public:
A(int _x) { x = _x; }
int get() { return x; }
};
class B
{
static A a;
public:
static int get()
{ return a.get(); }
};
int main(void)
{
B b;

a) Garbage value
b) Compile-time Error
c) Run-time Error
d) Nothing is printed

Answer: b
Explanation: Every static member function of a class must be initialized explicitly before use and a data member, a of class A declared inside class B is used without initializing ‘a’ therefore the program gives an error.
