b) double*
c) float*
d) char*
e) None of the above

14. What is the meaning of the following declaration?

float* pVar;

a) pVar is a pointer to data of type FLOAT

a) '\n'
b) '\0'
c) '\7'
d) None of these

16. Given the following declaration:

char szName[24];

How many characters can be in the array (excluding the terminator)?

a) 24
b) 25

NOTE

When you take Exam #2, you will also have to write some code. Make sure you can write functions given a behaviorial specification, properly call functions given a prototype, and work with pointers and arrays.
