Q:

A passage is given with 5 questions following it. Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.


The quest to find life outside the solar system got a big boost with the discovery of seven Earth-size extra-solar planets, or exoplanets, orbiting a dwarf star about 40 light years away. Unlike earlier discoveries of exoplanets, all seven planets could possibly have liquid water — a key to life as we know it on Earth — with three planets having the greatest chance. This is by far the largest collection of Earth-like planets in the habitable 'Goldilocks' zone of a star — neither too close nor too far from a star, which raises the possibility of liquid water being present on the surface. Only Earth has liquid water in the solar system. Since the dwarf star is much cooler than the Sun, the dimming of light each time a planet passes or transits before the star could be easily recorded from Earth unlike in cases when planets transit a Sun-like bright star. Since the initial discovery of three planets was made using the Chile-based Transiting Planets and Planetesimals Small Telescope, the exoplanet system is called TRAPPIST-1.

 

What is the 'Goldilocks' zone?

A) It is a mythological place about stars and planets B) That place on a planet which has lowest possibility of liquid water.
C) The correct distance of a planet from its star to have possibility of having liquid water D) That place on a planet which has the right amount of sunlight
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) The correct distance of a planet from its star to have possibility of having liquid water

Q:

What would be the output of the following program?

# define SQR(x) (x * x)

main()

{

    int a, b = 3;

    a = SQR ( b + 2 );

    Printf ("\n %d ", a );

}

Answer

11


Because, on preprocessing the expression becomes  a = ( 3 + 2 * 2 + 3),  as Ist preference is multiply & then addition, it evalvates as(3+ 2 * 3 +2) = (3+6+2)=11.

Project Management - Introduction

What is a Project? What are its Characteristics?

Answer

A Project is a temporary endeavour undertaken to create a unique product, service or result.


Characteristics:


1.Temporary 


    Temporary means that every project has a definite beginning and a definite end.


2. Unique Products, Services or Results


   Uniqueness is an important characteristic of project deliverables. For example, many thousands of office buildings have been developed, but each individual facility is unique - different owner, different design, different location, different contractors, and so on.


3. Progressive Elaboration


   Progressive elaboration means developing in steps, and continuing by increments . For example, the project scope will be broadly described early in the project and made more explicit and detailed as the project team develops a better and more complete understanding of the objectives and deliverables.
