What is a pointer on pointer?
It’s a pointer variable which can hold the address of another pointer variable. It de-refers twice to point to the data held by the designated pointer variable.
Therefore ‘x’ can be accessed by **q.
Distinguish between malloc() & calloc() memory allocation.
Both allocates memory from heap area/dynamic memory. By default calloc fills the allocated memory with 0’s.
What is keyword auto for?
By default every local variable of the function is automatic (auto). In the below function both the variables ‘i’ and ‘j’ are automatic variables.
NOTE ? A global variable can’t be an automatic variable.
What are the valid places for the keyword break to appear.
Break can appear only with in the looping control and switch statement. The purpose of the break is to bring the control out from the said blocks.
Explain the syntax for for loop.
for(expression-1;expression-2;expression-3) {//set of statements }When control reaches for expression-1 is executed first. Then following expression-2, and if expression-2 evaluates to non-zero ‘set of statements’ and expression-3 is executed, follows expression-2.
What is difference between including the header file with-in angular braces < > and double quotes “ “
If a header file is included with in < > then the compiler searches for the particular header file only with in the built in include path. If a header file is included with in “ “, then the compiler searches for the particular header file first in the current working directory, if not found then in the built in include path.
How a negative integer is stored.
Get the two’s compliment of the same positive integer. Eg: 1011 (-5)
Step-1 ? One’s compliment of 5 : ~0101->1010
Step-2 ? Add 1 to above, giving 1011, which is -5
What is a static variable?
A static local variables retains its value between the function call and the default value is 0. The following function will print 1 2 3 if called thrice.
If a global variable is static then its visibility is limited to the same source code.

A pointer pointing to nothing is called so. Eg: char *p=NULL;

Used to resolve the scope of global symbol.
Explain the purpose of the function sprintf().
Prints the formatted output onto the character array.
What is the meaning of base address of the array?
The starting address of the array is called as the base address of the array.
When should we use the register storage specifier?
If a variable is used most frequently then it should be declared using register storage specifier, then possibly the compiler gives CPU register for its storage to speed up the look up of the variable.
S++ or S = S+1, which can be recommended to increment the value by 1 and why?
S++, as it is single machine instruction (INC) internally.
What is a dangling pointer?
A pointer initially holding valid address, but later the held address is released or freed. Then such a pointer is called as dangling pointer.
What is the purpose of the keyword typedef?
It is used to alias the existing type. Also used to simplify the complex declaration of the type.
What is lvalue and rvalue?
The expression appearing on right side of the assignment operator is called as rvalue. Rvalue is assigned to lvalue, which appears on left side of the assignment operator. The lvalue should designate to a variable not a constant.

The parameters sent to the function at calling end are called as actual parameters while at the receiving of the function definition called as formal parameters.
Can a program be compiled without main() function?
Yes, it can be but cannot be executed, as the execution requires main() function definition.
What is the advantage of declaring void pointers?
When we do not know what type of the memory address the pointer variable is going to hold, then we declare a void pointer for such.
Where an automatic variable is stored?
Every local variable by default being an auto variable is stored in stack memory.
What is a nested structure?
A structure containing an element of another structure as its member is referred so.
What is the difference between variable declaration and variable definition?
Declaration associates type to the variable whereas definition gives the value to the variable.
What is a self-referential structure?
A structure containing the same structure pointer variable as its element is called as self-referential structure.
Does a built-in header file contains built-in function definition?
No, the header file only declares function. The definition is in library which is linked by the linker.
Explain modular programming.
Dividing the program in to sub programs (modules/function) to achieve the given task is modular approach. More generic functions definition gives the ability to re-use the functions, such as built-in library functions.
What is a token?
A C program consists of various tokens and a token is either a keyword, an identifier, a constant, a string literal, or a symbol.
What is a preprocessor?
Preprocessor is a directive to the compiler to perform certain things before the actual compilation process begins.
Explain the use of %i format specifier w.r.t scanf().
Can be used to input integer in all the supported format.
How can you print a \ (backslash) using any of the printf() family of functions.
Escape it using \ (backslash).
Does a break is required by default case in switch statement?
Yes, if it is not appearing as the last case and if we do not want the control to flow to the following case after default if any.
When to user -> (arrow) operator.
If the structure/union variable is a pointer variable, to access structure/union elements the arrow operator is used.
What are bit fields?
We can create integer structure members of differing size apart from non-standard size using bit fields. Such structure size is automatically adjusted with the multiple of integer size of the machine.
What are command line arguments?
The arguments which we pass to the main() function while executing the program are called as command line arguments. The parameters are always strings held in the second argument (below in args) of the function which is array of character pointers. First argument represents the count of arguments (below in count) and updated automatically by operating system.
What are the different ways of passing parameters to the functions? Which to use when?
Call by value ? We send only values to the function as parameters. We choose this if we do not want the actual parameters to be modified with formal parameters but just used.
Call by reference ? We send address of the actual parameters instead of values. We choose this if we do want the actual parameters to be modified with formal parameters.
What is the purpose of built-in stricmp() function.
It compares two strings by ignoring the case.
Describe the file opening mode “w+”.
Opens a file both for reading and writing. If a file is not existing it creates one, else if the file is existing it will be over written.

fun_ptr(); [Or] (*fun_ptr)();Explain the use of comma operator (,).
Comma operator can be used to separate two or more expressions.
What is a NULL statement?
A null statement is no executable statements such as ; (semicolon).
Above does nothing 10 times.
What is a static function?
A function’s definition prefixed with static keyword is called as a static function. You would make a function static if it should be called only within the same source code.
