C aptitude 17.1

  int i,j;
for(i=0;i<=10;i++)
{
j+=5;
assert(i<5);
}


Answer: Runtime error: Abnormal program termination. assert failed (i<5), ,

Explanation: sserts are used during debugging to make sure that certain conditions are satisfied. If assertion fails, the program will terminate reporting the same. After debugging use, #undef NDEBUG and this will disable all the assertions from the source code. Assertion is a good debugging tool to make use of.

C aptitude 17.2

  main()
{
int i=-1;
+i;
printf("i = %d, +i = %d n",i,+i);
}

Answer: i = -1, +i = -1

Explanation:Unary + is the only dummy operator in C. Where-ever it comes you can just ignore it just because it has no effect in the expressions (hence the name dummy operator).

C aptitude 17.3

    main()
{
char *cptr,c;
void *vptr,v;
c=10; v=0;
cptr=&c; vptr=&v;
printf("%c%v",c,v);
}

Answer:Compiler error (at line number 4): size of v is Unknown.

Explanation: You can create a variable of type void * but not of type void, since void is an empty type. In the second line you are creating variable vptr of type void * and v of type void hence an error.
