• The preprocessor will try to locate fileA in the same directory as the source file, and the fileB in a predetermined directory path.
• The preprocessor will try to locate fileA in the fixed system directory. It will try to locate fileB in the directory path designated by the -I option added to the command line while compiling the source code.
• The file using the fileA syntax must be system files, of unlimited number; fileB must be a user file at a maximum of one per source file.
• The preprocessor will try to locate fileA in a predetermined directory path. It will try to locate fileB in the same directory as the source file along with a custom directory path.

解释: char c[ ] = “GATE2011”; since char *p =c it means p represents the base address of string “GATE2011” SO p[3] is ‘E’ and p[1] is ‘A’. Value of Sub expression p[3] – p[1] = ASCII value of ‘E’ – ASCII value of ‘A’ = 4. So the expression p + p[3] – p[1] becomes ( p + 4) 和 (p+4) represent to base address of string “2011” printf(“%s”, p + p[3] – p[1]) ; So it will print 2011

Q80. What is the output of the following code snippet?

int main() {
	int a = 5, b = 6, c;
	c = a++ + ++b;
	printf("%d %d %d", a, b, c);
	return 0;
}

Q81. What will be the output of the following C program segment?

char inchar = 'A';
switch (inchar)
{
case 'A' :
	printf ("choice A \n") ;
case 'B' :
	printf ("choice B ") ;
case 'C' :
case 'D' :
case 'E' :
default:
	printf ("No Choice") ;
}

• No choice
• Choice A
• Choice A Choice B No choice
• Program gives no output as it is erroneous

Q82. String variable str1 has the value of “abc”, and string variable str2 has the value “xyz”. What are the values of str1 and str2 after this statement is executed?

strcpy(str1, str2);

• str1: “xyz” ; str2: “xyz”
• str1: “abc” ; str2: “xyz”
• str1: “xyz” ; str2: “abc”
• str1: “abc” ; str2: “abc”

Q83. Which is not one of the basic data types in C?

• array
• 漂浮
• long double
• unsigned char

Q84. You have written a function that you want to include as a member of structure a. How is such as structure member defined?

• :

struct a {
    void *f1;
};

• :

struct a {
    void (*f1)();
};

• :

struct a {
    *(void *f1)();
};

• :

struct a {
    void *f1();
};

Q85. You need to determine if a string variable is a substring of another string. Which standard C library function do you use?

• substr(str1, str2);
• strstr(str1, str2);
• substring(str1, str2);
• strspn(str1, str2);

Q86. How are static functions different from global functions?

• Static functions must be declared in advance of being defined.
• Static functions must be declared in a separate header file.
• Static functions always return the same value.
• Static functions can be accessed only in the file where they are declared.

Q87. What does this program display?

main(){
    char *p = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";
    int i;
    for (i=0;i<5;i++) *p++; *p++;
    printf("%c",*p++);
}

Q88. What is not a valid command with this declaration?

char *string[20] = { "one", "two", "three"};

• printf("%c", string[1][2]);
• printf("%s", string[1][2]);
• printf("%s", string[1]);
• printf(string[1]);
