return 0;
}

(A) 5
(B) **
(C) **
(D) Compilation error
(E) None of these

Explanation:
Invalid variable name. goto is keyword in c. variable
name cannot be any keyword of c language.

2.
What will be output of the following c program?

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
long int 1a=5l;
printf("%ld",1a);
return 0;
}

(A) 5
(B) 51
(C) 6
(D) Compilation error
(E) None of these

Explanation:
Invalid variable name. Variable name must star from
either alphabet or underscore.

3.
What will be output of the following c program?

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
int _=5;
int __=10;
int ___;
___=_+__;
printf("%i",___);
return 0;
}

(A) 5
(B) 10
(C) 15
(D) Compilation error
(E) None of these
Explanation:
Variable name can have only underscore.

4.
What will be output of the following c program?

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
int max-val=100;
int min-val=10;
int avg-val;
avg-val = max-val + min-val / 2;
printf("%d",avg-val);
return 0;
}

(A) 55
(B) 105
(C) 60
(D) Compilation error
(E) None of these

Explanation:
We cannot use special character in the variable name.

5.
What will be output of the following c program?

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
int class=150;
int public=25;
int private=30;
class = class >> private - public;
printf("%d",class);
return 0;
}

(A) 1
(B) 2
(C) 4
(D) Compilation error
(E) None of these

Explanation:
Variable name can be keyword of c++.

6.
What will be output of the following c program?

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
int abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz123456789=10;
int abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz123456=40;
printf("%d",abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz123456);
return 0;
}

(A) 10
(B) 40
(C) 50
(D) Compilation error
(E) None of these
Explanation:
Only first 32 characters are significant in variable
name. So compiler will show error: Multiple declaration
of identifier abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz123456.

7.
What will be output of the following c program?

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
register xyz_123=91;
auto pqr_123=991;
const _1a1_=pqr_123+~xyz_123;
printf("%d",_1a1_);
return 0;
}

(A) 900
(B) 999
(C) 899
(D) Compilation error
(E) None of these

Explanation:
Variable name can have digits.

8.
What will be output of the following c program?

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
int __SMALL__ = 11;
int y;
y= __SMALL__ < 5;
printf("%d",y);
return 0;
}

(A) 11
(B) 5
(C) 0
(D) Compilation error
(E) None of these

Explanation:
Variable name cannot be global identifier.

9.
What will be output of the following c program?

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
int __BIG__ = 32;
int y;
y= __BIG__ && 8;
printf("%d",y);
return 0;
}

(A) 32
(B) 8
(C) 1
(D) Compilation error
(E) None of these
Explanation:
Variable name can be in the format: __NAME__. But it is
bad practice since this format is used for global
identifiers.
