days. He said that Bijja became even richer than the kind as he sought to unfair means of getting money, while Ananda managed to achieve a high post in the office by bribing his higher officials. 
Embezzlements in India was just the same problem in the yesteryears as they are now, mostly among the police and administrative officers. In fact, Kautilya has given a detailed list, referring to not less than forty ways of embezzlement that the treasury officers in his time were used to practice. The most common of them were pratibandha or obstruction, prayoga or loan, vyavahara or trading, avastara or fabrication of accounts, pariahapana or causing less revenue and thereby affecting the treasury, upabhoga or embezzling funds for self enjoyment, and apahara or defalcation. And he uses a nice metaphor too – just like one cannot resist tasting the drop of honey or poison on the tip of the tongue, a government servant can never resist devouring even a bit of the government revenue. Again, we cannot confirm if a fish under water is drinking water or not; similarly, ascertaining the bribery, corruption and embezzlement on the part of government officials and policemen were equally impossible.
