Computer Programming – PYQ Analysis

& Prediction (CUK)


🔁 Common & Repeated Questions (2022-2024)
 1. Difference Between Structure and Union – Repeated all 3 years.
 2. Pointers (theory + program) – Consistent presence every year.
 3. Recursion – Appears in various forms (reverse, sum, pattern).
 4. Break, Continue, Go to – Frequently asked with example programs.
 5. File Handling – Especially text vs binary, and functions like getc(), fprintf().

📌 Important Questions/Topics from PYQs


1. Section A (Short Theory Concepts):

 What are pre-processors?


 Types of input/output functions: formatted vs unformatted.
 What are conditional operators? (with example)
 Base address calculation in arrays.
 Self-referential structures.
 Null pointer vs dangling pointer.
 Compilation steps.
 What is a function declaration? Why is it necessary?

2. Section B (Coding/Explanation Based):

 Pattern printing (Floyd’s Triangle, star pattern).


 Second max/second min using function.
 Reverse string/array using function or pointer.
 Pass array to function & return largest element.
 Palindrome check using algorithm.
 String operations: strcpy(), strcat(), reverse, concat (user-defined).
 Array of structures (e.g., employee details).

🔮 2025 Predicted Questions


3. Section A Predictions (Attempt All):

 Define preprocessor.
 Explain Break, Continue with example.
 Explain conditional operators with syntax.
 What are different pointer operations?
 Difference between binary and text files.
 Explain self-referential structure.

4. Section B Predictions (Attempt Any 3):

 Differentiate between structure and union (with program).


 Write a program to reverse array using pointers / recursion / print Floyd’s triangle.
 File handling functions (getc(), putchar(), fprintf()) with example.
 Pass array to function and return largest element.
 Algorithm to check if number is palindrome.
 Explain inbuilt and user-defined string functions.

📚 Study Strategy
Priority Topic Reason

🔥 High Pointers, Recursion, Repeated in all papers


Structures & Unions

✅ Sure File Handling, String Always in Section B


Functions

🌟 Likely Pattern Printing, Array Simple but common


Operations

⚠️Watch Compilation Steps, Null Appear inconsistently but


Pointer, Break/Continue often
