Part I: Write “True” if the statement is correct and “False” if the statement is incorrect. (1pt each=5pts).

1. In nested if else, if a condition is false, the statement associated with it is executed and it
terminates the whole if-else chain.
2. A function cannot be defined inside another function.
3. With the declarations:
a. int i = 10;
int* ptr = &i;
the following statement will set the value of the variable i to 11:
*ptr = 11;
4. The following two functions can coexist in the same C++ program.
a. int foo(const char ch);

2
 b. bool foo(int &x, int &y);
5. strlen("Cletus") is 7 because of the null character ('\0') that ties on the end of 'Cletus'.

Part II: Choose the best answer among the given alternatives (1pt each=15pts)

1. One of the following is NOT true

A) when the result of the condition is true in an if else block, the body of the else statement
is never executed.
B) when result of the condition is false, the body of the if statement is executed.
C) case keyword is used to identify possible entry points of switch statement.
D) In do while, its body is executed first and then the loop condition is examined.
E) If expression 2 is omitted in for loop, C++ assumes that the continuation-test condition is
true which results in a forever loop condition.
2. One of the following statements is used for specifying alternate paths of execution, depending on the
outcome of a logical condition.
A) If statement

int main()
{
int i, j;
int val[3][4]={8,7,2,5,3,10,7,6,1,51,22,100};
for (i=2;i<3;i++)
for(j=0;j<1;j++)
cout<<” “<<val[i][j];

Part V. Write a C++ program for the following questions (15pts)

1. Write a program that calculates and displays the income tax of a salary entered from the
keyboard. Your program must calculate taxes according to the following rates: (4 pts)
Up to 200Br 0%
