Answer:

C code for half()

#include<stdio.h>

void half(float *pv);

int main()

{

float value=5.0;  //value is initialized  

printf ("Value before half: %4.1f\n", value); // Prints 5.0

half(&value);  // the function call takes the address of the variable.

printf("Value after half: %4.1f\n", value); // Prints 2.5

}

void half(float *pv) //In function definition pointer pv will hold the address of variable passed.

{

*pv=*pv/2;  //pointer value is accessed through * operator.

}

  • This method is called call-by-reference method.
  • Here when we call a function, we pass the address of the variable instead of passing the value of the variable.
  • The address of “value” is passed from the “half” function within main(), then in called “half” function we store the address in float pointer ‘pv.’ Now inside the half(),  we can manipulate the value pointed by pointer ‘pv’. That will reflect in the main().
  • Inside half() we write *pv=*pv/2, which means the value of variable pointed by ‘pv’ will be the half of its value, so after returning from half function value of variable “value” inside main will be 2.5.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

The program to this question can be given as:

Program:

import java.util.*; //import package

public class Main //defining class

{

public static int[][] transpose(int[][] a1) //defining function transpose

{

int i,j; //define variables

int[][] transpose = new int[a1[0].length][a1.length]; //define variable transpose.

//loop for transpose matrix.

for(i = 0; i < a1.length; i++)  

{

for(j = 0; j < a1[i].length; j++)

{

transpose [j][i] = a1[i][j]; //hold value in transpose variable

}

}

return transpose ; //return transpose matrix.  

}

public static void main(String[] args) //main method.

{

int row,col,i,j; //defining variable.

Scanner obj = new Scanner(System.in); //creating Scanner class Object

System.out.print("Enter number of rows: ");//message

row = obj.nextInt(); //input rows form user.

System.out.print("Enter number of columns: ");//message

col = obj.nextInt(); //input columns form user.

int[][] a1 = new int[row][col]; //defining array.

System.out.println("Enter matrix"); //message

// loop for input array elements from user

for(i=0; i<a1.length;i++)  

{

for(j=0; j<a1[i].length;j++)  

{

a1[i][j]=obj.nextInt(); //input in array variable.

}

}

System.out.println("Matrix you insert :"); //message

// loop for display array.

for(i=0; i<a1.length;i++)  

{

for(j=0; j<a1[i].length;j++)  

{

System.out.print(a1[i][j]+" "); //print matrix

}

System.out.print("\n");

}

int[][] result = transpose(a1); //define result array variable that holds function value.

System.out.println("Transposed matrix is :");

//use loop for print Transpose matrix.

for(i = 0;i < result.length;i++)

{

for (j = 0; j < result[i].length;j++)

{

System.out.print(result[i][j] + " "); //print matrix

}

System.out.print("\n");

}

}

}

Output:

Enter number of rows: 2

Enter number of columns: 3

Enter matrix

2

3

4

9

8

7

Matrix you insert :

2 3 4  

9 8 7  

Transposed matrix is :

2 9  

3 8  

4 7  

Explanation:

The description of the above program can be given as:

  • In the above program firstly import a package, then declare a class that is "Main" inside a class defining a transpose() function this function returns a matrix in transpose form.
  • In the main class, we define a variable and matrix that is "row, col, i, j and a1[][]".  Then we Creating a scanner class object, which is used by row, col and a1[][] variables for user input.  
  • The row and col variables are used to declare matrix size and i, j variable is used in the loop for insert and display matrix.  
  • a1[][] matrix is used for input matrix elements and passes into transpose() function as an argument that returns a value that is held in the result variable. This is used as a loop for the print transpose matrix.

What is the difference between RELIABLE and UNRELIABLE sources of<br> income?
andrezito [222]
Reliable income is something you can “rely” on, or income you will always receive.

Unreliable income is something you can’t always rely on because you might not be able to access it forever.
