What will be the output of the following C++ code?
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int f(int p, int q)
{
if (p > q)
return p;
else
return q;
}
main()
{
int a = 5, b = 10;
int k;
bool x = true;
bool y = f(a, b);
k =((a * b) + (x + y));
cout << k;
}
a) 55
b) 62
c) 52
d) 75

Answer: c
Explanation: In this question, value of x = true and value of y will be also true as f(a,b) will return a non-zero value. Now when adding these values with integers, the implicit type conversion takes place hence converting both x and y to 1(integer equivalent of bool true value). So expression (a*b) + (x+y) is evaluated to 52.
