1
is the statement within the if construct given below executed?
Why or why not?
1 = 1;
If ( - - 1= 0)
Printf ( Executed! \ n ) ;
2
write a program to accept a string and an integer, and
print the string as many times as the value of the integer this
procedure should continue until the user presses q to quit ?
3 Explain the difference between while and do while loops with
respect to the minimum number of times the body of the loop is
executed.
4 write a program that accepts a number from 0 to 9 along with a
string to be displayed a specified number of times. Use the switch
case construct. ?
5 write a program to accept characters until q is pressed Display
each character immediately after it is accepted. Also store the
characters in an array, to be displayed before the program
terminates.
6 Explain the significance of the break statement in the switch case
construct what would result in its absence?
7 write a program that accepts 0, 1, or 2 if 0 is entered by the user,
accept the necessary parameters (radius height, etc.) to calculate
the volume of a cylinder inputs 1 and 2 correspond to cylinder and
cone, respectively. Note that the above process must go on until the
user enters q to terminate the program [Hint: use a switch case
construct within a while or do while loop]
8 when is the default keyword useful in a switch case construct?
Modify the program written for question 6 so that an error message
is displayed whenever an input other than 0, 1 or 2 is entered.
9 modify the sample programs given in this chapter by replacing a
while loop by a for loop and vice- versa?
10 write a program to generate the first hundred tems of the
Fibonacci series and print their sum and average?

11why do you think the use of the go to statement is generally

discouraged? Under what conditions are they specially useful?
12 Write a program that determines whether or not the input string
is a palindrome.
13write a program to input a string, sum up the ASCII values of all
its character, and output the resulting value. Use a single loop?
(Hint : use the getchar function to read the input character by
character and test for for the newline)
14 what is the output of the following statements:
for ( I = 0; I < 10 ; I ++);
printf ( % d / n , I );
( Hint : notice the semicolon at the end of the for construct)
15 write the output of the following statements:
for ( i = 10; i ++; i < 100)
printf ( % d / n , i );
( To understand the output better, make i an unsigned char)
16 Explain the role of the initialization, test and update expressions
in a for loop. When are each of them executed?
17 Explain the difference between a break statement and a
continue statement with examples.
18 what are the types of constants that can be used in a switch
case construct?
19 following is a while construct to input a series of numbers , and
exit the loop when the sum of the numbers entered so far is divisib
by 5.
int i, sum = 0;
write (1) /* In finite loop * /
scanf ( % d , & i );
sum + = i ;

if (sum % 5 = = 0)
break ;
}
Rewrite the statements using a do while construct. Do not use the
break statement.
Dose it make any difference if you input all numbers on a single
line separated by spaces or input them by pressing the enter key
after each number?
20A break statement is used to exit a loop or a switch case
structure. What happens if the break
Statement is used outside any such construct? Differentiate
between the break and continue statement ?
