program to identify the missing value using just sequence statements. Note that the logic you come up
with must be scalable, i.e., it must work for any array size. Suppose, we modify the question slightly
and allow exactly one value from the range [0..10] to appear twice and all other values appear at most
once. This means, two values from the range [0..10] are missing. Write a C program to identify the

Extra Credits: (2+2+2=6 marks) Write a logic for both the questions and a C program for any one
question. Let your presentation be neat.
Q1: You are given 10 boxes, each filled with coins, and an electronic balance. Note that the electronic
balance has exactly one weighing plate and if you keep x coins on the plate, the display will tell you the
weight of those x coins. The coins are of two types; one weighing 1 gram and the other weighing 1.1 grams.
It so happens that out of 10 boxes, exactly one box is such that all coins in it are 1.1 grams and for all other
boxes, all coins are 1 gram. What is your logic to find out the ’odd box’ (box with 1.1 g coins). You must
access the electronic scale the minimum number of times (the least number possible) to answer this question.

Q2: You are given an integer array of very large size, say k. The array is such that the elements are
in increasing order until some location and after that all other locations are filled with the integer 32767.
For example, if k = 106 , say until 104 , the elements are in increasing order and between 104 + 1 and 106 the
array contains 32767 in each location. Assume that 32767 does not appear in 1 to 104 . Your task is to find
the very first appearance of 32767 without using k as part of the computation. No statement can make use
of the value of k. Let your logic be efficient.

3. (12 + 8 marks) Given an integer, the following tasks are expected from you (i) compute the length of
the integer (ii) check whether the length is 3k for some integer k (iii) If it is 3k , check whether the input
contains 3k identical digits, i.e., if k = 1, probable inputs are 333, 555, 777 and if k = 2, the probable
inputs are 111111111, 777777777, 999999999 (iv) if yes from Step (iii), then check whether the number
is divisible by 3k . Do you get yes at Step (iv) always ? Why is this logic work ? Justify your answer
below.

Roll No: Name:

1. (7 marks) Write a C program to display ’Break fast Menu’ of Mon-Fri served in Akshaya Mess. The
details are available at institute website. Any format of display is fine.
2. (5+8=13 marks) Given a number, check whether a number is prime or composite. If it is composite,
display all its prime factors.
3. (10+5+5=20 marks) You are asked to distribute 30 balls among 5 boxes such that the box-2 contains
at least two balls, box-4 contains at least one and no constraints on other boxes. Note that other boxes
may contain ’0’ balls. The task is to display all possibilities of distributing the balls satisfying the
above constraint. Also display the count (the number of possibilities). Further, display the count (just
the count alone) using sequence statements only (no loop, no if).

Instructions:
For all questions, get your answer verified from TAs as and when it is done. For Q1, write the necessary
commands in the space given. For Q2-Q4, you are expected to write a C program and show the output to
TAs. For Q4, present the logic in the space given and no need to write logic for Q2 and Q3.
1. (1+3=4 marks) Write linux commands in the space given. Task: In the current directory (assume:
/home/iiitdm), create a directory named ’testfolder’. Create three text files, three pdf files and three
ppt files in testfolder. Create a folder named ’copyfolder’ in the current directory (/home/iiitdm).
Present a linux command for the following
(a) (2+2=4 marks) From the current directory (/home/iiitdm), copy all text files in test folder to
copyfolder. Give two different commands to accomplish this task.

(b) (2+2=4 marks) From the current directory (/home/iiitdm), move all pdf files in test folder to
copyfolder. Give two different commands to accomplish this task.

(c) (2+2=4 marks) Merge all pdf files in copyfolder. Give two different commands to accomplish this
task.

2. Accept five integers from the user. Write a C program that will output
(a) (1 mark) the sum of five integers
(b) (1 mark) the average of five integers
(c) (1 mark) the number of odd numbers

1
 (d) (1 mark) the number of negative numbers
(e) (2 marks) the number of integers ending with the digit ’7’
(f) (3 marks) the number of integers with the property that the third digit from the right is ’4’

3. (2+2+2=6 marks) Rewrite the following code using switch-case-goto (no if-else-goto). Do not write
the code here and you may key in on the system.

for(int i=0; i<=5; i=i+1)

for(int j=0; j<=2; j=j+1)
{ printf("%d %d", i,j);
if((i+j)%2==0)
printf("something");
}

4. (4 marks) Write a C program to print the following series upto 20 terms. 1 2 6 15 31 46 .... Write the
logic in the space given below and do not write the code. Key in the program on the system.
