Part ATrue or False 20: Answer all the questions.
If the statement is true, write a T without explanation.
However, if the statement is false, indicate it with an F and you have to EXPLAIN WHY it is false.Only 1 will be given to those correct answers without explanation.
In C, a character is stored in one byte of storage space.
After you compile a source program, which is a .cpp file, you will get an executable .exe file.
C considers the variables mark and MARK to be identical.
The default case should always be added to the switch selection statement.
A variable that is known only within the function to which it is defined is called a global variable.
The arithmetic operators , , ,andall have the same level of precedence.
When it is not known in advance how many times a set of statements will be repeated, no value can be used to terminate the repetition.
The word right will justify the output to the righthand side on the console.
The largest integer value that you can store in a data type short int or simply short is 32767.
From the two statements: char cha; coutch;you will get the output b.
Part BMultiple Choice 30: Choose the best answer for each question.
What is the major source of runtime errors?
Code incorrectly compiled.
Bad hardware.
User incorrectly specified requirements.
Assuming the program is doing what it is supposed to do.
The proper approach to debugging code involves the following EXCEPT .
using debugging tools available in your development system.
modifying the code to try and make the error vanish.
adding output statements to show which clause was executed.
adding output statements where data has been changed.
The following are all examples of what type of error?
incorrectly implemented algorithm
used a variable before assigning a value to it
swapped two parameters of the same type on a function call
forgot to designate the output parameter of a function as a reference parameter
runtime error
compile error
logical error
system error
The signature of a function consists of .
parameter list
function name
function name and parameter list
return type, function name, and parameter list

D.cdef
What do the following statements do?
ifstream stream;
stream.openscores.txt;
A.Open a file for input.
B.Open a file for output, the statement fails if the file already exists.
C.Open a file for output, the contents of the file is destroyed if the file already exists.
D.Open a file for input, the statement fails if the file does not exist.

count100 is always true at Point B
count100 is always true at Point C
If a max function is used to find the max of two integers, if you want to use the same function to find the max of two floating point number, such methodology is called:
Overwriting
Overloading
Overriding
Inline
The variables that are declared outside all functions and are accessible to all functions in its scope are called:
Static variables
Dynamic variables
Local variables
Global variables
