Assignment C Language

C language was developed by Dennis Ritchie. A flow-chart is a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm, while pseudo code translates English into programming languages. The ALU can perform both arithmetic and logical operations. When assigning values to variables X and Y, they will have distinct memory locations but both will contain the value 10. The factorial of 6 is 720. The sum of the digits in the number 1234 is 10. To calculate the HCF using the Euclidean algorithm, the conditions to check are if the remainder is 0. A compiler helps translate high-level languages to machine-level languages. RAM is used for currently processed programs and data.

ASSIGNMENT 1 (SOLUTION)

1. C language was developed by


a) Dennis Ritchie
b) Bjarne Stroustrup
c) James Gosling
d) Guido van Rossum

Solution: (a)

2. A 2D diagram to represent the steps to be followed to solve a problem is known as


a) Flow-chart
b) Pseudo-code
c) Both (a) and (b)
d) None of these

Solution: (a) A flow-chart is a representation of an algorithm using diagrams.

3. Which one of the following statement is the most appropriate?


a) Flowchart is diagrammatic representation of the algorithm. Pseudo code is just
another name of algorithm.
b) Flowchart is basically a diagrammatic representation of the algorithm.
Whereas in pseudo code normal English language is translated into the
programming languages to be worked on.
c) Pseudo code is basically a diagrammatic representation of the algorithm.
Whereas in flowchart normal English language is translated into the
programming languages to be worked on.
d) Pseudo code is another name of programming. Whereas in flowchart is
diagrammatic representation of algorithm.

Solution: (b) Flowchart is basically a diagrammatic representation of the algorithm.


Whereas in pseudo code normal English language is translated into the programming
languages to be worked on.

4. The ALU of a computer


a) Can perform logical operation only
b) Can perform arithmetic operation only
c) Can perform both arithmetic and logical operations
d) None of the above.

Solutions: (c) Can perform both arithmetic and logical operations


ASSIGNMENT 1 (SOLUTION)

5. When we write X=10 and Y=X, which of the following memory assignment is
correct
a) X and Y will have same location and 10 will be stored.
b) X and Y will have two distinct locations and 10 will be stored in both.
c) X and Y will have same location and only X will contain value 10
d) X and Y will have two distinct locations and only X will contain value 10

Solution: (b) X=10 will create a memory location for X and 10 will be stored. After
declaring Y=X, a new memory location for Y will be created and the value of X will be
copied in Y. This both of them will contain 10.

6. If input from the user (for Read N)is 6, the output of the following algorithm will be

a) 120
b) 720
c) 5040
d) 1

Solution: (b) The flowchart finds the factorial of the number 6. Hence, the right answer is
6!=720

7. X is an integer (X=1234). The print value of Y of the algorithm below is (note: ‘%’ is
the modulo operator, which calculates the reminder and ‘/’ gives the quotient of a
division operation)
ASSIGNMENT 1 (SOLUTION)

a) 4321
b) 10
c) 4
d) 9

Solution: (b) The flow chart calculates the sum of the digits in X. So, the right answer is
1+2+3+4=10

8. The flow chart calculates the HCF of two numbers a and b (where a is greater than or
equal to b).
Which of the following conditions need to be put inside the blanks 1 and 2 to
calculate the HCF?
ASSIGNMENT 1 (SOLUTION)

a) 1. r!=0
2. a=r and b=q
b) 1. q=0
2. a=b and b=r
c) 1. r=0
2. a=q and b=r
d) 1. r=0
2. a=b and b=r

Solution: (d) This is Euclidian Algorithm of finding HCF of two numbers.

9. Compiler helps in the translation from


a) Integer to binary
b) High-level program to binary digits
c) High-level language to machine level language
d) Pseudo code to computer program

Solution: (c) Compiler helps in translating from high-level language to machine level
language

10.Computer memory which is used to store programs and data currently being
processed by CPU is

a) ROM
b) RAM
c) Cache memory
d) PROM
ASSIGNMENT 1 (SOLUTION)

Solution: (b) RAM
