What will be the output of the program?
#include<stdio.h> #define MIN(x, y) (x<y)? x : y; int main() { int x=3, y=4, z; z = MIN(x+y/2, y-1); if(z > 0) printf("%d\n", z); return 0; }
Options- A. 3
- B. 4
- C. 0
- D. No output
- Correct Answer
- 3
ExplanationThe macro MIN(x, y) (x<y)? x : y; returns the smallest value from the given two numbers.Step 1: int x=3, y=4, z; The variable x, y, z are declared as an integer type and the variable x, y are initialized to value 3, 4 respectively.
Step 2: z = MIN(x+y/2, y-1); becomes,
=> z = (x+y/2 < y-1)? x+y/2 : y - 1;
=> z = (3+4/2 < 4-1)? 3+4/2 : 4 - 1;
=> z = (3+2 < 4-1)? 3+2 : 4 - 1;
=> z = (5 < 3)? 5 : 3;
The macro return the number 3 and it is stored in the variable z.
Step 3: if(z > 0) becomes if(3 > 0) here the if condition is satisfied. It executes the if block statements.
Step 4: printf("%d\n", z);. It prints the value of variable z.
Hence the output of the program is 3

- 2. Is it true that too many recursive calls may result into stack overflow?
Options- A. Yes
- B. No Discuss
Correct Answer: Yes
Explanation:
Yes, too many recursive calls may result into stack overflow. because when a function is called its return address is stored in stack.After sometime the stack memory will be filled completely. Hence stack overflow error will occur.
