c++

1.

Which statement initializes (allocates) a pointer to point to a memory address in

the heap?

int *p = new int;

int p = new int;
int& p = new int;
int* p;

2.

Here is a function declaration:

void goo(int* x)
{
*x = 1;
}
Suppose that a is an int* variable pointing to some integer, and *a is equal to
zero. What is printed if you cout << a; after the function call goo(a)?

0
The address of a
1
The address of x

3.

Suppose bag is a template class, what is the syntax for declaring a bag b of
doubles?

bag of doubles b;
double bag b;
bag b;
bag<double> b;

4.

Consider the following bag class:

class bag
{
public:
static const int CAPACITY = 30;
 bag( ) { used = 0; }
int erase(int& target);
bool erase_one(int& target);
void insert(int& entry);
void operator +=(bag& addend);
int size( ) const { return used; }
int count(const int& target);
private:
int data[CAPACITY]; // The array to store items
int used; // How much of array is used
};
Which steps would be necessary for changing this bag class to hold double values
instead of integers?

Change the array declaration from int data[CAPACITY] to double data[CAPACITY] and
recompile.
This is a template class, so there is no need to recompile to change the data type.
Round each double value to an integer before putting it in the bag.
Change the int to double for the array and for all return values and parameters
related to the array, then recompile.

With a single template class, we can implement a container class that can be
instantiated with a different data type for each object.

True
False

6.

When you write a template class, where does the template prefix occur? (Select all
that apply)

Before each member function implementation.

Before each object declaration.
Before the main function
Before the template class definition

7.

Consider this prototype for a template function:

template <class Item> //line 1

void foo(Item<x>); //line 2
Something is wrong with this prototype. Which line has the error?

line 1
None of the above. There are no errors in these lines.
line 2

8.

int *p1 = new int;

int *p2 = p1;
*p1 = 3;
*p2 = *p1;
cout << p1 << endl;
4
3
Unpredictable
The address of p1

9.

What is wrong with this block of code?

int *p1 = new int; //line 1

int *p2; //line 2
*p2 = 4; //line 3
p1 = p2; //line 4
cout << p1 << p2 << endl; //line 5
The p2 pointer is not instantiated with the new operator before accessing its
memory location on line 3.
A pointer assignment to set the address of a pointer cannot be done with an integer
value on line 3.
The p1 pointer is incorrectly instantiated with the new operator before accessing
its memory location on line 1. Parentheses are missing from this statement.
None of the above. There are no errors in this block of code.

int erase(int& target);
bool erase_one(int& target);
void insert(int& entry);
void operator +=(bag& addend);
int size( ) const { return used; }

What does the following code block do?

vector<int> a_list;
vector<int>::iterator iter;
iter = min_element(a_list.begin(), a_list.end());
cout << *iter << "\n";

This code block declares a vector of integers and an iterator for a vector of
integers. The iterator called iter is set to point to the first element in the
vector and that value is displayed.
This code block declares a vector of iterators. The iterator with the smallest
memory location is located and that memory location is displayed.
This code block declares a vector of integers and an iterator for a vector of
integers. The iterator called iter is set to point to the smallest element in the
vector and that element is removed.
This code block declares a vector of integers and an iterator for a vector of
integers. The iterator called iter is set to point to the smallest element in the
vector and that value is displayed.

13.

What is the delete keyword used for?

To remove a pointer address from the stack

To delete both the pointer and to deallocate the space in the heap that is pointed
to.
To deallocate the space in the heap pointed to by a pointer.
To delete the value stored in the heap pointed to by a pointer

14.

Which of the following declarations is legal (will not generate an error)?

15.

Which keyword can be used to allow a non-member function to see the private
variables of another class?

16.

Consider the following main function:

int main()
{
Time t(2, 50);
t.setHour(5);
 t.setMinute(20);
cout << "The time is " << t << endl;
}
What is necessary in the Time class to make this main function compile?

None of the above.

The Time class must have the data member t defined in the public area of the class.
The << operator must be overloaded for the Time class
A friend function called t is needed.

17.

In which of the following ways can you write an operator overload? (Select all that
apply)

in a class member function

in a nonmember function
in the main function
in a friend function

18.

p2 = p1;
cout << p1 << endl;

An error occurs

Suppose cursor is a pointer that points to a penguin node in a linked list using a
penguin class that includes a member function get_link(). You wish to move cursor
to point to the next node (to the next penguin) in the list. Which statement do you
use?

cursor++;
cursor = cursor->get_link( );
cursor = get_link();
cursor.get_link();

20.

Suppose cursor points to a penguin node in a linked list using a penguin class,
which includes functions called get_data() and get_link(). What Boolean expression
should be true when that penguin node is the ONLY node in the list?

cursor->get_data( ) == 0.0
cursor->get_data( ) == NULL
cursor->get_link( ) == NULL
cursor == NULL

21.

The following steps have been performed for deleting a node from a linked list. The
nodes have the member accessor function get_link(). The head_ptr points to the head
node of a list.
Step 1: Set up a local variable called remove_ptr and set it equal to head_ptr
Step 2: Set head_ptr equal to the head_ptr->get_link()
Step 3: Delete remove_ptr
Which of the following situations should use these steps?

To delete ALL nodes from a list

To delete a node from the front of a list
To delete a node from the end of a list
To delete a node from the middle (neither front nor end) of a list.

22.

Which operation is better for storing items in an array than storing items on a
linked list?

retrieve a copy of the item at location i.

inserting an item at the beginning (position 0).
deleting an item at the beginning (position 0).
Growing the size of the container.

23.

You are working with a node class named node. Suppose that f is a non-member
function with a prototype like this with a missing data type in the parameter list:
void f(________ head_ptr);
// Precondition: head_ptr is a head pointer for a linked list.
// Postcondition: The function f has done some computation with
// the linked list, but the list itself is unchanged.
What is the best data type for head_ptr in the parameter list of this function?

node* &

You wish to convert a container class to a template container class. Which of the
following should you consider?

Make the class visible to the client. One way to do this is to include the main
function in the header file.
Make sure operations on container data are not type specific. For example, don't
use string functions on container data.
Make implementation visible. One way to do this is to include both interface and
implementation in the header file.
Make sure all return statements that return container dataonly return container
data. If a return statement returns container data under certain conditions, but
another return statement returns something that is not container data under other
conditions, there could be a data type conflict when a different data type is used
for this template.

32.

Which of the following is a container class in the Standard Template Library?

(Select all that apply)

string
vector
sort
list

33.

Consider the following code.

string str1(3, 'a');

cout << str1 << endl;

string str2(str1);

cout << str2 << endl;

string str3("hello", 2);

cout << str3 << endl;

string str5 = "How are you?";

string str6(str5, 4, 3);

cout << str6 << endl;

Assuming that this code has the using namespace std directive and the appropriate
#include statements, what would you expect the output to be?
