Consider the following C program:
void convert( int n) {
if (n < 0)
printf (“ % d”, n);
else {
convert(n / 2);
printf (“ % d”, n % 2);
}
} |
Which one of the following will happen when the function convert is called with any positive integer n as argument?
(A) It will print the binary representation of n in the reverse order and terminate.
(B) It will print the binary representation of n but will not terminate
(C) It will not print anything and will not terminate.
(D) It will print the binary representation of n and terminate.
Answer: (C)
Explanation: Since n is the integer, so it 1/2 = 0.5 = 0 will return because of integer.
0/2 = 0 will cause infinite loop because there is no terminating condition for 0.
So, option (C) is correct.
Note:
It will print the binary representation of n and terminate, only if condition “if (n
