PIXELES CLASSES BCA & MCA (IGNOU)

Course Code : MCS-011

Course Title : Problem Solving and Programming
Assignment Number : BCA (II)/011/Assignment/ 2015

1. Define a flowchart. Write an algorithm and draw a corresponding flowchart to Page | 1

create a simple multiple choice question (MCQ) examination of 25 questions for 50
marks along with evaluation process too. (20 Marks)
Ans:
Flowchart is a way to represent a programming process in graphical way. A picture or
diagram is an essential element to understand the complex problem. In programming, such
types of drawings are used for representing a program and its process is known as
Flowchart. “It is a pictorial representation of a program”.

2. Compare and contrast the characteristics and/or organisation of the Write an
interactive C program for Q1.(10 Marks)
Ans:-
#include<stdio.h> Page | 2
#include<conio.h>
main()
{
char qs[][100]={
{"\n1. PIXELES Classes teach...Students.\n\t (1). IGNOU (2). IP"},
{"\n2. Who is CM of Delhi? \n\t(1). Narender Modi (2). Arvind Kej"},
{"\n3. What colour is Grass? \n\t(1). Green (2). Black"},
{"\n4. PIXELES Classes are Located at....\n\t(1). Nangloi & Uttam
Nagar (2). Narela & Nangloi"},
{"\n5. Duration of BCA is....\n\t(1). 8 Years (2). 3 Years"},
};

int ans[]={1,2,1,1,2};
int choice;
int score=0,a=0,t;
for(a=0;a<5;a++)
{
clrscr();
puts(qs[a]);
printf("\nEnter the Ans( 1 or 2 )....\n");
scanf("%d",&choice);

if(ans[a]==choice)
score=score+1;
if(a<4)

}

3. Discuss the significance of BITWISE operators in C programming language. Also, Page | 3

write an interactive C program to illustrate them.(10 Marks)
Ans:
Bitwise operator
Operator Description
& Binary AND Operator copies a bit to the result if it exists in both operands.
| Binary OR Operator copies a bit if it exists in either operand.
^ Binary XOR Operator copies the bit if it is set in one operand but not both.
~ Binary Ones Complement Operator is unary and has the effect of 'flipping' bits.
<< Binary Left Shift Operator. The left operands value is moved left by the number of bits
specified by the right operand.
>> Binary Right Shift Operator. The left operands value is moved right by the number of
bits specified by the right operand.
Example
Try the following example to understand all the bitwise operators available in C programming
language:
#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
unsigned int a = 50;
unsigned int b = 11;
int c = 0;
c = a & b;
printf("Value of c is %d\n", c );
c = a | b;
printf("Value of c is %d\n", c );
c = a ^ b;
printf(" Value of c is %d\n", c );
c = ~a;
printf("Value of c is %d\n", c );
c = a << 2;
printf("Value of c is %d\n", c );

c = a >> 2;
printf("Value of c is %d\n", c );
}
4. Define an array. Write an interactive C program to take two single dimensional
arrays of integers and merge them into a single dimensional array, excluding the Page | 4
common elements of both the arrays.
(10 Marks)
Ans:
“An array is collection of data having same data type that can be accessed by a numerical
index and represented by same name”.
int num [5];
Here ‘num’ is a variable name that can accept 5 integer value. Data are stored in array are
called elements of array and [ ] is called subscript. Memory representation of array- it
allocates 10 bytes memory space for the 5-integer value. It allocates contiguous memory
location.

#include<stdio.h>
void sort(int a[])
{
int i,j,t;
for(i=0;i<=4;i++)
{
for(j=i;j<=4;j++)
{
if(a[i]>=a[j])
{
t=a[i];
a[i]=a[j];
a[j]=t;
}
}
}
}
int merge(int a[],int b[],int c[])
{
int i=0,j=0,k=0;

5. Write an interactive C program which illustrates the following concepts:
(i) Function with no arguments and no return value.
(ii) Function with arguments and no return value.
(iii) Function with arguments and with return value. Page | 7
(10 Marks)
Ans:-
#include<stdio.h>
void sum() //Function with no arguments and no return value.
{
int a,b,c;
printf("enter the number");
scanf("%d%d",&a,&b);
c=a+b;
printf("\nSum=%d",c);
}
void add(int a, int b) //Function with arguments and no return value.
{
int c;
c=a+b;
printf("\nadd=%d",c);
}
int calculate(int a, int b) //Function with arguments and return value.
{
int c;
c=a+b;
return c;
}

main()
{
int x;
clrscr();
sum();
add(4,5);
x=calculate(7,5);
