28. Output of the following program?

#include<stdio.h>

Int main()

     int i=0;

     for(i=0; i<5; i++);

a)      out = 0 1 2 3 4

b)      out = 1 2 3 4 5

c)       out = 5

d)      out = 4

 
Explanation:
 
Step 1: int i = 0; here variable i is an integer type and initialized to '0'.
Step 2: for(i=0; i<5; i++); variable i=0 is already assigned in previous step. The semi-colon at the end of
this for loop tells, "there is no more statement is inside the loop".

Loop 1: here i=0, the condition in for(i=0; 0<5; i++) loop satisfies and then i is incremented by '1'(one)
Loop 2: here i=1, the condition in for(i=0; 1<5; i++) loop satisfies and then i is incremented by '1'(one)
 Loop 3: here i=2, the condition in for(i=0; 2<5; i++) loop satisfies and then i is incremented by '1'(one)
Loop 4: here i=3, the condition in for(i=0; 3<5; i++) loop satisfies and then i is increemented by '1'(one)
Loop 5: here i=4, the condition in for(i=0; 4<5; i++) loop satisfies and then i is incremented by '1'(one)
Loop 6: here i=5, the condition in for(i=0; 5<5; i++) loop fails and then i is not incremented.
Step 3: cout<<”out=”<<i; here the value of i is 5. Hence the output is '5'.
 

29. In a frequency counter, what happens at high frequencies when the sampling interval is too long?
