Explain srand() and rand() Functions
UncaAlby

rand() uses what is known as a "multiplicative congruential" method for generating pseudo-random numbers between 0 and 32767. (The exact maximum can be system dependent.)It will start ...

What is Link list? What is purpose of link list in programming.
Aadarsh sharma
- May 4th, 2010
Linked list is a set of array (uses 2 line array) i.e INFO (information part) and LINK (address part)we use it for storing of data dynamically i.e it does not leave buffer space (less wastage of memory)

Execute C Program
How will you execute a file from another C program through C programming without system command?
yassiguy
- May 26th, 2010
We can store a shell code in another file. The shell code will spawn the new program. We can invoke the shell code from the parent program by reading it into memory and typecast the starting address to a function pointer and then invoking it.

It can be included simply by:include "filename"only one file should contain the main() function.

End of File
What is the significance of EOF?
md.jahidanwar
- Jun 3rd, 2010
EOF is simply a macro designating a negative value. Some books are refered EOF is -1. It doesn't have to be -1. You can signal end-of-file from the command line with a control character(Ctrl ^), usually a combination of ctrl+z for Windows systems or ctrl+d for POSIX systems. Thanks, MJA

Read and Sort 30 integers into One Dimension Array

The %f conversion specifier expects its corresponding argument to be of type double, but the result of i/(*p) is type int (since both operands have type int); therefore, the behavior is undefined (per...

P is a pointer to the int variable i and *p prints the value stored in the address (of i) which it points. So answer will be 1 but data type is float so it will print 1.000000.

Difference between reference and pointer?
What is difference between reference and pointer or pass by reference and pass by pointer?
kbjarnason
- Jul 1st, 2010
Since this is posted in a C section, the main difference is that in C, pointers exist and references don't. That's C++.

Is there any advantage of using a reference variable as opposed to using a pointer. I mean pass by reference ( by using pointers ) was implemented in C. Why is this new technique of pass by reference (using reference variable ) invented for C++

Does ++p faster than p++?
kbjarnason
- Jul 1st, 2010
The correct answer is that the language does not define the performance of such operations; how they are implemented, how they are optimized and whether one is faster than the other are implementation-specific details, which may very well change, even radically, from one implementation to the next.

Memory Allocation
we say stack is allocated to the local variables ,formal arguments and return addresses of a function for manipulating function calls?but the question arises when does the stack allocation to above things take place?at compile time or run time.And by the way what about automatic memory allocation.what is it?
kbjarnason

C neither requires nor defines a stack; at most it requires, in some cases, behaviour which is stack-like, but could be provided by any number of means.As to when the allocation is done, again, this i...

Memory is allocated only during the runtime, and compiler just decides the amount of memory needed by each variable... It just adds the displacement value to be added to the Base Stack pointer for "Local Variables" Allocation.
