Output of C++ programs | Set 37

Predict the output for the following C++ code:

Question 1




#include <iostream>
int main()
{
    if (std::cout << "hello")
        std::cout << " world";
    else
        std::cout << " else part";
  
    return 0;
}

Output: hello world
Description: Since std::cout<<"hello" returns a reference to std::cout, therefore, the condition gets true, and the if block is executed.

 

Question 2




#include <iostream>
int main()
{
    if (2)
        std::cout << "hello";
    else
        std::cout << "world";
    return 0;
}

Output: hello
Description: Since 2 is a non-zero(i.e., true), therefore, the conditions gets true and the if block is executed.

 

Question 3




#include <iostream>
int main()
{
    if (0)
        std::cout << "hello";
    else
        std::cout << "world";
    return 0;
}

Output: world

Description: Since 0 is an equivalent of false(in this problem), therefore the conditions gets false and the else block is executed.

 

Question 4




#include <iostream>
int main()
{
    if (NULL)
        std::cout << "hello";
    else
        std::cout << "world";
    return 0;
}

Output: world

Description: Since NULL is an equivalent of 0 i.e., false(in this particular problem), therefore the conditions gets false and the else block is executed.

 

Question 5




#include <iostream>
int main()
{
    int n;
  
    if (std::cin >> n) {
        std::cout << "hello";
    } else
        std::cout << "world";
    return 0;
}

Input: 100
Output: hello
Description: Since std::cin>>100 returns a reference to std::cin, therefore, the condition gets true, and the if block is executed.

Input: [nothing]
Output: world

Description: Since the input is not provided, the condition becomes false, and hence, the else block is executed.
