5 - Question

In the Fortran program
M = 0
DO 100I = 1,2
DO 200J = 1,2
M = M + I + J
200 CONTINUE
100 CONTINUE
STOP
END
the value of M in the end will be
a) 10
b) 11
c) 12
d) 14

View Answer

Answer: c
Explanation: m = 0,
I = 1,
J = 1
m = m + I + J = 0 + 1 + 1 = 2
m = 2, I = 1, J = 2
m = 2 + 1 + 2 = 5
m = 5, I = 2, I = 1
m = 5 + 2 + 1 = 8
m = 8, I = 2, J = 2
m = 8 + 2 + 2 = 12




6 - Question

b) the numbered statements must be referred
c) the statements referred must be numbered
d) all statements must be referred

View Answer

Answer: c
