Q:

We want to round off x, a Float to an Int value. The correct way to do so would be

A) Y = ( int ) ( x + 0.5 ) ; B) Y = int ( x + 0.5) ;
C) Y = ( int ) x + 0.5; D) Y = ( int ) ( ( int ) x + 0.5 )
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Y = ( int ) ( x + 0.5 ) ;

Explanation:

Rounding off a value means replacing it by a nearest value that is approximately equal or smaller or greater to the given number.

 

y = (int)(x + 0.5); here x is any float value. To roundoff, we have to typecast the value of x by using (int)

 

Example:

 

#include

 

int main ()

 

{

 

  float x = 2.6;

 

  int y = (int)(x + 0.5);

 

  printf ("Result = %d\n", y );

 

  return 0;

 

}

 

Result : 3

A) 155 degrees B) 175 degrees
C) 205 degrees D) 215 degrees
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 215 degrees

Explanation:

The total angle traced by the hour hand is the angle traced in 7 hours and 10 minutes.
We know that the angle traced by the hour hand in one hour is 30º and in one minute is 1/2º.
Therefore, (30º x 7) + (10 x 1/2º) = 215º is the angle traced by the hour hand.

Anything that interferes with productivity is waste and,therefore, the enemy under JIT systems. Techniques that support JIT philosophy include reducing inbound inventory by creating supplier delivery schedules, minimizing outbound stock with customer delivery schedules and constant work in-house reducing scrap material and wasted man-hours.
