What will be the output of the program (in Turbo C)?


#include<stdio.h>
int fun(int *f)
{
*f = 10;
return 0;
}
int main()
{
const int arr[5] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
printf("Before modification arr[3] = %d", arr[3]);
fun(&arr[3]);
printf("\nAfter modification arr[3] = %d", arr[3]);
return 0;
}
A. Before modification arr[3] = 4
After modification arr[3] = 10
B. Error: cannot convert parameter 1 from const int * to int *
C. Error: Invalid parameter
D. Before modification arr[3] = 4
After modification arr[3] = 4
Options:
A .  10
B .  11
C .  No output
D .  Error: ++needs a value
Answer: Option D

Answer: Option A

Step 1: const int arr[5] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; The constant variable arr is declared as an integer array and initialized to

arr[0] = 1, arr[1] = 2, arr[2] = 3, arr[3] = 4, arr[4] = 5

Step 2: printf("Before modification arr[3] = %d", arr[3]); It prints the value of arr[3] (ie. 4).

Step 3: fun(&arr[3]); The memory location of the arr[3] is passed to fun() and arr[3]value is modified to 10.

A const variable can be indirectly modified by a pointer.

Step 4: printf("After modification arr[3] = %d", arr[3]); It prints the value of arr[3] (ie. 10).

Hence the output of the program is

Before modification arr[3] = 4

After modification arr[3] = 10
