7.What is string?

A string is a sequence of characters ending with NULL. It can be treated as a one–dimensional

array of characters terminated by a NULL character.

8.What is NULL character?

The NULL character is an escape sequence with ASCII value 0 and is different from the ASCII character'0'.

9.What is Pointer?

Pointer is a variable which store the address of other variable.Since pointer is a variable it has also its address.

Variable is a identifier which are use for store and modify the data.

13.What is a Constant?

A constant is a value that does not change during the program execution. A constant used in

C does not occupy memory.

14.What are global variables?

Global Variables are those, which are required to be acccessed by all the functions defined after their declaration. So, the variables declared before the main {) can be acccessed by all the functions, which follow their declaration.

or ,you can say it in simple word a variatble which are declare outside the function is known as global variable .Global variable is store in data section of memory

15.What is a keyword?

Keywords are those words of C which have predefined meaning assigned by the C language.They form a part of the database required by the C compiler.or you can also state as keyword are the word whose meaning has already explained to the C compiler.

16.Give the rules for variable declaration?

• The rules for variable declaration in C are given below :

• A variable name consists of alphabets, digits and the underscore (_) character

• The length of variable should be kept upto 8 characters though your system may allow

upto 40 characters

• They must begin with an alphabet

• Some systems also recognize an underscore as the first character

• White space and commas are not allowed

• Any reserved word (keyword) cannot be used as a variable name.

25.What is break statement?

When a break is encountered inside a loop, the loop is terminated and the control passes to

the statement following the body of the loop.

26.What is goto statement?

This is an unconditional control statement that transfers the flow of contorl to another part of the program.

27.what is continue statement?

The  continue statement is used when we want to go to the next iteration of the loop after skipping some statement of the loop.

28.What is the difference between break and continue statement?

The difference between break and continue is that when break is encountered the loop terminates and the control is transferred to the next statement following the loop,but when a continue statement is encountered the loop is not terminated and the next iteration of the loop starts.

29.What is nesting of loops?

When a loop is written inside the body of another loop,it is known as nesting of loops.

30.What is loop?

Loops are used when we want to execute a part of the program or a block of statements several times.

31 .What is macro?

The second preprocessor function is macro definition. A macro is formal syntax that can be used to generate statements for use in a program. For the C language, the macro generates C statements.

32.What is the difference between c &c++?

c++ is an object oriented programing but c is a procedure oriented programing.c is super set of c++. c can't suport inheritance,function overloading, method overloading etc. but c++ can do this.In c-programe the main function could not return a value but in the c++ the main function should return a value

33.What is friend function?

The function declaration should be preceded by the keyword friend.The function definitions does not use either the keyword or the scope operator :: The functions that are declared with the keyword friend as friend function.Thus, a friend function is an ordinary function or a member of another class

34.What is the use of getchar() function?

It returns a character just entered from the standard input unit, that is, keyboard. The entered character can be either assigned to a character variable or echoed to the computer screen.

• initialized data segment
• uninitialized data segment
• stack
• heap(unreserved section of memory)

42.What is signed and unsigned?

A numeric value, may have a positive or a negative sign. In the memory, for a variable, one bit is used exclusively to maintain the sign of the data. If we don't have sign, the sign bit also may be used for data. If the value is negative, the sign bit is 1, and if it is positive, it will be 0.

43.What is Lvalue require?
