Question

State the output for the following:
i. x = (a>b)? a : b; if a = 2, b = 5
ii. x *= y + 5; if x = 2 , y = 2

Answer 1

Explanation:

Operators in C

Operators are symbol which tells the compiler to perform certain operations on variables. For example, (*) is an operator which is used for multiplying two numbers.

There are different types of operators in C. Let's take a look at each type of them with few examples of each.

Arithmetic Operators

Relational Operators

Increment and Decrement Operators

Logical Operators

Assignment Operators

Answer 2

Required Answer:-

Question 1:

Given that,

→ a = 2 and b = 5

Calculating x...,

→ x = (a > b) ? a : b

→ a > b = 2 > 5

→ a > b = false

→ Therefore, the result of the given expression is false.

So,

→ x = b

→ x = 5

→ Hence, the value of x is 5.

Answer:

• x = 5

Question 2:

Given that,

→ x = 2 and y = 2

Calculating x...,

→ x *= y + 5

→ x *= 2 + 5

→ x *= 7

This means,

→ x = x * 7

→ x = 2 * 7

→ x = 14

→ Hence, the value of x is 14.

Answer:

• x = 14.
