Correct Answer: Error: unknown max in declaration/Constant expression required
Explanation:
Step 2: const int max=128; The constant variable max is declared as an integer data type and it is initialized with value 128.
Step 3: char array[max]; This statement reports an error "constant expression required". Because, we cannot use variable to define the size of array.
To avoid this error, we have to declare the size of an array as static. Eg. char array[10]; or use macro char array[MAX];
Note: The above program will print A A as output in Unix platform.
Correct Answer: No error and No output
Correct Answer: Error: cannot modify const object
Correct Answer: Yes
Correct Answer: No
Correct Answer: Error: cannot convert ptr const value
Explanation:
Step 2: char yourbuf[] = "CURIOUSTAB"; The variable yourbuf is declared as an array of characters and initialized with string "CURIOUSTAB".
Step 3: char const *ptr = mybuf; Here, ptr is a constant pointer, which points at a char.
The value at which ptr it points is a constant; it will be an error to modify the pointed character; There will not be any error to modify the pointer itself.
Step 4: *ptr = 'a'; Here, we are changing the value of ptr, this will result in the error "cannot modify a const object".
Correct Answer: Error: const variable have been initialised when declared.
Explanation:
Hence Option B is correct
Correct Answer: No error
Explanation:
Correct Answer: Error: cannot convert ptr const value
Explanation:
Step 2: char yourbuf[] = "CURIOUSTAB"; The variable yourbuf is declared as an array of characters and initialized with string "CURIOUSTAB".
Step 3: char *const ptr = mybuf; Here, ptr is a constant pointer, which points at a char.
The value at which ptr it points is not a constant; it will not be an error to modify the pointed character; There will be an error only to modify the pointer itself.
Step 4: *ptr = 'a'; The value of ptr is assigned to 'a'.
Step 5: ptr = yourbuf; Here, we are changing the pointer itself, this will result in the error "cannot modify a const object".
Correct Answer: Error: Invalid declaration of fun(...)
