Programming Output Evaluation

1,953 Questions

Programming output evaluation tests the ability to trace code execution in languages like C, Java, and SAS. It focuses on arrays, loops, pointers, and data type conversions. These technical questions are standard in computer knowledge sections for IT officer and bank exams.

public class Question { public static void main(String args[]) { int x=y=10; y=12; System.out.print(x+"&"+y); } }

  1. 10 & 12

  2. 10 & 10

  3. Compile Time Error

  4. None
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The statement int x=y=10; attempts to use variable y before declaration. In Java, all variables must be declared before use, making this a compilation error. The chained assignment syntax requires all variables to be pre-declared or declared together.

What is the output of the following code snippet @echo off set var = 1 %var%+=1 echo var

  1. 2

  2. 3

  3. 1

  4. Syntax Error
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

The batch script contains a syntax error on the line '%var%+=1'. This is not valid batch syntax - arithmetic operations require 'set /a var=%var%+1'. Additionally, 'set var = 1' creates a variable with a space in the name, and 'echo var' prints the literal string 'var' rather than the variable's value.

What is the output of the following code snippet?

@echo off 
set /a number = 5 
:loop 
set /a number = %number% +1 
If %number% == 10
 (goto :label) 
else 
  (echo %number% >> c:\test.txt) 
goto :loop

  1. Prints numbers from 6 to 9 into c:\test.txt

  2. Prints numbers from 5 to 10 into c:\test.txt

  3. Prints only 10 to c:\test.txt

  4. Infinite loop
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The loop initializes number=5, then increments it before each check. When number becomes 6 through 9, it echoes these values to the file. When number reaches 10, the condition is true and execution jumps to :label, exiting the loop. Thus only numbers 6, 7, 8, and 9 are written to c:\test.txt.

System.out.println("i="+++i); Must be as a System.out.println("i="+ ++i); “Space between operators” 2. int x=010; In this statement, compile will take it as a OCTAL NUMBER. So OCTAL(10)=DECIMAL(8) 3. int x=y=10; In this statement, We are using y without declaring it. So will cause Compile Time Error. 4. 3 ? 1 1 2 ? 1 0 ------------------ (OR) 3 ? 1 1 5. int x=0x10; In the above statement, Compile will take it as a HEXA DECIMAL. So. HEXA(10) ? DECIMAL(16)

Predict the output of the following program code main() { fork(); printf("Hello World!"); }

  1. Hello World!Hello World!

  2. Hello World!

  3. World!Hello

  4. error
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

fork() creates a child process that duplicates the parent. Both processes continue execution from after the fork() call, so each executes the printf statement. The output appears twice: "Hello World!Hello World!". The order may vary but both processes print.

What is the output of following. 

public static void main(String[]  args)  {
    int b=3;
    byte c=b/2;
    System.out.println("&c="+ &c);
}

  1. 1.5

  2. 1

  3. RuntimeException

  4. CompileTime Error
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

In Java, dividing two integers yields an integer (int). Assigning it to a byte without casting causes a compile-time error. Additionally, using & as a unary address operator is invalid syntax in Java and fails compilation.

What is the output of following. 

public static void main(String[]  args) {
    final int b=3;
    byte c=b/2;
    System.out.println("c="+c);
}

  1. Runtime Exception

  2. 1.5

  3. 1

  4. CompileTimeError
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Integer division in Java truncates toward zero, so 3/2 equals 1 (not 1.5). The result is assigned to byte c. This compiles without error because the compiler knows 1 is within byte range (-128 to 127). The output is "c=1".

What is the output of following. 

public static void main(String[]  args) {
    String s1="prasad";
    String s2="Ram";
    s1.concat(s2);
    System.out.println("c="+s1);
}

  1. Ram

  2. prasad

  3. RamPrasad

  4. PrasadRam
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The concat() method returns a new String object without modifying the original. Since s1.concat(s2) is not assigned to any variable, s1 remains "prasad". This demonstrates String immutability - operations that appear to modify Strings actually create new ones.

What is the output of following.

public static void main(String[]  args) {
    String s1="sanjay";
    String s2="sanjay";             
    System.out.println("c="+s1==s2);
}

  1. prasad

  2. true

  3. false

  4. compileTime Error
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The expression "c="+s1==s2 is evaluated as ("c="+s1)s2 due to operator precedence - string concatenation (+) happens before the equality check (). The concatenation creates a new String object "c=sanjay", which is then compared by reference to s2. Since s2 is a different String object (even though it contains "sanjay"), the == operator returns false. To compare string content, use .equals() instead.
