Group 'B' [9x2=18]

4. Answer the following questions:

 

a) "Computer network reduces the operation cost". Justify the statement.

Computer Network reduces expenses of an office because computer on a network share different hardware devices like printers, scanners, hard disk etc. And sharing those hardware devices will reduces the expense of an office. For example if there are twenty computers in an office, now for printing the data there is no need to buy twenty printers individually rather than simple network the computer and connect the printer on the network which helps in sharing of the one printer among twenty computers which reduces the cost of buying nineteen printers individually.

10. Write a program in C programming to find the reverse of an input number. [4]

 

#include <stdio.h>

int main()

{

  int n, s = 0, r;

  while (n != 0)

{

    r = n % 10;

    s = s * 10 + r;
