  • Question
  • What will be the output of the program?
    #include<stdio.h>
    int main()
    {
        unsigned int i = 65536; /* Assume 2 byte integer*/
        while(i != 0)
            printf("%d",++i);
        printf("\n");
        return 0;
    }
    


  • Options
  • A. Infinite loop
  • B. 0 1 2 ... 65535
  • C. 0 1 2 ... 32767 - 32766 -32765 -1 0
  • D. No output

  • Correct Answer
  • No output 

    Explanation
    Here unsigned int size is 2 bytes. It varies from 0,1,2,3, ... to 65535.

    Step 1:unsigned int i = 65536; here variable i becomes '0'(zero). because unsigned int varies from 0 to 65535.

    Step 2: while(i != 0) this statement becomes while(0 != 0). Hence the while(FALSE) condition is not satisfied. So, the inside the statements of while loop will not get executed.

    Hence there is no output.

    Note: Don't forget that the size of int should be 2 bytes. If you run the above program in GCC it may run infinite loop, because in Linux platform the size of the integer is 4 bytes.
