Predict the Output:
int main()
{
int *p=(int *)2000;
scanf("%d",2000);
printf("%d",*p);
return 0;
}

if input is 20 ,what will be print

Answer Posted / vadivelt

Result:
Ans1.It prints the input given
Ans2.Program Crashes

Why Ans1?
--
1.If the memory 2000 is not a system or read only location
and if it is not a address of other constant varible which
is assigned by the compiler, then the input is stored in
the location. And it will be fetched in the prinf()
statement using *p and ll be printed.

Why Ans2?
--
In this program the pointer *p, does not holds the address
of a variable for which memory is allocated(may be static
or dynamic).Instead blindly it holds the address 2000.

The address may contain.
1.System files(OS) or
2.It may be a location from read only memory.

So, when we are trying to get input value and store it in
the location 2000, using scanf(), it may try to overwrite
the data in system file location or read only memory.

So the program Ultimately has to crash.

In a gymnastic competition, scoring is based on the average of all scores given by the judges excluding the maximum and minimum scores. Let the user input the number of judges, after that, input the scores from the judges. Output the average score. Note: In case, more than two judges give the same score and it happens that score is the maximum or minimum then just eliminate two scores. For example, if the number of judges is 5 and all of them give 10 points each. Then the maximum and minimum score is 10. So the computation would be 10+10+10, this time. The output should be 10 because 30/3 is 10.

A program that will create a movie seat reservation. The program will display the summary seats and its status. The user will be ask what seat no. to be reserved, then it will go back again to the summary to display the updated seat status. If the seat no. is already reserved then it will prompt an error message. And also if the input seat no is out of range then it will also prompt an error message. The program is continuously running. Termination of the program will depends on how the programmer will apply. Sample output: Movie Seats Reservation Summary of Seats: Seat 1: Available Seat 2: Available Seat 3: Available Seat 4: Available Seat 5: Available Enter seat no. (Press 0 to terminate Or the assigned seat capacity) : 1 Movie Seats Reservation Summary of Seats: Seat 1: Reserve Seat 2: Available Seat 3: Available Seat 4: Available Seat 5: Available Enter seat no. (Press 0 to terminate Or the assigned seat capacity) : 6 The Seat no. is out of range! Movie Seats Reservation Summary of Seats: Seat 1: Reserve Seat 2: Available Seat 3: Available Seat 4: Available Seat 5: Available Enter seat no. (Press 0 to terminate Or the assigned seat capacity) : 1 The Seat no. is already reserved! Movie Seats Reservation Summary of Seats: Seat 1: Reserve Seat 2: Available Seat 3: Available Seat 4: Available Seat 5: Available Enter seat no. (Press 0 to terminate Or the assigned seat capacity) : 0 GoodBye... Thank You!!!
