  • What will be the output of the program?
    #include<stdio.h>
    #define FUN(arg) do\
                     {\
                        if(arg)\

    int main()
    {
        int i=2;
        FUN(i<3);
        return 0;
    }
    


  • Options
  • A. CuriousTab...
    CuriousTab...
    CuriousTab
  • B. CuriousTab... CuriousTab...
  • C. Error: cannot use control instructions in macro
  • D. No output

  • Correct Answer
  • CuriousTab... CuriousTab... 

    Explanation
    The macro FUN(arg) prints the statement "CuriousTab..." untill the while condition is satisfied.

    Step 1: int i=2; The variable i is declared as an integer type and initialized to 2.

    Step 2: FUN(i<3); becomes,

    do
    {
        if(2 < 3)
        printf("CuriousTab...", "\n");
    }while(--2)
    

    After the 2 while loops the value of i becomes '0'(zero). Hence the while loop breaks.

    Hence the output of the program is "CuriousTab... CuriousTab..."
