Time: 135 Min 60

(Q1) (5 marks)
A. Fill in the blanks ( 4 marks)
- The main difference between structures and arrays is …Structures are heterogeneous data structure
(different data types) while arrays are homogenous data structure (all elements are same data type)
- Structures in C language can be used to defined……. users’ own data types …………,…………..
- Passing by reference is used when we want ……. update or return more than one data item…………
- The algebraic formula a – [ ( b / c ) x d ] can be presents in C language ……a – b / c * d …..…………

B. Consider the following void main( void ) {

incomplete C program. int a=5;
Fill in the blanks char s[]="EC251-Spring2022";
according to the char *p=(s + 6);
descriptions given in the char c=’X’;
comments in the program double f=15;
printf( "_% d_", a ); /* Print the value of a */
printf("_% s_", s ); /* Print the content of s */
printf("_% c_", p ); /* Print the value pointed by p */
printf("_% c_", c ); /* Print the value of c */
printf("_%f_", f ); /* Print the value of f */
} (3 marks)
C. Assume that Q is integer,
write the equivalent of the following conditional operator

Z = Q > 0 && Q < 9 ? 8 : 10 ;

a) Using IF statement (2 mark) b) Using Switch/Case Statement (3 mark)

D. Fill in the two columns, assume that you have the following statements: ( 3 marks)
Equivalent
int X = 2, Y = 5 ; C Expression Algebraic Value
float F= 2.5, G = 3.5; Expression
X+=5 X=X+5 7

Y*=(X–3) Y = Y*(X–3) -5 or 20
F/=3 F=F/3 0.83 or -0.5
X%=(Y–2) X = X%(Y-2) 0 or 2
E. Consider the following function named
void reverse(char A[20])
“reverse” that reverses a given string A,
which received as argument, into B and {
print the reversed version B. int i = ..0.. , j = ..0.., count = …0…;
char …B[20]…;
Fill in the blanks to complete the while ( A[count] != '\0' )
implementation of reverse …count++;
for (j = count. ; j >= 0 ; j - -)
B[ …i++…] = …A...[ j ];
printf("%..s..", B);

float arr[5] = {1.5, 5.2, 4.3}; int m = 1, x[5]={1,5, 3, 4,5};

float *ptr1; x[ 1 ] = m++;
float *ptr2 = &arr[2]; x[ 3 ] = m+ 5;
*ptr1 = *ptr2 + 3; x[ x[1] ] = x[ 1 ] * 2;
printf("%f %f ",*ptr2,*ptr1+arr[0]); x[ 6 - x[1] ] = 9;

Q3) ( 14 marks)

A) Write a C function that accepts a 1-dimensional floating-point array and its size as arguments and
prints the smallest values in that array. (5 marks)

B) Write a C program that has two functions: main function and the other function (called “Average” )
accepts a 2-dimensional floating-point array of size 2 x 3 as argument and returns the average of the
values in that array. The main function should declare a 2D array with the values {8,3,5,2,4,5}, and
then gets the average by calling the Average function and finally prints the average. (9 marks)
