Ans: 0 0 0 0
The first thing you have to remember is that static
variables are initialized only once. The second thing is
that static variables have a life time scope and they retain
their value between function calls.
"i" is first initialized to 5. in the if condition the value
of i is changed to 4. main() is called again and the value
of i is changed to 3 in the if condition and main is called
again. Now the value of i is changed to 2 and main is called
again. Now the value of i is changed to 1 and main is called
again. After this the value of i is changed to "0" and the
block is excited.
As the value of i is now "0", it is printed 4 times for each
of the calls for main(). So the ans will be
0
