What is the output of this program?

#include <stdio.h> 
#define x 3
int main()
{
  int i;
  i = x*x*x;
  printf("%d",i);
  return 0;
}

 

  • A.27
  • B.x is not declared
  • C.No output
  • D.Garbage value

Answer: A

Correct answer: 27

x expands to 3 wherever it appears, so i = x*x*x; becomes i = 3*3*3;, giving 27. Since all three operands are simple constants there is no precedence trap here - unlike a macro whose body is an expression.
