TCS NQT Programming Questions and Answers
1. Is there any difference between the following declarations?
1 : extern int fun();
2 : int fun();
a. Both are identical
b. No difference, except extern int fun(); is probably in another file
c. int fun(); is overrided with extern int fun();
d. None of these
Show answer
b. No difference, except extern int fun(); is probably in another file
Explanation
extern int fun(); declaration in C is to indicate the existence of a global function and it is defined externally to the current module or in another file.
int fun(); declaration in C is to indicate the existence of a function inside the current module or in the same file.
2. Which of the fplowing statements should be used to obtain a remainder after dividing 3.14 by 2.1?
a. rem = 3.14 % 2.1;
b. rem = modf(3.14, 2.1);
c. rem = fmod(3.14, 2.1);
d. Remainder cannot be obtain in floating point division
Show answer
c. rem = fmod(3.14, 2.1);
Explanation
fmod(x,y) – Calculates x modulo y, the remainder of x/y. This function is the same as the modulus operator. But fmod() performs floating point divisions.
3. In C, if you pass an array as an argument to a function, what actually gets passed?
a. Value of elements in array
b. Base address of the array
c. Address of the last element of array
d. First element of the array
Show answer
b. Base address of the array
Explanation
The statement ‘b’ is correct. When we pass an array as a function argument, the base address of the array will be passed.
