Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of the main function in a C program?

The main function serves as the entry point for the program where execution begins.

What does the following code snippet do: print("Hello");?

It prints the string 'Hello' to the standard output.

How is an array of integers initialized in C with specific values?

An array can be initialized using syntax like int nights[] = {7, 8, 6, 7, 8};

What is the result of declaring an array as int nights[5];?

<p>It creates an array named <code>nights</code> that can hold 5 integer values.</p> Signup and view all the answers

How can you create an array where each value is double the previous integer, starting with 1?

<p>You can declare it as <code>int array[10];</code> and use a loop to set <code>array[i] = array[i-1] * 2;</code>.</p> Signup and view all the answers

Study Notes

Compilation

  • Basic C code structure illustrated with a simple program: int main(void) { print("Hello"); }
  • Assembly code representation begins with the main function, showcasing function prologue with stack manipulation.
  • The binary representation of the program illustrates how data is stored in memory.

Arrays

  • Concept of arrays introduced, visualized with characters and their corresponding memory addresses.
  • Example array: letters 'H', 'E', 'L', 'L', 'O' mapping each character to an index value.
  • Array values can be structured as integers, demonstrating indexing and storage (e.g., int nights[] = {7, 8, 6, 7, 8};).

Doubling Up Challenge

  • A problem set assignment to create an integer array where each element is double the previous one, starting from 1.
  • Encourages practice with arrays by requiring printing of each integer sequentially.
