- Question
What will be the output of the program (in Turbo C)?
#include<stdio.h> int fun(int *f) { *f = 10; return 0; } int main() { const int arr[5] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; printf("Before modification arr[3] = %d", arr[3]); fun(&arr[3]); printf("\nAfter modification arr[3] = %d", arr[3]); return 0; }
Options- A. Before modification arr[3] = 4
After modification arr[3] = 10 - B. Error: cannot convert parameter 1 from const int * to int *
- C. Error: Invalid parameter
- D. Before modification arr[3] = 4
After modification arr[3] = 4 - Correct Answer
- Before modification arr[3] = 4
After modification arr[3] = 10
ExplanationStep 1: const int arr[5] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; The constant variable arr is declared as an integer array and initialized toarr[0] = 1, arr[1] = 2, arr[2] = 3, arr[3] = 4, arr[4] = 5
Step 2: printf("Before modification arr[3] = %d", arr[3]); It prints the value of arr[3] (ie. 4).
Step 3: fun(&arr[3]); The memory location of the arr[3] is passed to fun() and arr[3] value is modified to 10.
A const variable can be indirectly modified by a pointer.
Step 4: printf("After modification arr[3] = %d", arr[3]); It prints the value of arr[3] (ie. 10).
Hence the output of the program is
Before modification arr[3] = 4
After modification arr[3] = 10

- 5. The preprocessor can trap simple errors like missing declarations, nested comments or mismatch of braces.
Options- A. True
- B. False Discuss
Correct Answer: False
Explanation:
False, the preprocessor cannot trap the errors, it only replaces the macro with the given expression. But the compiler will detect errors.- 6. It is necessary that a header files should have a .h extension?
