SECTION-A
Q.1 Attempt all parts. [20]
a) How does machine language differ from high level language? [KCS101T.1] [2] L2
b) Differentiate in between keywords and identifier and mention the rules to [KCS101T.2] [2] L2
construct identifier.
c) Explain the compilation and execution process of c program. [KCS101T.2] [2] L2
d) What is the characteristics and purpose of escape sequence? [KCS101T.2] [2] L2
e) Define data types in C. Discuss primitive data types in terms of memory [KCS101T.2] [2] L2
occupied, format specifies and range.
f) What is the output of the following code: [KCS101T.3] [2] L3
void main()
{
int i=-3,j=2,k=0,m;
m= ++i && ++j || ++k;
printf(“%d%d%d%d”,i,j,k,m);
}
g) Explain the basic structure of c program in brief. [KCS101T.2] [2] L2
h) What is the difference between syntax error and logical error? [KCS101T.2] [2] L2
i) Differentiate between algorithm and pseudo code. [KCS101T.2] [2] L2
j) Distinguish between Multitasking and Multiprocessing operating [KCS101T.1] [2] L2
system.
SECTION-B
Q.2 Attempt all parts [80]
a) What do you mean by digital computer? Draw a neat block diagram of a [KCS101T.1] [08] L2
computer and explain the function of each unit.
b) Differentiate between the following [KCS101T.2] [08] L2
(i) Compiler and interpreter
(ii) Linker and loader
c) Differentiate between implicit type conversion and explicit type [KCS101T.2] [08] L2
conversion in C with example. Discuss the operator precedence and
associativity of the operators.
d) What are the bitwise, unary and comma operator? Explain each in detail with c [KCS101T.2] [08] L2
example. Accept any two numbers, if first number is greater than second number
then print the sum of these two numbers, otherwise print their difference. Write
this program using ternary operator.
e) Define switch case and describe limitations for using it in a program. Write a [KCS101T.3] [08] L3
program in C to perform basic function of calculator using switch case.
f) What is operating system? Discuss responsibility of operating system and its [KCS101T.1] [08] L2
types also.
g) Write an algorithm to input number and check whether the input number is [KCS101T.1] [08] L2
prime or not. Also draw its flow chart.
h) Write a C program to accept a coordinate point in a XY coordinate system and [KCS101T.3] [08] L3
determine in which quadrant the coordinate point lies. Also draw its flow
chart.
i) Write a program in C to calculate Electricity bill of a given customer. The unit [KCS101T.3] [08] L3
consumed by the user should be taken from the keyboard and display the total
amount to pay to the customer. The charge are as follow:
UNIT Charge/unit
upto 199 @1.20
200 and above but less than 400 @1.50
400 and above but less than 600 @1.80
600 and above @2.00
If bill exceeds Rs. 400 then a surcharge of 15% will be charged and the
minimum bill should be of Rs. 100/-
j) Write a C program to evaluate the result of a student by accepting marks in [KCS101T.3] [08] L3
three subjects. If any subject mark is less than 35 then the student is failing. For
average greater than equal to 60, the student is first-class else it is 2nd class. If
the student does not fail then also display the total mark and average mark.
