C Switch Case Questions

6. What will be the output of the C program?

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
	
	switch(2/3)
	{
		case 1:

		printf("Default block executed");
	}
	return 0;
}

A. case 1 executed✘

B. case 1 executed case 2 executed ✔

C. case 2 executed ✘

D. Compilation Error✘

x

Option: B

Explanation

In C Programming, by default literals are unsigned integer data type. So when we perform dividing operation(3/2) returns 1 instead of 1.500000. Finally the case 1 executed and there is no break statement so case 2 also executed.
