Answer / kiran kumar yakkala

we have already C,
there are some programming languages which offer object
orientation before c++.
designers implemented C language with OOPS concept.
means c++ is nothing but C + 1 feature(OOPS), in C++
environment c++ means c+1. so thats why they named only C++.

free-form, multi-paradigm, compiled, general-purpose
programming language. It is regarded as a "middle-level"
language, as it comprises a combination of both high-level
and low-level language features. It was developed by Bjarne

You have an int array with n elements and a structure with three int members. ie struct No { unsigned int no1; unsigned int no2; unsigned int no3; }; Point1.Lets say 1 byte in the array element is represented like this - 1st 3 bits from LSB is one number, next 2 bits are 2nd no and last 3 bits are 3rd no. Now write a function, struct No* ExtractNos(unsigned int *, int count) which extracts each byte from array and converts LSByte in the order mentioned in point1.and save it the structure no1, no2, no3. in the function struct No* ExtractNos(unsigned int *, int count), first parameter points to the base address of array and second parameter says the no of elements in the array. For example: if your array LSB is Hex F7 then result no1 = 7, no2 = 2, no3 = 7. In the same way convert all the elements from the array and save the result in array of structure.
