Answer: M
9. Find output/error.
void main() { int k=5; const int t=5; printf("%d %d ",(k)++, t++); } [2]
Answer: Compilation Error; increment of read-only variable ‘t’
10. Consider the function given below (Figure 1). The function Binary() is called in main() as follows.

Section C: 15 Marks
1. Represent 6.75 using IEEE 754 single precision format. Show all the 32 binary bits. [3]
Answer: A = 0 10000001 1011000000000000000000
One has to show the steps!
(6.75)10 = (110.11)2 × 20 = 1.1011 × 22 ; Exponent= 2+127=129=(10000001)2
2. An array of integers is declared as int A[3][4];. What will be the output of the following C statement
if base address of the array A is assumed to be 1000. printf("%ld",(long int)&A[2][2]); [2]
Answer: 1040 (1020, If sizeof(int) provides 2 bytes.)
3. Write a recursive function to convert a decimal integer into corresponding binary number. [5]
Answer: Figure 3
Figure 2: Answer related to Q. 3
If you find solution other than mentioned above, please show the solution to Faculty
member present there.
4. Write a C program that splits a given string into two parts (Equal parts if the given string length is
even, length of first part is one more than 2nd part, otherwise) and and print them. (String functions
defined in stringh.h such as strlen(), strrev() cannot be used. ) [3]
include <stdio.h>
int main()
{ char a[50]; char b[50]; char c[50];
scanf("%s",a); int i=0;
while(a[i]!=’NULL’) { i++; /* Computing the length of the string / }
Check rest of the part also!
/* One Solution may be as follows
if(i%2==0) for( j=0;j<i/2;j++) b[j]=a[j];
b[j] = String delimiter;
for(k=0;j<i;k++) c[k]=a[j++]; c[k]=0; else
3
for( j=0;j<(i/2+1);j++) b[j]=a[j];
b[j]=0;
for( k=0;j<i;k++) c[k]=a[j++];
c[k]=0;
printf("%s %s",b,c); */
return 0;
}
5. Describe the usefulness of local and global variables in C language. [2]

Answer: Global variable can be accessed by all functions in a program. It is useful
whenever all functions needs to access the same data.
Scope of a local variable lies within a block where it is defined. Therefore, same variable
identifier can be used in other blocks.
Section D: 15 Marks
1. Write a recursive function to compute xk , where x is a number and k is a positive integer. [3]
Answer:
float powerr(float, int);
int main() { int k; float x; /* int x is also OK. */ scanf("%f %d",&x,&k);
float t=power(x,k); printf("%f ",t); return 0; }
float power(float x, int k) { if(k==0) return 1; else return (x*power(x,k-1)); }
2. Write a function to find whether a given matrix is lower tringular or not. (A square matrix is called
lower triangular if all the entries above the main diagonal are zeros.) The given matrix will be passed
as an argument to the function in main() function.
[6]
Answer:
int lower(int [][10], int);
int main() { int a[10][10],i,j,n;
printf("Give the size of the Matrix"); scanf("%d",&n);
printf("Give Matrix");
for(i=0;i<n;i++)
for(j=0;j<n;j++) scanf("%d",&a[i][j]);
int t=lower(a,n);
if(t==0) printf(" Given Matrix is not Lower Tringular");
else printf(" Given Matrix is Lower Tringular"); return 0; }
int lower(int a[][10], int t)

{ int i,j; int flag=0;
for(i=0;i<t;i++)
for(j=i+1;j<t;j++)
if(a[i][j]!=0) flag=1; break;
if(flag==1) break;
4
if(flag==0 & i==t) return 1; else return 0; }
One will get full credit if s/he writes only the function!
3. Write a C program to count of inputs that are even and odd among three positive integers without
using if-then-else. (Do not use if-then-else) [3]
Answer:
#include <stdio.h>
int main() { int a; int t=0;
for(int i=0;i<3;i++)
{scanf("%d",a);
(a%2)?t++:b; }
printf("Even=%d Odd=%d",3-t,t); return 0; }
Important: One cannot use if, if-then, if-then-else
4. Draw the block diagram of computer system with brief description. [3]
