What is the output from this program? #include void do_something(int *thisp, int that) { int the_other; the_other = 5; that = 2
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

  1  35

Explanation:

* There is a little typo in printf. It should be "\n".

Initially, the value of the first is 1, and the value of the second is 2. Then, do_something(&second, first) is called. The value of the <em>first</em> will still be 1. However, there is a call by reference for <em>second </em>variable. That means the change made by the function <em>do_something</em> will affect the value of the <em>second</em> variable.

When you look at the calculation inside the <em>do_something</em> function, you may see that value of the <em>second</em> will be 35.
