Questions and Answers

What happens when the number of values initialized is more than the size of an array in C?

  • Memory locations are reserved, and the extra values are ignored
  • An error is generated during compilation (correct)
  • Compiler automatically initializes all elements to zero
  • Array size is automatically adjusted to accommodate all the values
  • When an array is partially initialized with fewer values than its size, what are the remaining elements initialized to?

  • Automatically to zero by the compiler (correct)
  • Random values from memory
  • Compiler-dependent default values
  • Values specified in the initialization
  • What happens if an array is initialized with only one element as 0 in C?

  • All elements are initialized to zero (correct)
  • Memory location for the single element is allocated
  • All other elements are initialized to 1
  • Compiler throws an error
