Chapter-7: Viva-Voce Questions (30-50 Questions)

Q1. What is # ?
Ans. # is a preprocessor directive.
Q2. What are header files?
Ans. Header files contain the definition of built-in functions.
Q3. What are the examples of header files?
Ans. iostream (input/output stream) and conio (console input/output).
Q4. What is the extension of header files?

Department of CS/IT
Ans. .h
Q5. conio header file contains the definition of which functions?
Ans. getch() it is used to get a char, until you press the character the output screen is shown and
clrscr() it is used to clear the entire previous outputs/clear screen.
Q6. iostream header file contains the definition of which functions?
Ans. cout() it is used to display the contents and cin()- it is used to read the content or to take input.
Q7. What is the extension of C++ program?
Ans. .cpp
Q8. What is C++?
Ans. It is an object oriented programming language
Q9. Who developed C++?
Ans. Barjarne Stroustrups in 1980s at AT & Ts Bell Laboratories.
Q10. Previously, how C++ was known?
Ans. C with classes, the idea of C++ comes from the increment operator of C language.

Q11. What is OOPs?

Ans. The object oriented programming has main emphasis on object rather than procedure. It follows
bottom- up approach.
Q12. What do you understand about bottom up approach?
Ans. The main function is in bottom i.e. after class declaration, therefore, the execution of the
program must be from bottom.
Q13. What is POP?
Ans. The procedure oriented programming has emphasis on procedure. It follows top-down approach.
Q14. What is top-down approach?
Ans. The main function is declared on the top of the program, therefore, the execution of the program
must be from top.

Department of CS/IT
Q15. What is the difference between OOPs and POP?
Ans. Refer Q13. & Q14.
Q16. Which symbol is used to terminate the line of the program?
Ans. Semi-colon (;)
Q17. Which operator is used for new line?
Ans. endl operator.
Q18. What are the concepts of OOPs?
Ans. Class, object, polymorphism, inheritance, data encapsulation and data abstraction, message
passing.
Q19. Explain all the concepts.
Ans. Class A class contains the group of similar type of objects.
Object A real world entity
Polymorphism poly means many, morphism means function/forms therefore,
polymorphism means more than one forms.
Inheritance it means the new class may acquire the properties of the existing class, it
provides the idea of reusability.
Encapsulation the wrapping up of a data and function into a single unit called class.
Abstraction the act of representing essential features without including background details.
Message passing the message is sent between different function calls.
Q20. What are the basic datatypes in C++?
Ans. Char 1 byte, int -2 bytes, float- 4 bytes, double 8 bytes.
Q21. What are the decision making statements?
Ans. if, if-else, switch.
Q22. Which are the different types of loops are there?
Ans. for, do, do-while.

Department of CS/IT
Q23. What are the access specifiers or visibility modes ?
Ans. There are three types of access specifiers.
private- data and functions must be accessible to its base class.
protected data and functions must be accessible to base class and child class
public data and functions must be accessible to all the classes.
Q24. What are keywords ?
Ans. Keywords are reserved words.
Q25. What is the difference between constant and variables ?
Ans. Constant values remain static while variable values keeps on changing throughout the program.
Q26. Why is main() special ?
Ans. In C++ program the execution of a program starts and ends at main().

Q27. What is the difference between call by value and call by reference ?
Ans. In call by value, the called function creates its own copies of the original values sent to it.
In call by reference, the called function accesses and works with the original values using their
references(addresses).
Q28. What are actual parameters ?
Ans. The variables and values passed to a function.
Q29. What are formal parameters?
Ans. The variables that receive the incoming values in a function.
Q30. What is Array ?
Ans. It is a continous memory location referred by a common name .
Q31.What is scope ?
Ans. The program area inside which a variable or a function can be used.

Department of CS/IT
Q32. What is the name of :: symbol used in program ?
Ans. Scope resolution operator.
Q33. What is constructor ?
Ans. A member function having the same name as its class. It initializes class objects with legal initial
values.
Q34. What is copy constructor?
Ans. A constructor that initializes an object with the data values of another object.
Q35. Which constructor is called default constructor ?
Ans. A constructor that takes no arguments.
Q36. What is destructor ?
Ans. A member function having the same name as its class but preceded by tilde sign (~). It
deinitializes an object before it goes out of scope or simply , to destroy the object created by
constructor.
Q37. What is function overloading?
Ans. Giving several definitions to a single function name that are differentiable by the number or
types of their arguments.
Q38. What is operator overloading ?
Ans. To give the special meaning to an operator.
Q39. What is base class?
Ans. A class from which another class inherits (also called super class).
Q40. What is derived class?
Ans. A class inheriting properties from another class (also called sub class).
Q41. What is SQL ?
Ans. Structured Query Language- A language that creates and operates on relational database.
Q42. What is the difference between DDL and DML ?
Ans. Data Definition Language provides commands for defining relation schemes, deleting relations.

Department of CS/IT
Data manipulation Language includes a query language to insert , update, delete and modify
tuples in the database.
Q43. What is an operating system ?
Ans. An interface between computer and user. Eg. Windows, linux, unix, vista etc.
Q44. What is computer ?
Ans. An electronic device capable of performing variety of operations in accordance with programs.
Q45. What is program ?
Ans. A set of instruction given to computer.
Q46. What is hardware ?
Ans. Physical and tangible components of the computer.
Q47. What is software ?
Ans. Set of programs that govern the operation of a computer system.
Q48. What is an input devices?
Ans. An input devices is any hardware component used to enter data, programs, commands, and user
responses into a computer. e.g. Keyboard, mouse, lightpen , touch screen , joystick , microphone etc.
Q49. What is an output devices?
Ans. An output devices produce output of the machine in human readable form. Eg. Printer, moniter,
speakers, plotter etc.
Q50. What are the units of memory ?
Ans. 8 bits = 1byte.
1024 bytes = 1 kilobyte (KB)
1024 kilobytes = 1 megabyte (MB)
1024 megabytes = 1 gigabyte (GB)
1024 gigabytes = 1 terabyte (TB)
1024 terabytes = 1 petabyte (PB)
