Question 46
Consider the following two pieces of codes and choose the best answer CODE 1: switch (x) { case 1: printf(x is 1); break; case 2: printf(x is 2); break; default: printf(value of x unknown) ;} CODE 2 If (x==1) printf(x is 1); else if (x==2){printf( x is 2);} else printf(value of x unknown); A. Both of the above code fragments have the same behaviour B. Both of the above code fragments produce different effects C. The first code produces more results than second D. The second code produces more results than first.

Question 47
Observe the following block of code and determine what happens when x=2? switch (x){case 1:case 2:case 3: printf( "x is 3, so jumping to third branch"); goto thirdBranch; default: cout<<"x is not within the range, so need to say Thank You!";} A. Program jumps to the end of switch statement since there is nothing to do for x=2 B. The code inside default will run since there is no task for x=2, so, default task is run C.

Question 52
Guess out put of following code int n = 2; switch (n) { case 1: { n = n + 1; break; } case 2: { n = n + 1; } case 3: { n = n + n; } default: { n = n - 1; } } cout<< "The value of n is << n;

The value of n is 5, because logic takes case 2 route then falls through case 3 and default.

Question 57
The Smallest element in C language is called A . Integer B. header file C. class D . Token

Question 58
Which of the followings is not a reserved word (or key word? A . Main (main is reserver word but not Main) B. if C. int D . none of these

Question 59
Which of the followings are true if( number) when num= A. 1 B. -1 C. 10 D. 0 E. (First 3 are correct A, B, C) In c language only 0 means false other values means true

Question 60
Which statement will be printed on screen Num1=3,Num2=5 If(Num1=Num2) Printf (Both numbers are equal); else Print (The numbers are different); A. Both numbers are equal B. The numbers are different Note Because Num2 is 0 so this value is assigned to Num1 0 means fale in c language so when we chech if(Num1=Num2) it means if(0) or if(0) which is if (false) ,we know that whenever if condition is false, the control moves to else condition and output will be that of else statement
