main()
{
float a = 5.375;
char *p;
int i;
p=(char*)&a;
for(i=0;i<=3;i++)
printf("%02x",(unsigned char) p[i]);
}
how is the output of this program is ::
0000ac40
please let me know y this output has come

A very interesting question where u need knowledge of
Computer architecture also.... :) :) :) :)
The floating point(FP) no. are stored differently in memory
as: mantissa × 2^exponent [M× 2^E]. M is 23 bit long and E
is 8 bit. 1 bit is for sign of number. The format is :
SEEE EEEE EMMM MMMM MMMM MMMM MMMM MMMM
Now binary of 5.375 is 101.011 which can be written in
normalized form(which has single 1 before decimal point) as
1.01011 × 2^2. This 1 and point(.) is always neglected while
storing the no. in registers. so mantissa is 01011 or
010110000000000000000000 × 2^E where E is 8 bit(0 to 255).
The actual value of the exponent is calculated by
subtracting 127 from the stored value (0 to 255) giving a
range of –127 to +128.
So here we need E=2 which we can get from 129(129-127=2)
whose binary is: 10000001.
Now above format becomes:
0100 0000 1010 1100 0000 0000 0000 0000 which is 40ac0000 in
hex. So stored format is: 00->00->ac->40

Sir... please give some important coding questions asked by product companies..

In a gymnastic competition, scoring is based on the average of all scores given by the judges excluding the maximum and minimum scores. Let the user input the number of judges, after that, input the scores from the judges. Output the average score. Note: In case, more than two judges give the same score and it happens that score is the maximum or minimum then just eliminate two scores. For example, if the number of judges is 5 and all of them give 10 points each. Then the maximum and minimum score is 10. So the computation would be 10+10+10, this time. The output should be 10 because 30/3 is 10.
