Computer Test - 1st semester
The last day of my first year exams and the biggest mountain is still not conquered - "Computer Practical".
The only thing I learned in last one year is to differentiate between a CPU and a monitor. This is the only
true knowledge I have about this subject.
Let me look at the search and sort program again.
Scanf then printf….Oops…printf then scanf… # include iostream.h…#include conio.h…clrscr()
Oh...God...I wish that share folder still exists… I hope the netsend command still works.
God...Help me… main ()…curly brackets open….
Oops !! There he is, the most brilliant student of our class Janeesh K.J , the one who asked
doubt to our Mechanical faculty on the first day itself. A tough question "Sir, is it possible to
store data on WordStar instead of Access ".
Ghosh!!! What's WordStar?? What's Access?? I am going to fail.
He looks too cool. Boy…5 more minutes left... C came after B…now we have C++ and VC++…C was discovered/invented (not sure) by Dennis Richie….
I can hear one of the gal asking Janeesh "What's ANSI C ?"
Oops...I don't know even that...Probably discovered by Ancy… so C was discovered by both Dennis and Ancy… might be husband - wife.
Here comes the lab assistant.
"Guys get in!!!"
So at last the time has come. Utmost one more supplementary. Huh!!! Karthik …you have been through these situations now and then … bravo...Come on!!!!
I entered the lab with shaking hands...legs…entire body...
Oh that's my system!!!! It's still vacant…my shared drives…. Ha ha ha ..great
"Hey…take this system…sit according to your roll number" (In came the voice of lab assistant)
What the…H*%$ is it….?
Hey even this system is far from the faculty's desk. This is great.
"Now !! turn over the sheet of paper on your desk, you have to complete the task in 3 hours. First write down the algorithm and then start doing the program."
So...This is it… Come on…let's see what's in there….
Write a program to sort N natural numbers in ascending order and then perform search operation.
(PS: Use Bubble sort and binary search).
Nice question the one I have mugged up. Take this Compy – Dompy…
#include iostream.h…#include conio.h..main()….
Its' over and still plenty of time left. Let me see what others are doing. Oh !! God they all are gone. Was this paper that easy!!
"Karthik are you finished with the work?"
"Yes Mam"
"OK !! show me the output"
"Here it is..." ...Ctrl+F9
"Okay..that looks okay..it could have been better…you should add comments where ever possible…"…bla bla bla..and one more bla….
Oh !!! she is gone….hmmm..she will never get satisfied…anyways..It's over…
I started going towards the door
" Karthik !!! where r u going? Come over here. You still have VIVA left ."
Huh !!! Not again !!!
"Please sit "
"Thank you "
"Okay !! Tell me..What is a computer"
'A computer is an electronic device…….tttttrrrrrrrrrrppppppp"..
I am the best..I am the best..I am the best.. Yah I am best
"What r macros?"
'Sorry'
Did she hear me saying I am the best…
"What r libraries"
'Pardon'
"What are command line arguments?"
'Don't know'
"What are inbuilt functions?"
'Can u please repeat the question……'
Are these questions from Computer Science!!!! Huh !!!
"Okay one last question…Show me where is the server in our lab"
Hmmm….Server is something big…yah it's very big….bigger than CPU and monitor…now I have to find where it is….hmmm…
not that…that's a switch board…not even that...that's AC….hmmmm…which one is the server…..Oopps…that's her again…
"Hey !!! Stop revolving in your chair and tell me..Which is the server?"
Hey that looks like a server….
'There it is'.…(pointing hand towards the UPS, but the faculty thought Karthik was pointing towards the system..kept on the table )
"Good…Why didn't you tell me earlier if you knew that? Actually no one answered it correctly...Good keep it up"
"Thank you mam..thanks a lot…"
Yahoooo…..last ball..sixer..yipeeee………………….
