Output of C Programs | Set 15 Last Updated : 16 Sep, 2024 Comments Improve Suggest changes 54 Likes Like Report Predict the output of below C programs. Question 1 C #include<stdio.h> int main(void) { int a = 1; int b = 0; b = ++a + ++a; printf("%d %d",a,b); getchar(); return 0; } Output: 3 6Explanation: ++ has precedence over + and operates right to left. Hence rightmost ++a gives a=2 and the ++a left of it gives a=3. Now, while evaluating, b=3+3. As after the second ++a, we have a=3. Hence b=3+3=6 and a=3. Hence the output.Question 2 C #include<stdio.h> int main() { int a[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}; int *ptr = (int*)(&a+1); printf("%d ", *(ptr-1) ); getchar(); return 0; } Output: 6 &a is address of the whole array a[]. If we add 1 to &a, we get "base address of a[] + sizeof(a)". And this value is typecasted to int *. So ptr - 1 points to last element of a[] Please write comments if you find any of the answers/explanations incorrect, or you want to share more information about the topics discussed above.
