T/F - You must explicitly use fopen to open the standard input, standard output, and error stream

False - standard input, standard output, standard error automatically are opened by C when program execution begins

What is the outcome/output of the following C program, if any? #include<stdio.h> void main() { int a =4,b=16; b >> 3; a = a << b; printf("%d %d ", b, a ); }

16, 262114 (b >> 3 should be b = b >> 3)

What is the outcome/output of the following C program, if any? #include<stdio.h> void main(void){ int check=2; switch(check){ case 1: printf("1\n"); case 2: printf("2\n"); case 3: printf("3\n"); default: printf("what ever\n"); } }

2 3 whatever

What will be output when you execute following c code? #include<stdio.h> void main(void){ char data[3][2]={0,1,2,3,4,5}; printf("%d ",data[1][0]); }

2 (draw 2D array to see elements)

What is the outcome/output of the following C program, if any? #include <stdio.h> int main(void) { int x = 2, y = 2; x /= x / y; printf("%d\n", x); return 0; }

2 (it is x/x/y)

How many A's will be printed and how many B's will be printed with the following code snippet? i=0; while (i<5){ printf("A "); i+=3; } while (i<7){ printf("B "); i+=2; } 6 A's and 6 B's 2 A's and 4B's 4 A's and 6 B's 4 A's and 4 B's 2 A's and 1 B's

2 A's and 1 B's

False. The files will be closed when the program execution terminates, but all files should be explicitly closed with fclose.

(True or False) A program must explicitly call fclose to close a file.

False. In most cases, sequential file records are not of uniform length. Therefore, it's possible that updating a record will cause other data to be overwritten.

False. Function fscanf can be used to read from the standard input by including the pointer to the standard input stream, stdin, in the call to fscanf.

(True or False) Function fscanf cannot be used to read data from the standard input.

False. It is possible to seek from the beginning of a file, from the end of a file and from the current location in the file.

(True or False) Function fseek may seek only relative to the beginning of a file.

False. Function rewind can be used to reposition the file position pointer to be the beginning of the file.

(True or False) If the file position pointer points to a location other than the beginning of the file, the file must be closed and reopened to read from the beginning of the file.

True.

(True or False) It's not necessary to search through all records in a random-access file to find a specific record.

False. Records in a random-access file are normally of uniform length.

(True or False) Records in a random-access files are not of uniform length.

What is the outcome/output of the following C program, if any? #include<stdio.h> void main(void) { int i=0; for(; i<=5; i++){ printf("%d", i); ++i; } }

024 (i is initialized at 0. It is then incremented to 1 and goes through the for loop and is 2. It is then incremented again and is 3 and is printed as 4)

1 -5 (p has address of a and q has address of b declared variables a and b one after another c=p-q is why you get 1 *p is dereferencing if you are not DECLARING IT The first *p is a declaration Dereference just means getting the value that p points to)

T/F - A program must explicitly call fclose() to close a file

False - The files will be closed automatically when program terminates, but all files should be explicitly closed with fclose

T/F - Function fseek may seek only relative to the beginning of the file

False - it is possible to seek from the beginning of the file, the end of the file, and from the current location in the file.

fclose

Function ________ closes a file.

fread

Function ________ is normally used when reading data from a file in random-access applications.

fgetc

Function ________ reads a character from a specified file.

fgets

Function ________ reads a line from a specified file.

fseek

Function _________ repositions the file position pointer to a specific location in the file.

What type of programming language uses generally uses only 0's and 1's for writing programs?

Machine Language

Which logical unit of computer architecture typically stores information for rapid access and generally contains volatile information that is lost when the computer is powered off?

Memory Unit

When fopen() is not able to open a file, it returns .....

NULL

if an error occurs while opening a file in any mode, fopen returns

NULL

Is it correct to say that in the following code segment, the file "tools.dat" is opened to add data to the file without discarding the current data. if ( ( tfPtr = fopen( "tools.dat", "w" ) ) != NULL ) {}

fscanf

The ________ function reads data from a file in a manner similar to how scanf reads from standard in.

T/F - It is not necessary to search through all the records in a random access file to find a specific file

True

T/F - fprintf can write to the standard output

True

The following statement should read a record from the file "payables.dat". File pointer payPtr refers to this file, and file pointer recPtr refers to the file "receive.dat": scanf( recPtr, "%d%s%d\n", &account, company, &amount ); Is there any error in the program segment above?

True

What is the output of this program by manipulating the text file? (Assume the text file has been already created.) #include <stdio.h> int main(){ char c; FILE * pFile; pFile = fopen("file.txt", "w"); for (c = 'a'; c <= 'g'; c+=2) { putc(c+1, pFile); } fclose(pFile); return 0; }

bdfh

fgets and fputs functions respectively

can be used to read a line from a file and write a line to a file

if function fclose is not called explicitly, the operating system will

close the file once the program is terminated

streams provide

communication channels between files and programs

create a file for reading and writing- if file already exists, discard current contents

wb+

create a file for update in binary mode - if file already exists, discard current contents

create a file for writing - if the file already exists, discard current contents

create a file for writing in binary mode- if file exists, discard current contents

feof

determines whether end of file indicator shows that there is nothing more to read in the file

Is the following a legal or illegal identifier in C? "a_variable"

legal

open an existing file reading in binary mode

rb+

open existing file for updating in reading and writing in binary mode

fgets

reads a line from a specified file

opening a file...`

returns a pointer to a FILE structure that contains info used to process the file

sequential access files

sequential access with fprintf and fscanf is not usually to update the file- instead, file is usually rewritten

fseek

sets file position pointer a specific position in the file, to write data at a specific location

the standard input, output, and error are manipulated using

stdin, stdout, and stderr

fwrite

transfers a specified number of bytes beginning at a specified location in memory to a file

fread

transfers a specified number of bytes from the location specified by the file position pointer to an area in memory beginning with a specified address
