Q2. Write a program which defines three variables of type double which store three different values including decimal points, using set precision manipulators to print all these values with different numbers of digits after the decimal number.(5)

Answer: #include #include int main ()

double x1 = 12345624.72345 double x2 = 987654.12345 double x3 = 1985.23456 cout << setprecision (3) << x1<< endl; cout << setprecision (4) << x2 << endl; cout << setprecision (5) << x3<< endl; return 0;

Q3. Define static variable also explain life time of static variable? (3)

Answer: Static variable means maintaining the state of a variable. It exists and lives around even when we are outside the function. It is created and initialized only once during the lifetime of the program and therefore it will be destroyed or taken out of memory only once during the lifetime of the program.

Answer: Run-Time Errors rules Example: Accessing a non-existent variable, property, method, object, etc (e.g. a method name is misspelled)

  • Sources of these can be determined by a careful
  • reading of the code, but unfortunately, not

always

Q10. How many types of templates?

Answer: There are two different types of templates in C++ language i.e.’ function templates and class templates.

Q11. What will be the output of following function if we call this function by passing int 5? template T reciprocal(T x) {return (1/x); }

Answer: The output will zero as 1/5 and its .05 but conversion to int make it zero Above is prototype of template class so assume passing an int and returning an int

Q12. Identify the errors in the following member operator function and also correct them. math * operator(math m);

math * operator (math m)

math temp;

return number;

Answer: The errors are in the arguments of the member operation function and also in the body of operator member function. Correct function should be math *operator(math *m); math *operator (math *m)

math temp; temp = m;
