So here Iam giving flow chart answersin sequence. These answers are
perfectly in sequence,donot worry, youcan keep these answers blindly.
There are 7 flow charts we know only 6 flow charts answers.
Donot thinkabout these answers are correct or not , these are 100%
correct. We tested here.
1. D B A E C
2. D E C E C
3. C B D B D
4. D B D C B
5. C E A D E
6. B C D A D
Model :
Section 1 synonyms :
section 2 numerical ability : 26questions 8min
section 3 letter series : 26 questions 10min
section 4 reasoning type : 14 questions 20min
setion 5 flow charts : 7 questions 35min
Each sectionis having separate time. I could not complete letter series,
numerical ability questions in time. Flow chartssection i kept within 5
min afterwards I cam back. If they see I will fuck you. So be care.
Group discussion topics:
1. Brain drain: i.e. related to why immigration to U.S; I opposed
partially and supported partially
2. Electronic media effect; Internet, TV ,Email multimedia
G.D they won't eliminate so many people. but you have participate
with enthusiasm.You talk something. Interview as usual, stereoscopic
questions.like TCS.
Tata Infotech test has following sections
section 1) One section is of synonyms. These are 50 in all. They are very
difficult.
section 2) One section is on quantitative. i.e simple addtion,
subtraction, division etc.
section 3) Here you will be given a letter series and you have to find the
next correct letter
e.g a c f j .?. ans= o
there are around 20 to 25 such questons
section 4) Flowchart analysis.
There are around 5 big questions in this section with 4 to 5
subquestions.
In these questions
1. first you will be explained the problem.
2. Then a flowchart is drawn.
3. Flowchart is not complete and question marks are placed at few
locations. You have to find out what is the correct caption for
question mark from the choices given
e.g
-----------
|heat |
|water |
-----------
|
|
/ \
/ \ yes
\ ? /------------
\ / |
|no ---------
| |
---------
Then you have to decide what should be the correct entry in diamond box.
ie temp > 80
temp <>
In one such question they explain working of some chemical system with
differnt condition of pressure, temp etc and what are the actions tobe
taken. Then a flowchart is drawn with few squares or diamonds blank.
Out of given chices choose correct one.
One question is of finding a defective ball. i.e you have three pairs of
balls. one pair of yellow on pair of blue and one pair of some other
color. Then weighing two pairs at a time and finally separating a pair
with defective ball.
CV paper that is given to us on 21st Aug 1997. (IIT M)

8) Zulus always speak truth and hulus always speak lies.There are three persons A,B,and C. A met B and says "Iam zulu or iam hutus. We don't know what he exactly said then B meets C and says to C that A is a Zulu .Then C replies " No ,A is a hutu.
q) How many zulus are there? (ans 2)
who must be a Zulu ? and B (check)
A father F has 5 sons p,q,r,s,t Not necessarily in this order. Two are of the same age The eldest and youngest cannot be twins. T is elder to r and younger to q and s has three older brothers
q 1) who are twins
2) who is the oldest and youngest
3)who is the one having equal number of youngers and elders
8) There are 7 people who take a test among which M is worst. R is disqualified , P and S abtain same marks , T scores less than S and Q scores less than P , N scores higher than every one.
N P S T Q R M ( may be correct it)
and some questions will come on this
UNIX & C
unix commands:-
fork,
tar,
chmod,
yacc,
find,
compress,
make
C:-know about
calloc,
exit(),
pointer and arrays,
pointer to functions(5 th
chapter in K & R c book.(pointer fn. arguments thro'pointer)
some protype functions like swap,sinfunction in math.h
NOTE: Above paper we get before our test. They given all above quetions
and some of missing we are writing below. If any repeated skip that.
-pointer arithmatic
-what is the value of "i"?
i=Strlen("BLUE") + strlen ("purple")/strlen("red")-strlen("green")
ans:-1
i=2
printf("%ld%ld2%ld",i,i++,i--,i++);
answer check care fully may be 2223
what is the output of the following statements(string)
printf("what is /0 the output"):
ans.what is
3) some problem appears like this
main()
{
int i,a[10];
int *x
i = &a[6] - a;
printf("%d", i)
;
}
answers are given as 1 , 6 , not compiled , machine dependent
answer is 6;
4)
another program apperas like this
main()
{
int *x , y=2;
int * fun(int* );
x = (int *) malloc(sizeof(int));
fun(x,&y);
printf("%d%d",x,y);
}
int* fun(int *a, int *b)
{
*a = (*b)++;
return;
}
Program exactly i doesn,t know but the stress is on *a = (*b)++
but for me answers are not tallied i think the answer now is 2,3;
but in answers it is not given;
5)
another programme
struct pt
{ int x;
int y; }
struct
{ pt ptr;
int xtr}lt,*lptr=<
he will give some accessing methods of data
but the correctone is
lptr->ptr.x;
7)some problem is there which says some jumps but the correct one is
setjump and longjump
you study the jumps and clarify it;
8)
ne problem like this
c prototype for math function
ans is external double sin(double);
8) one problem on variables apperars answer is "file" dam shure
that is actually the scope of external static variabl;
9) child procees-> fork ( this is given in c programmes)
10) for parsing another problem ans is lex and yacc;
11) for backups and archieves ans is tar;
12) onebit on redirection of std error
ans may be $command >outfile 2>&1 check it;
13)
what is
int* p(char (*s)[]);
ans there is c you read it from schaum series;
14) what for chmod 654
rw-rw-r-- check it
one small c programme that appears like this
main()
{ char *s = "hellow"
char *m = " how are you";
strcat(s,m);
pritnf("%s",s) ;
}
do this and note;
16) you read stdin, stdout, stderr files and how to redirect that files.
