Question 2
Consider the following C program.
#include < stdio.h >
struct Ournode{
char x,y,z;
};
int main(){
struct Ournode p = {'1', '0','a'+2};  
struct Ournode *q = &p;
printf("%c,%c",*((char*)q+1),*((char*)q+2));
return 0;
}  
The output of this program is:
A
0, c
B
0, a+2
C
'0', 'a+2'
D
'0', 'c'

Question 3
A queue is implemented using a non-circular singly linked list. The queue has a head pointer and a tail pointer, as shown in the figure. Let n denote the number of nodes in the queue. Let enqueue be implemented by inserting a new node at the head, and dequeue be implemented by deletion of a node from the tail.

Which one of the following is the time complexity of the most time-efficient implementation of enqueue and dequeue, respectively, for this data structure?
A
\Theta (1), \Theta (1)
B
\Theta (1), \Theta (n)
C
\Theta (n), \Theta (1)
D
\Theta (n), \Theta (n)

Question 4
Let \bigoplus and \bigodot denote the Exclusive OR and Exclusive NOR operations, respectively. Which one of the following is NOT CORRECT?
A
\overline{P \bigoplus Q}=P\bigodot Q
B
\overline{P} \bigoplus Q=P\bigodot Q
C
\overline{P} \bigoplus \overline{Q}=P\bigoplus Q
D
(P \bigoplus \overline{P})\bigoplus Q=(P\bigodot\overline{P})\bigodot \overline{Q}
