D:Compiler Error

QUESTION: What is the output of following C program

#include<stdio.h>
struct Point
{
int x, y, z;
};

int main()
{
struct Point p1 = {.y = 0, .z = 1, .x = 2};
printf("%d %d %d", p1.x, p1.y, p1.z);
return 0;
}

A:Compiler Error
B:2 0 1
C:0 1 2
D:2 1 0

QUESTION: In the following program , both s1 and s2 would be variables of structure

type defined as below and there won't be any compilation issue.
typedef struct Student
{
int rollno;
int total;
} Student;

Student s1;
struct Student s2;

A:True
B:False

QUESTION: Pick the best statement for the below program:

#include "stdio.h"
int main()
{
 struct {int a[2];} arr[] = {{1},{2}};
printf("%d %d %d %d",arr[0].a[0],arr[0].a[1],arr[1].a[0],arr[1].a[1]);
return 0;
}

A:Compile error because arr has been defined using struct type incorrectly. First struct type
should be defined using tag and then arr should be defined using that tag.
B:Compile error because apart from definition of arr, another issue is in the initialization of
array of struct i.e. arr[].
C:No compile error and it‟ll print 1 0 2 0
D:No compile error and it‟ll print 1 2 0 0

QUESTION: Pick the best statement for the below program:

#include "stdio.h"
int main()
{
struct {int i; char c;} myVar = {.c ='A',.i = 100};
printf("%d %c",myVar.i, myVar.c);
return 0;
}

A:Compile error because struct type (containing two fields of dissimilar type i.e. an int and a
char) has been mentioned along with definition of myVar of that struct type.
B:Compile error because of incorrect syntax of initialization of myVar. Basically, member of
operator (i.e. dot .) has been used without myVar.
C:Compile error for not only B but for incorrect order of fields in myVar i.e. field c has been
initialized first and then field i has been initialized.
D:No compile error and it‟ll print 100 A.

QUESTION: Pick the best statement for the below program:

#include "stdio.h"
int main()
{
union {int i1; int i2;} myVar = {.i2 =100};
printf("%d %d",myVar.i1, myVar.i2);
return 0;
}

A:Compile error due to incorrect syntax of initialization

B:No compile error and it‟ll print “0 100”
C:No compile error and it‟ll print “100 100”.
D:None of the above

QUESTION: Presence of code like “s.t.b = 10” indicate

A:Syntax Error
B:structure
C:double data type
D:An ordinary variable name
