M3-R4: DOEACC O LEVEL PROGRAMMING AND PROBLEM SOLVING THROUGH ‘C’ LANGUAGE.ANSWER, JULY, 2010


"O" level course of DOEACC Scheme is equivalent to a Foundation Level Course in Computer Applications. Students can acquire this qualification by undergoing this course and passing the examination conducted by the NIELIT.

1. Each question below gives a multiple choice of answers(1x10)

 1.1 By default a real number is treated as a
A) float
B) double
C) long double
D) integer

1.2 Which of the following expression is equivalent to ++*ptr?
A) (*ptr)++
B) ++*(ptr)
C) (ptr)*++
D) (ptr)++*

1.3 The default storage class of a ‘C’ variable is
A) auto
B) static
C) extern
D) register

1.4 Which header file should be included to use functions like malloc() and calloc()?
A) memory.h
B) stdlib.h
C) string.h
D) dos.h

1.5 We can combine the following two statements into one using
char *p;
p = (char*) malloc(100);
A) char p = *malloc(100);
B) char *p = (char) malloc(100);
C) char *p = (char*)malloc(100);
D) char *p = (char *)(malloc*)(100);

1.6 How many times "DOEACC" will get printed?
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int x;
for(x=-1; x<=10; x++)
{
if(x < 5)
continue;
else
break;
printf("DOEACC");
}
return 0;
}
A) Infinite times
B) 11 times
C) 0 times
D) 10 times

1.7 Which of the following statement is correct about the following program?
#include<stdio.h>
long fun(int num)
{
int i;
long f=1;
for(i=1; i<=num; i++)
f = f * i;
return f;
}
A) The function calculates the value of 1 raised to power num
B) The function calculates the square root of an integer
C) The function calculates the factorial value of an integer
D) None of the above

1.8 In C, if you pass an array as an argument to a function, what actually gets passed?
A) Value of elements in array
B) First element of the array
C) Base address of the array
D) Address of the last element of array

1.9 If a file is open in ‘write’ mode, then
A) If it does not exist, an error is returned
B) If it does not exist, it is created
C) If it exists, then data is written at the end
D) If it exists, error is returned

1.10 Which of the following functions is used to free the allocated memory?
A) remove(var-name);
B) free(var-name);
C) delete(var-name);
D) dalloc(var-name);

2. Each statement below is either TRUE or FALSE. Choose the most appropriate one and
ENTER in the “tear-off” sheet attached to the question paper, following instructions
therein. (1x10)

2.1 Size of short integer and long integer can be verified using the sizeof() operator.TRUE
2.2 The expression a[0] and *a[0] are same for int a[100]. TRUE
2.3 A structure can contain similar or dissimilar elements. TRUE
2.4 Right shift of an unsigned integer by one bit is equivalent to multiplying it by two.FALSE
2.5 Functions can be called either by value or by reference. TRUE
2.6 Bounds of the array index are checked during execution.FALSE
2.7 Every time we supply new set of values to the program at command prompt, we need to
recompile the program.FALSE
2.8 If the two strings are found to be unequal then strcmp returns difference between the first nonmatching TRUE
pair of characters.
2.9 Singly-linked lists contain nodes which have a data field as well as a next field, which points to
the next node in the linked list. TRUE
2.10 In computer programming, the translation of source code into object code is done by a compiler. TRUE

3. Match words and phrases in column X with the closest related meaning/
word(s)/phrase(s) in column Y. Enter your selection in the “tear-off” answer sheet
attached to the question paper, following instructions therein. (1x10)
A. menu selection
B. array
C. declaration
D. break
E. *
F. integer value
G. strcat()
H. dynamic data structure
I. strcmp()
J. where a function call itself
K. ftell()

 
                                                                                                           
3.1 group of related data of same type that share a
common name. B
3.2 operator used to get value at address stored in a
Pointer. E
3.3 linked list is a . H
3.4 switch statement is often used for. A
3.5 extern int i; is a C
3.6 gives the current position of the pointer K
3.7 statement ends the loop D
3.8 recursion is a process J
3.9 by default, functions return F
3.10 to concatenate two strings we use G

4. Each statement below has a blank space to fit one of the word(s) or phrase(s) in the list
below. Enter your choice in the “tear-off” answer sheet attached to the question paper,
following instructions therein. (1x10)
A. void B. calling function C. stdio.h
D. goto E. 4/8 F. flowchart
G. 8/16 H. exit I. return
J. logical operators K. garbage L. ->
