4. How many can max number of arguments present in function in the c99 compiler?
a) 99
b) 90
c) 102
d) 127
Answer: D

5. Which is more effective while calling the functions?
a) call by value
b) call by reference
c) call by pointer
d) call by object
Answer: B

6. What will be the output of the following C++ code?
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void car{
cout << "Audi R8";
}
int main() {
car();
return 0;
}
a) Audi R8
b) Audi R8Audi R8
c) compile time error
d) runtime error
Answer: C
Explanation: We have to use the semicolon to declare the function in line 3. This is called a function declaration and a function declaration ends with a semicolon.
7. What will be the output of the following C++ code?
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void fun(int x, int y){
x = 20;
y = 10;
}
int main() {
int x = 10;
fun (x, x);
cout << x;
return 0;
}
a) 10
b) 20
c) compile time error
d) 30
Answer: A
