What is sql SQL (Structured Query Language) is a computer language used to create, retrieve, update and delete data from relational database management systems. 3)difference between C & C++? The main difference between c and c plus plus is that c is a procedure oriented language where as cpp is an object oriented language we can compile and and execute all our c programs in a cpp compiler cpp is an extintion to c. cpp was first called 'c with classes' the ++ in c++ indicates the increment operator in c meaning cpp is an advanced language compared to c the advantage of cpp lies in object oriented programing generally called oops the features of oops are classes, data abstraction, encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, exception handling, etc., 4)what are data structures? In the field of computer science, a data structure is a way of storing data in a computer so that it can be used efficiently. Often a carefully chosen data structure will allow the most efficient algorithm to be used. The choice of the data structure often begins from the choice of an abstract data structure. A well-designed data structure allows a variety of critical operations to be performed, using as few resources, both execution time and memory space, as possible. Data structures are implemented using the data types, references and operations on them provided by a programming language. Different kinds of data structures are suited to different kinds of applications, and some are highly specialized to certain tasks. For example,

B-trees are particularly well-suited for implementation of databases, while routing tables rely on networks of machines to function. 5)what do you know about dbms? database management system (DBMS) is computer software designed for the purpose of managing databases Typical examples of DBMSs include Oracle, DB2, Microsoft Access, Microsoft SQL Server, Postgres, MySQL, 4th Dimension, FileMaker and Alpha_Five. DBMSs are typically used by Database administrators in the creation of Database systems. 7) what are pointers? pointer is a programming language data type whose value refers directly to (or ?points to?) another value stored elsewhere in the computer memory using its address 9)what search engines do u use? A search engine is an information retrieval system designed to help find information stored on a computer system, such as on the World Wide Web, inside a corporate or proprietary network, or in a personal computer. The search engine allows one to ask for content meeting specific criteria (typically those containing a given word or phrase) and retrieves a list of items that match those criteria. This list is often sorted with respect to some measure of relevance of the results. Search engines use regularly updated indexes to operate quickly and efficiently. Main memory Refers to physical memory that is internal to the computer. The word main is used to distinguish it from external mass storage devices such as disk drives. Another term for main memory is RAM. The computer can manipulate only data that is in main memory. Therefore, every program you execute and every file you access must be copied from a storage device into main memory. The amount of main memory on a computer is crucial because it determines how many programs can be executed at one time and how much data can be readily available to a program. Because computers often have too little main memory to hold all the data they need, computer engineers invented a technique called swapping, in which portions of data are copied into main memory as they are needed. Swapping occurs when there is no room in memory for needed data. When one portion of data is copied into memory, an equal-sized portion is copied (swapped) out to make room. Now, most PCs come with a minimum of 32 megabytes of main memory. You can usually increase the amount of memory by inserting extra memory in the form of chips. Auxiliary memory Data storing that computer doesn?t need immediately. The most common auxiliary memory devices are tapes or disks. The data can be loaded easily to the computer?s main memory when needed.

mug this flow chart.. same flow chart came for us..it is very difficult to remember the ques.. i am sorry that i cudnt able to reproduce.. for the 3rd Section i remember few que: Section 3: 1- problem on tower of hanoi--ans 7 2 problem on fig. find the shaded area, square of size 14cm.. ans: 42 3. problem on symmetric fig ;; ans less than the 1172(check) . 4. few questions on blood relationship.. (refer r.s. agrawal reasoning) sample ques..man looking at photo tells that " the daughter of this person is the only son etc..." try to familiar on this .. 5 . again ques on relationship..; 6 persons are there A, B, C, D, E, F. i) how many male: ans -4 ii)how many female- ans 2 iii) how D related to A; - similar ques ..easy .. 6)u have the series of letters..need to find the odd one out.. tips: u identify the pattern all the choices follow the pattern except one.. eg: given words are say ..ABCD , JKLM, OPQR, UVWX, EGHI in this the last set do not follow the pattern.. in case of ABCD- all are continious. JKLM , OPQR, UVWX..follow same all are continious .. If u see the EGHI this is not continious as EFGH shud me there..got it U have 4 ques on this..easy one.. 6) u have to fill the missing letter in the series.. little bit tough.. 4 ques..but easy.. 7) u have 3 figure based on the figures ques asked.. easy one.. eg: Fig Triangle means Strong Fig Square means Tall Fig Circle means Fair. Ques asked is find the number that represents Strong Tall and Fair persons.. easy one .. So u have 3 ques on this pattern.. 8) u have ques on flow chart..easy..very simple..

Out of 30 people, 5(including me) cleared the written test. The test pattern was similar to that of previous papers(GRE/GMAT pattern). ************************************************************ *********** Part 1: (Verbal/English, 25 Q - 15 min) This was cool.

All Antonyms, Analogies got repeated from previous papers. Antonyms: 1)equanimity 2)sequester 3)apathetic 4)dislodge 5)sedate Analogies: 1)celeberate:marriage:: a. window:bedroom b. lument:barevemant c. pot:pan d. face:penalty 2)neglegent:requirement:: remises:duty cognet:argument easy:hard careful:position 3)Germ:disease:: man:women doctor:medicine war:destrustion shopkeeper:goods 4)bouquet:flower:: skin:body chain:link product:factory page:book 5)letter:word:: club:people page:book product:factory picture:paper Bottom Line: Time is sufficient. No special preparation needed (provided u r good enough) Just gaze thru previous papers' antonyms & analogies Sentence completion & fill ups are easy. Instead of mugging up antonyms, I personally recommend u to read Synonyms, so that u can easily locate their opposites. (U can refer TCS papers also if needed) ************************************************************ ************ Part 2: (Quantitative Aptitude, 45 Q - 30 min) This was tough. Repeated Q's: One monkey climbs a poll at the rate of 6mts/min and fell down 3mts in the alternately.

the area of square ABCD. (ans: 3/ Do not remember rest of the them. Bottom Line: This section makes the difference. Special preparation is mandatory. Try to solve problems of every type from R.S. Agarwal Leave complex Q's & proceed forward. ************************************************************ ************ Part 3: (Reasoning, 30 Q - 30 min) This was 50 - 50 I confidently solved around 16 of them. 1)There are 4 buses - A,B,C,D.
