Internal Assessment Marks:30(20(T)+10(P)) End Term Exam Marks: 70(50(T)+20(P))

Examiner will set a total of nine questions. Out of which first question will be compulsory. Remaining eight questions will be set from four unit selecting two questions from each unit. Examination will be of three-hour duration. All questions will carry equal marks. First question will comprise of short answer type questions covering entire syllabus.

Candidate will have to attempt five questions in all, selecting one question from each unit. First

Practicum will be evaluated by an external and an internal examiner. Examination will be of three-hour duration.

Input/output: Formatted I/O Function-, Input Functions viz. scanf(), getch(), getche(), getchar(), gets(),

output functions viz. printf(), putch(), putchar(), puts().

Type Casting and Conversion. Decision making with if statement, if- else statement, nested if statement, else-if ladder, switch and break statement, goto statement, Looping Statements: for, while, and do- while loop, jumps in loops.

Functions: definition, prototype, function call, passing arguments to a function: call by value; call by reference, recursive functions.

Strings: Declaration and Initialization, String I/O, Array of Strings, String Manipulation Functions: String Length, Copy, Compare, Concatenate etc., Search for a Substring.

User defined data types: Structures – Definition, Advantages of Structure, declaring structure variables, accessing structure members, Structure members initialization, Array of Structures; Unions – Union definition; difference between Structure and Union.
