SECTION A
Answer all the questions.
Global Variables: Declared outside all functions, accessible across all functions in the program.
int* arr = new int[n]; // Dynamic array of size n
- Encapsulation: Bundling data with methods.
- Inheritance: Reusing properties and methods of parent classes.
- Polymorphism: One interface, multiple implementations.
- * (Multiplication)
- / (Division)
- + (Addition)
- - (Subtraction)
- IF-ELSE statement
- Switch statement
- Ternary operator
SECTION B PRATICAL
✍️1. Suppose you travelled 335 miles and your car used 9.8 gallons. Write a program to calculate and print average gas mileage by dividing miles travelled by gasoline used. Choose names to stand for miles travelled, gasoline used, and average gas mileage.
