26. An actor in an animation is a small program invoked _______ per frame to determine the characteristics of some object in the animation.

(A) once

(B) twice

(C) 30 times

(D) 60 times

 

Ans:- A

 

Explanation:-

An actor in an animation is a small program invoked once per frame to determine the characteristics of some object in the animation.

 

27. Bresenham line drawing algorithm is attractive because it uses

(A) Real arithmetic only

(B) Integer arithmetic only

(C) Floating point arithmetic

(D) Real and integer arithmetic

 

Ans:- B

 

Explanation:-

 

Bresenhem’s algorithm offers a significant advantage over the other methods, as it avoids floating-point arithmetic and rounding. It is a classic example of an incremental algorithm that computes the location of each pixel along the line based on information about the previous pixel. It uses only integer values and avoids any multiplications.

 

28. The refresh rate above which a picture stops flickering and fuses into a steady image is called _________.

(A) Crucial fusion frequency

(B) Current frequency fusion

(C) Critical fusion frequency

(D) Critically diffused frequency

 

Ans:- C

Explanation:-

The refresh rate of a CRT is the number of times per second the image is redrawn. It is typically 60 per second for raster displays. As the refresh rate decreases, flicker develops because the eye can no longer integrate the individual light pulses coming from a pixel. The refresh rate above which a picture stops flickering and fuses into a steady image is called the critical fusion frequency (or) CFF.

 

29. In homogenous coordinate system (x, y, z) the points with z = 0 are called

(A) Cartesian points

(B) Parallel points

(C)Origin point

(D) Point at infinity

Ans:- D

 

Explanation:-

In homogenous coordinates, we add a third coordinate to a point. Instead of being represented by a pair of numbers(x,y) each point is represented by a triple(x,y,w). At the same time, we say that two sets of homogenous coordinates(x,y,w) and (x’,y’,w’) represent the same point if and only if one is a multiple of the other. Thus (2,3,6) and (4,6,12) are the same points represented by the different coordinate triples. Also, at least one of the homogenous coordinates must be nonzero : (0,0,0) is not allowed. If the w coordinate is nonzero, we can divide through by it(x,y,w) represents the same point as (x/w,y/w,1). When w is nonzero, we normally do this division, and the numbers x/w and y/w are called the Cartesian coordinates of the homogenous points. The points with w=0 are called points at infinity. So, the correct answer is D.

 

30. If 40 black lines interleaved with 40 white lines can be distinguished across one inch, the resolution is

(A) 40 line-pairs per inch

(B) 80 line-pairs per inch

(C) 1600 lines per inch

(D) 40 lines per inch

 

Ans:- A

Explanation:-

Resolution is the number of distinguishable lines per inch that a device can create. Resolution is defined as the closest spacing at which adjacent black and white lines can be distinguished by observers. If 40 black lines interleaved with 40 white lines can be distinguished across one inch, the resolution is 80 lines per inch or 40 line-pairs per inch. So, the correct answer is A.

31. Images tend to be very large collection of data. The size of memory required for a 1024 by 1024 image in which the colour of each pixel is represented by a n-bit number, (in an 8 bit machines) is

(A) n X 8 MB

(B) n / 8 MB

(C) (1024 X 1024 ) / 8 MB

(D) 1024 MB

 

Ans:- B

 

Explanation:-

Look at the options which are not going to be correct at all. Eliminate the wrong answers to get the right answer. Every pixel is represented by a n-bit number, the value of n is not mentioned. So, we rule out C and D options completely. So, it can be either A or B. But it is not A because the n-bit number is not going to be multiplied with 8 for a 8 bit machine. So, the correct answer is B.

 

32. Arrays in C language can have _________ with reference to memory representation.

(A) n-subscripts

(B) two-subscripts

(C) only one subscript

(D) three subscripts only

 

Ans:- C

 

Explanation:-

With reference to memory representation, even a two-dimensional array subscript is going to be converted into a single subscript for accessing or referring the memory location. So, it will be option C.

 

33. Refer the points as listed below :

(a) What are the operator precedence rules ?

(b) What are the operator associativity rules ?

(c) What is the order of operand evaluation ?

(d) Are there restrictions on operand evaluation side effects ?

Which of the above must be considered as primary design issues

for arithmetic expressions ?

(A) (a), (b) and (c)

(B) (a), (c) and (d)

(C) (a), (b) and (d)

(D) (a), (b), (c) and (d)

 

Ans:- C

Explanation:-

The options (a),(b) and (d) makes sense, but option (c) is not so clear. There is no order on the operand evaluation. It is decided by the operator precedence and associativity. So, the correct answer is C.

 

34. Horn clauses are special kinds of propositions which can be described as

(A) Single atomic proposition on left side.

(B) Single or multiple atomic proposition on left side.

(C) A single atomic proposition on left side and a single atomic proposition on right side.

(D) A single atomic proposition on left side or an empty left side.

 

Ans:- D

Explanation:-

A Horn clause is a unique kind of proposition which has either one single proposition on the left hand side or an empty proposition. When a Horn clause does contain a proposition on the left side, it is sometimes refered to as a headed Horn clause. The Horn clause is named after Alfred Horn who studied this type of propositional clause (Horn, 1951).

35.Which of the following is/are the fundamental semantic model(s) of parameter passing ?

(A) in mode

(B) out mode

(C)in-out mode

(D) all of the above

 

Ans:- D

 

Explanation:-

The semantic model(s) of parameter passing are in,out and inout. The actual parameters are brought in, moved out, or brought in and moved out respectively.
