Question:
We would like to design and implement a programming solution
to the reader-writer problem
using semaphores in C language under UNIX.
We assume that we have three readers and two writers
processes that would run concurrently.
A writer is to update (write) into one memory location
(let’s say a variable of type integer named
temp initialized to 0). In the other hand, a reader is to
read the content of temp and display its
content on the screen in a formatted output. One writer can
access the shared data exclusively
without the presence of other writer or any reader, whereas,
a reader may access the shared
memory for reading with the presence of other readers (but
not writers).
Answer / lina wahab
1- Displays a message that declares the id of the writer
and that it starts the updating
2- Sleeps a random number of seconds between 2 and 4
seconds [2, 4].
2- Increments the content of the shared data
3- Displays a message that declares the id of the writer
and that it finishes the updating
A reader process should read the content of the shared data
and displayed it on the
screen as following:
For each access to shared data for reading:
1- Sleeps a random number of seconds between 2 and 3
seconds [2, 3].
2- displays in one line: the content of the shared data as
well as the id of itself (the reading
process).
Important notes:
1. Let each process run up to 10 iterations.
2. Your solution should ensure the non starvation of readers

In the following pgm add a stmt in the function fun such that the address of 'a' gets stored in 'j'. main(){ int * j; void fun(int **); fun(&j); } void fun(int **k) { int a =0; /* add a stmt here*/ }
main() { char string[]="Hello World"; display(string); } void display(char *string) { printf("%s",string); }
void main() { int *i = 0x400; // i points to the address 400 *i = 0; // set the value of memory location pointed by i; }
how to return a multiple value from a function?
1) int i=5; j=i++ + i++ + i++; printf("%d",j);This code gives the answer 15.But if we replace the value of the j then anser is different?why? 2)int i=5; printf("%d",i++ + i++ + i++); this givs 18.
how to concatenate the two strings
#define square(x) x*x main() { int i; i = 64/square(4); printf("%d",i); }

Write a procedure to implement highlight as a blinking operation
main() { char *p; p="Hello"; printf("%c\n",*&*p); }
void main() { printf(“sizeof (void *) = %d \n“, sizeof( void *)); printf(“sizeof (int *) = %d \n”, sizeof(int *)); printf(“sizeof (double *) = %d \n”, sizeof(double *)); printf(“sizeof(struct unknown *) = %d \n”, sizeof(struct unknown *)); }
main() { int y; scanf("%d",&y); // input given is 2000 if( (y%4==0 && y%100 != 0) || y%100 == 0 ) printf("%d is a leap year"); else printf("%d is not a leap year"); }
