2. (20 Pts) Assume that the following codes work properly. What are the outputs of the
following programs?
a. Show your processing steps at the end of every loop iteration(5 Pts).
int x = 1, y = 7, z = 0;
while(++x <= y)
{
z+= x++;
printf("%d ", z);
}
printf("%d ", x);

Answer:
2 6 12 8
b. Show the output and explain your answer. (3 pts)
int a, b=70;
if(b<=80) a=100;
else a=300;
if(b<=100) a=200;
if(b<=120) a=400;
else a = 1000;
printf("%d ", a);
Answer:
400
c. Show the output and explain your answer (5 pts)
int main ()
{
int a=4, b;
b = 4;
b = a++;
printf ("%d %d %d %d", a++, --b, ++a, b--);
 }

Answer:
5373

d. Show your processing steps at the end of every loop iteration and show the final
output. (7 pts)
x=10;
y=35;
a=x;
b=y;
while (b != 0)
{
t=b;
b=a%b;
a=t;}
h=a;
l=(x*y)/h;
printf("H= %d\n",h);
printf("L = %d",l);
}

Answer:
H= 5
L = 70

3. (9 pts) (Multiple Choices) Answer the following questions by selecting the correct choice.

a. Which is valid C expression?

A) int my_num = 100,000; B) int my_num = 100000; C) int my num = 1000; D) int $my_num =
10000;
b. What will be the output of the following C code?

#include <stdio.h>
void main(){int x = 5 % 2; printf("Value of x is %d", x);}
A) Value of x is 2.3 B) Value of x is 1 C)Value of x is 0.3 D)Compile time
error

c. What will be the output of the following C code?

#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{int i = 1,j=2;
if (i && j )printf("Yes\n");
else printf("No\n");}
A) Yes B) No C) Yes \n D) Compile time error

4. (15 pts) Find the error in each of the following code segments and explain how to correct it.
(Note: There may be more than one error.)
a. x = 1; => Missing data type
while (x <= 10 ); => without ;
 x++;
}
b. switch ( n ) {
case 1:
printf( "The number is 1\n" ); => break
case 2:
printf( "The number is 2\n" );
break;
default:
printf( "The number is not 1 or 2\n" );
break;
}

c. int main ( void )

{ int x = 1 total = 0, y;
while ( x <= 10 ) {
y = x * x;
printf( "%d\n", &y ); => &
total += y--;
++x+; => ++x
}

5. (25 pts) (Flow - Charts) Flowchart is a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm. Draw

the flowcharts for the following problems.
a. (10 pts) A number is WOW if the sum of square of its digits is an even number that is
divisible by 4.
For example:
� 245, 2^2 + 4^2 + 5^2 = 45 => 45 is not an even number so 245 is not a WOW number.
� 123, 1^2+2^2+3^2 = 14 => 14 is an even number but not divisible by 4 so 123 is not a
WOW number.
� 444, 4^2 + 4^2 + 4^2 =48 => is an even number and divisible by 4 (48/4 = 12) so 444 is a
WOW number.

b. (15 pts)

6. (20 pts) (Programming) In this problem, you have to create a program in C that will ask
from a mobile operator client to enter total number of telephone calls. After getting the
total number of phone calls consumed in a month, the program will calculate and print the
bill (for that month) as per given call rate:
a. First 150 phone calls are free of charge.
b. Next 250 calls are charged at a rate of 0.5 $ per minute.
c. And rest calls (after 400 calls) are charged at the rate of 3.5 $ per minute.
Input Specification: You have to read one integer value for phone calls.
Output Specification: Calculate the bill.

Sample Input 1 Sample Output 1

140 You have not crossed the limit of 150 calls.
 No charge

Sample Input 2 Sample Output 2

223 The bill you have to paid = 36.50 $
