DBMS, DAA.

Few sample questions are given below:-

1
1. The following operations are used with a stack:

push x: add the value of x to the top of the stack; do not change x
pop x: put the top value of the stack into x, remove from the stack

After the following sequence of instructions, what are the values of a, b, c, d, and e?
integer a, b, c, d, e

a := 5; b := 10; c := 15; d := 20
push a
push b
push c

push d
pop e
pop e
pop e
pop a

a) a = 5, b = 10, c = 15, d = 20, e = 45

b) a = 5, b = 10, c = 15, d = 20, e = 10
c) a = 20, b = 10, c = 15, d = 20, e = 10
d) a = 20, b = 10, c = 15, d = 20, e = 15

2. The following example discusses structure pointers.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

struct name{
char lastname[20];
char firstname[20];
};

struct name full_name;

void display_name(struct name *p);

int main(void)
{
struct name *name_ptr;
__________________ ; -- Statement to be filled

........
}

In the above code, fill in the correct usage of the function pointer in the line ‘Statement to be
filled” from the list below.

a) name_ptr = &full_name
b) &name_ptr = full_name
c) name_ptr = &name
d) name_ptr = name

3. In the context of Access rights for Class inheritance, fill the numbers from 1 to 9 with values
‘yes’ or ‘no’

a) yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, no, yes, no, no

b) yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes, yes, no
c) no, yes, yes, no, yes, no, yes, no, yes
d) no, yes, yes, no, yes, yes, yes, yes, no

4. Consider a namespace 'name' as declared below:

namespace Name
{
int age;
}

Which of the following is valid invocation of the variable 'age' when used from within a class
C?

a) Name:age
b) Name::age
c) namespace Name::age
d) C.Name::age

5. In an exception handling section, you have multiple handlers (i.e., catch expressions), each
one with a different parameter type. However, you do not have the corresponding 'throw'
statements. What would happen?

a) The code would fail at compile time indicating an error on “Not enough Throw statements”
b) The code would fail at run-time indicating an error on “No Matching exception handler”
c) The code would work fine
d) The code would work fine, provided the „catch‟ expressions are made to return a void
pointer

6. Under which of the following circumstances, will an implicit conversion happen?

i) Between two compatible datatypes ('short' and 'int')

ii) Between two classes derived from the same base class
iii) Between any two classes have the same structural identify
iv) Between objects of two classes if the Second class has a constructor that takes an object
of first class as parameter

a) i, ii and iii
b) ii and iv
c) i and iv
d) ii and iii

7. Which of the following does a derived class not inherit from its base class?

i) constructor and its destructor

ii) operator=() members
iii) friends
iv) Pure virtual function

a) i, ii and iv
b) i, ii and iii
c) iii and iv
d) ii, iii and iv

8. Grid Computing refers to

a) Virtual computer architecture that is able to distribute process execution across a parallel
infrastructure
b) Harnessing unused processing cycles of all computers in a network for solving problems too
intensive for any stand-alone machine
c) Applying the resources of many computers in a network to a single problem at the same time
d) All of the above
