Programming Output Evaluation

1,721 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.

Programming Output Evaluation Questions

Multiple choice

What is the output of the given program snippet in C Language? main() {
int a=0.5,c=0.5;
float b=2,d=4;
if(b=d&&a++<=c) printf(This is true);
else
printf(This is false); }

  1. Compilation error: Incompatible types

  2. This is false

  3. This is true

  4. Runtime exception

  5. None of these

C Correct answer
Explanation

b=d is not a comparison but d’s value is assigned to b, and returns true and a++<=c will result true too. “This is true” will be printed.

Multiple choice

What will be the output of the following code snippet in C language? main() {
int j=0,i;
clrscr();
for(printf(nValue is not initialized here.); j++;) {
if(j>10) break;
else {
i=j*2; printf(%d,i);
}
}
getch(); }

  1. Infinite loop

  2. Syntax error

  3. Value is not initialized here

C Correct answer
Explanation

Test expression not specified at right place, still the for loop wont execute even once But j++ would yield 0 as j’s read value will be 0, after which it is incremented.

Multiple choice

Consider the following code. What will be the values of a, x, y and z? main() {
int x=10,y=20,z=30,a=0; clrscr();
a=(x+=y)||(y+=z);
getch(); }

  1. a=0, x=10, y=20, z=30

  2. a=1, x=30, y=50, z=30

  3. a=0, x=30, y=50, z=30

  4. a=1, x=30, y=20, z=30

  5. a=1, x=10, y=50, z=30

D Correct answer
Explanation

X+=y gives 30, which is a non zero value and logical or operator returns 1, when there is atleast one non zero value. Thus retrieving a non zero value already terminates before calculating y+=z.

Multiple choice

What will be the output of the following code snippet? main() {
clrscr();
char ch[]=Hello;
switch(ch) { case world: printf(World);
break;
case Hello: printf(Hello); break; default: printf(default.);
}
getch(); }

  1. Compilation error: switch selection expression must be of integral type

  2. Hello

  3. Compilation error: constant expression required

  4. Compilation error: duplicate case

  5. Options 1,3 and 4

E Correct answer
Explanation

All the three errors occurred.
