Week 7 Assignment Solution Jan 2023

The document contains solutions to 10 questions about C programming concepts like arrays, strings, memory allocation, etc. 1. The solutions explain that searching in an array uses both the key and index, a 2D array prints the third string as given by the index, and initializing a string with double quotes adds a null terminator while initializing with characters does not. 2. Another solution shows that printing an empty string would not cause an error, and explains how a 2D array is initialized and accessed in memory with calculations. 3. The last solution indicates there is a compilation error due to an invalid initialization of a 2D array without specifying the second dimension.

Week 7 Assignment Solution 2023

1. The searching operation in an array is done using


a) Key and index
b) Only key
c) Only index
d) None of these
Solution: (a) Both key and array index are used to perform search operation in arrays.

2. Find the output of the following C program.


#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
char a[10][8] = {"hi", "hello", "fellows"};
printf("%s", a[2]);
return 0;
}

a) fellows
b) h
c) fello
d) Compiler error
Solution: (a) a[2] indicates the 3rd string of the 2D array. Thus fellows will be printed.

3. What will be the output?


# include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
char str1[] = "Week-7-Assignment";
char str2[] = {'W', 'e', 'e', 'k', '-', '7', '-', 'A', 's','s','i','g','n','m','e','n','t'};
int n1 = sizeof(str1)/sizeof(str1[0]);
int n2 = sizeof(str2)/sizeof(str2[0]);
printf("n1 = %d, n2 = %d", n1, n2);
return 0;
}

a) n1=18, n2=17
b) n1=18, n2=18
c) n1=17, n1=17
d) n1=17, n2=18

Solution: (a) The size of str1 is 18 and size of str2 17.


When an array is initialized with string in double quotes, compiler adds a ‘\0’ at the end.
4. Consider the following C program segment:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
int main()
{
Week 7 Assignment Solution 2023

char p[20];
char s[] = "string";
int length = strlen(s);
int i;
for (i = 0; i < length; i++)
p[i] = s[length - i];
printf("%s", p);
return 0;
}
The output would be-

a) gnirts
b) gnirt
c) string
d) no output is printed
Solution: (d)
Let us consider below line inside the for loop p[i] = s[length - i];
For i = 0, p[i] will be s[6 - 0] and s[6] is ‘\0′
So p[0] becomes ‘\0’. It doesn’t matter what comes in p[1], p[2]….. as p[0] will not change
for i >0. Nothing is printed if we print a string with first character ‘\0′

5. What will be the value of ‘i’ after the execution of the C code given below?

static char str1[] = "dills";


static char str2[20];
static char str3[] = "daffo";
int i;
i = strcmp(strcat(str3, strcpy(str2, str1)), "daffodills");

a) 0
b) 1
c) -1
d) None
Solution: (a) 0
strcat(str3, strcpy(str2, str1)) makes it “daffodills”, hence strcmp(“daffodills”, “daffodills”)=0

6. If the starting address of an float array Arr[10][10] is 2000, what would be the
memory address of the element Arr[5][6]? (float takes 4 bytes of memory)
a) 2268
b) 2120
c) 2224
d) 2144
Week 7 Assignment Solution 2023

Solution: (c) If ‘a’, ‘b’ and ‘c’ denotes the starting address, number of columns and size in
bytes for each element respectively of array Arr[][], then the location of Arr[i][j] can be
calculated as
𝐴𝑑𝑑𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑠 = 𝑎 + (𝑖 ∗ 𝑏 + 𝑗) ∗ 𝑐
Thus the address of Arr[5][6] is 2000+(5*10+6)*4=2224

7. In C, the placement of elements of a two dimensional array is


a) Row wise
b) Column wise
c) Diagonal wise
d) Bottom to top wise
Solution: (a) In C the placement of 2D array in memory is row wise.

8. What will be the output?


# include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int a[2][3] = {1, 2, 3, 4};
int i = 0, j = 0;
for (i = 0; i < 2; i++)
for (j = 2; j >=0; j--)
printf("%d", a[i][j]);
return 0;
}

Solution: 321004
In a[2][3] = {1, 2, 3, 4}; only 4 values are given. The rest will be taken as 0. So, finally
a[2][3] = {{1, 2, 3}, {4,0,0}}; So, 321004 will be printed as per the given for loop.

9. What will be the output?


#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int i;
char a[] = "";
if(printf("%s", a))
printf("The string is empty");
else
printf("The string is not empty");
return 0;
}

a) The string is empty


b) The string is not empty
Week 7 Assignment Solution 2023

c) Error
d) None
Solution: (b) The string is not empty

10. What is the output of the following C code?


#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int ary[3][3];
ary[][] = {{1, 2, 3}, {4, 5, 6},{7,8,9}};
printf("%d\n", ary[2][0]);
return 0;
}

a) Compilation error
b) 7
c) 1
d) 2

Solution: (a) The initialization method of the array is not valid in C. The second dimension
must be specified.
