Switch case questions in c
C programming switch case questions and answers
with explanation
1.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include
<stdio.h>
void
main(){
int
check=2;
switch
(check){
case
1: printf(
"D.W.Steyn"
);
case
2: printf(
" M.G.Johnson"
);
case
3: printf(
" Mohammad Asif"
);
default
: printf(
" M.Muralidaran"
);
}
}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
M.G.Johnson
(B)
M.Muralidaran
(C)
M.G.Johnson Mohammad Asif M.Muralidaran
(D)
Compilation error
(E)
None of the above
Explanation:
If we will not use break keyword in each case the program control will come in each case after the case witch satisfy the switch condition.
2.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include
<stdio.h>
void
main(){
int
movie=1;
switch
(movie<<2+movie){
default
:printf(
"3 Idiots"
);
case
4: printf(
" Ghajini"
);
case
5: printf(
" Krrish"
);
case
8: printf(
" Race"
);
}
}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
3 Idiots Ghajini Krrish Race
(B)
Race
(C)
Krrish
(D)
Ghajini Krrish Race
(E)
Compilation error
Explanation:
We can write case statement in any order including the default case. That default case may be first case, last case or in between the any case in the switch case statement.
3.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include
<stdio.h>
#define
L 10
void
main(){
auto
money=10;
switch
(money,money*2){
case
L: printf(
"Willian"
);
break
;
case
L*2:printf(
"Warren"
);
break
;
case
L*3:printf(
"Carlos"
);
break
;
default
: printf(
"Lawrence"
);
case
L*4:printf(
"Inqvar"
);
break
;
}
}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
Willian
(B)
Warren
(C)
Lawrence Inqvar
(D)
Compilation error: Misplaced default
(E)
None of the above
Explanation:
In c comma is also operator which enjoy least precedence. So if
x = (a , b);
Then x = b
Note: Case expression can be macro constant.
4.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include

Paul Giamatti
(C)
Donald Shuterland
(D)
Johnny Depp
(E)
Compilation error
Explanation:
Default value of enum constant
GaryOldman = -2 +1 = -1
And default value of enum constant
EdNorton = -1 + 1 = 0
Note: Case expression can be enum constant.
6.

Compilation error
Explanation:
Consider on the expression:
*(1+"AB" "CD"+1)
= *(2+"AB" "CD")
= *(2+"ABCD")
=*("CD")
='C'
Note: Case expression can be character constant.
7.

8.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include
<stdio.h>
void
main(){
switch
(5||2|1){
case
3&2:printf(
"Anatomy of a Murder"
);
break
;
case
-~11:printf(
"Planet of Apes"

}
}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
Anatomy of a Murder
(B)
Planet of Apes
(C)
The conversation
(D)
Shaun of the Dead
(E)
Compilation error
Explanation:
Consider on the expression:
5||2|1
=5|| (2|1) //Bitwise or has higher precedence
=5||3
=1
Now, value of each case expression:
3&2 = 2
-~11 = -(-12) =12
6-3<<2 = 3 <<2 = 12
5>=5 = 1
case -~11 and case 6-3<<2 have same constant expression i.e. case 12
In c duplicate case is not possible.
9.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include
<stdio.h>
void
main(){
switch
(6){
case
6.0f:printf(
"Sangakkara"
);
break
;
case
6.0: printf(
"Sehwag"
);
break
;
case
6.0L:printf(
"Steyn"
);
break
;

: printf(
"Smith"
);
}
}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
Sangakkara
(B)
Sehwag
(C)
Steyn
(D)
Smith
(E)
Compilation error
Explanation:
Case expression must be integral constant expression. If it is not integer then it is automatically type casted into integer value.
so. (int)6.0f = 6
(int)6.0 = 6
(int)6.0L = 6
In c duplicate case is not possible.
10.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include
<stdio.h>
void
main(){
switch
(0X0){
case
NULL:printf(
"Thierry Henry"
);
break
;
case
'\0'
:printf(
"Steven Gerrend"
);
break
;
case
0: printf(
"Kaka"
);
break
;
default
: printf(
"Michael Ballack"
);
}
}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
Thierry Henry
(B)
Steven Gerrend
(C)
Kaka
(D)
Michael Ballack
(E)
Compilation error
Explanation:
Macro constant NULL has be defined as 0 in stdio.h
ASCII value of character constant '\0' is 0
As we duplicate case is not possible in c.
11.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include
<stdio.h>
void
main(){
switch
(5/2*6+3.0){
case
3:printf(
"David Beckham"
);
break
;
case
15:printf(
"Ronaldinho"
);
break
;
case
0:printf(
"Lionel Messi"
);
break
;
default
:printf(
"Ronaldo"
);
}
}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
David Beckham
(B)
Ronaldinho
(C)
Lionel Messi
(D)
Ronaldo
(E)
Compilation error
Explanation:
Consider on the expression:
5/2*6+3.0
=2*6+3.0
=12 + 3.0
=15.0
In c switch expression must return an integer value. It cannot be float, double or long double
12.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include
<stdio.h>
void
main(){
unsigned
char
c=280;
switch
(c){
printf(
"Start\t"
);
case
280:printf(
"David Beckham\t"
);
case
24: printf(
"Ronaldinho\t"
);
default
: printf(
"Ronaldo\t"
);
printf(
"End"
);
}
}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
Start David Beckham Ronaldinho Ronaldo End
(B)
Start David Beckham Ronaldinho Ronaldo
(C)
Start Ronaldinho Ronaldo End
(D)
Ronaldinho Ronaldo End
(E)
Compilation error
Explanation:
280 is beyond the range of unsigned char. Its corresponding cyclic value is: 24
In c switch case statement program control always move from the case which satisfy the switch condition and end with either break keyword, terminating} or any null character which will come first.
13.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include
<stdio.h>
#define
TRUE 1
void
main(){
switch
(TRUE){
printf(
"cquestionbank.blogspot.com"
);
}
}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
cquestionbank.blogspot.com
(B)
It will print nothing
(C)
Runtime error
(D)
Compilation error
(E)
None of the above
Explanation:
In c it is possible a switch case statement without any case but it is meaning less.
14.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include
<stdio.h>
void
main(){
static
int
i;
int
j=1;
int
arr[5]={1,2,3,4};
switch
(arr[j]){
case
1: i++;
break
;
case
2: i+=2;j=3;
continue
;
case
3: i%=2;j=4;
continue
;
default
: --i;
}
printf(
"%d"
,i);
}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
0
(B)
1
(C)
2
(D)
Compilation error
(E)
None of the above
Explanation:
We cannot use continue keyword in switch case. It is part loop.
15.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include
<stdio.h>
void
main(){
static
int
i;
int
j;
for
(j=0;j<=5;j+=2)
switch
(j){
case
1: i++;
break
;
case
2: i+=2;
case
4: i%=2;j=-1;
continue
;
default
: --i;
continue
;
}
printf(
"%d"
,i);
}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
0
(B)
1
(C)
2
(D)
Compilation error
(E)
None of the above
Explanation:
In first iteration of for loop:
j = 0
So, control will come to default,
i = -1
Due to continue keyword program control will move to beginning of for loop
In second iteration of for loop:
j =2
So, control will come to case 2,
i+=2
i = i+2 = -1 +2 =1
Then come to case 4,
i%=2
i = i%2 = 1%2 = 1
j= -1
Due to continue keyword program control will move to beginning of for loop
In third iteration of for loop:
j = -1 +2 =1
So, control will come to case 1
i = 2
In the fourth iteration of for loop:
j = 1+ 2 =3
So, control will come to default,
so i = 1
In the fifth iteration of for loop:
j = 3 + 2 =5
So, control will come to default,
so i = 0
In the sixth iteration of for loop:
j = 5 + 2 =7
Since loop condition is false. So control will come out of the for loop.
16.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include

}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
8
(B)
11
(C)
10
(D)
Compilation error

We can not declare any variable in any case of switch case statement.
20.
What will be output when you will execute following c code?
#include
<stdio.h>
void
main(){
int
a=3,b=2;
a=a==b==0;
switch
(1){
a=a+10;
}
sizeof
(a++);
printf(
"%d"
,a);
}
Choose all that apply:
(A)
10
(B)
11
(C)
12
(D)
1
(E)
Compilation error
Explanation:
Consider on the expression:
a=a==b==0;
a=(a==b)==0; //Since associate is right to left
a =(3==2)==0
a=0==0
a=1
switch case will not affect the value of variable a.
Also sizeof operator doesn't affect the value of the any variable
