Output of C Programs | Set 10

Last Updated : 24 Jul, 2025

Predict the output of the below programs. 
Difficulty Level: Rookie
Question 1 

Output: 0 
There is no problem with the program. It simply creates a user defined type i and creates a variable a of type i.
Question 2 

Output: Compiler Error -> Initialization with incompatible pointer type. 
The line typedef int *i makes i as type int *. So, the declaration of a means a is pointer to a pointer. The Error message may be different on different compilers. 

One possible correct solution of this code is in Question 4.  Also now try this:

Question 3  

Output: Compiler Error -> Multiple Storage classes for a. 
In C, typedef is considered as a storage class. The Error message may be different on different compilers. 
Question 4 

Output: 
10
