HONEYWELL PAPER ON 17TH MARCH AT HYDERABAD
Hi every one, My name is Sarath completed B.Tech.(CSE) .I have attended the Honeywell at Honeywell campus in Bangaloreon 23rd aug 2008. But I cleared only two rounds and I lost in technical round.
The pattern is as follows:
1) Written Test-1(objective- technical)
2) Written Test-2(Descriptive- aptitude+technical)
3) Technical Interview-1
4) Technical Interview-2
5) HR Interview
1)Written Test (objective)
There are two different question papers
1. Electronics stream 2. Computer stream
I belongs to computer science stream. Again there are two different sets of question papers in each stream.This test consists of 40 technical questions. The duration is 45 min.The questions are mainly from C&DS, OS, DBMS, NETWORKS, MICRO PROCESSORRS,
Some of the questions are:

a) semaphores b) mutex c) shared memory d) all
17. Unix uses _________ scheduling
a) round robin b) priority scheduling c) d)

a) application layer b) transport layer c) presentation layer d) data link layer
19. The correct order of data transfer when transferring data from magnetic disk to System is
a) magnetic diskà main memoryàcache memoryàregisters
b) magnetic diskà main memoryàregisters
c) magnetic diskà main memory/cache memoryàregisters
20. Given a binary number which is equivalent to a decimal number including a sign
a) 100 b) -100 c) 101 d)-101
21. which of the following is not true about functions.

c) function should be defined in the same order as they are declared before
d)
22. If we declare a const variable as static, then its _________ changes
a) life b) scope c) initial default value d) storage
23. What is the o/p
#define f(x,y) x=x+y;y=x-y;x=x-y;
main()
{
int a=10,b=5;
f(a,b);
printf(“ The values of a and b are, %d, %d”,a,b);
}
a) 10 5 b) 5 10 c) 5 5 d) 10 10
24. main()
{
void *ptr;
int i=1;
ptr=&i;
ptr++;
}
a) the size of ptr incremented by 1 byte
b) the size of ptr incremented by 2 bytes
c) the size of ptr incremented by 4 bytes
d) none
I remember these questions only. Remaining are mainly c programs.Around 350 members attended in main campus . Around 80 cleared this round(computers +electronics)
2)Written Test-2(Descriptive- aptitude+technical)
Next round is again written test consists of 7 aptitude questions and 10 technical questions(all c programs). This test is common for all.
The aptitude questions are
1)There are 4 women to cross bridge and Flashlight.One or two women can cross the bridge with the flash light at a time.those have different walking speeds.The pair must walk at the rate of slower pace
woman1:1 minutes
woman2:2 minutes
woman3:5 minutes
woman4:10 minutes
Then what is the minimum required time to cross the bridge by all the 4 women without throwing flashlight?
Ans) 19 min
First woman1 and 2 will go to other end in 2 min (at the slower pace of woman2)à 2m
Woman 1 will come back -à1min
Woman 1 and 3 will go--à 5min
Woman 1 will come backà1min
Woman 1 and 4 will goà10min
Total=2+1+5+1+10=19
2)There are cats got together to decide killing the mice of 999919,each cat kills equal no. of mice and each cat kills more no.of mice than cats there were.Then what are the number of cats?
3)the tree grows first day 1/2 of its original size,grows 1/3 of its previous day size, and grows 1/4 and so on. How many days it will take to grow 100 times to the original size of tree?
Ans) 150 days
4)There is one 40 kg weight stone. How many weights should I break from this 40 kg so that it can measure any weight between 1kg to 40 kg?
5)There is one monkey climbs 3fts and slips down 2fts of a tree in 1 hour. How much time it will take to reach the top of the tree of 20fts height?
Ans) 18 hours
6) A ball is released from a height of 100 mts. After falling on the ground it raises to a height of half of the previous height and the process repeats until it comes to rest. What is the total distance traveled by the ball throughout the journey.
7) Complete the series
31 62 __ 25 65 __ 19
Totally (both campuses) around 50 (cs+ec) members cleared this round.
Technical Questions
1) Write a C function to search a number in the given list of numbers .donot use printf and scanf.
2) main()
{
int a=10,b=7,c=15,z;
z=?;
printf(“Biggest number is %d”, z);
}
Write the expression for z to print the biggest of three numbers using conditional operator.
Ans) z=((a>b)&&(a>c)) ? a : (((b>a)&&(b>c))?b:c)
3) if( condition)
{
printf(“Hello”);
}
else
{
printf(“ World”);
}
What should be the condition to display the output as “hello world”.
4) what is the output of the following program
main()
{
int cnt,i=7;
cnt/=i;
printf(“%d”,cnt);
}
Remaining questions are on pointers i.e., what is the output of the program
Technical Interview – 1
In this round they mainly concentrate on C and C++.
The first question is Rate urself in C .He wrote the algorithm for gcd and asked me to write the program for it.
What is virtual function.
What is meant by monolithic operating system
What printf statement will return
What is the difference between multiprogramming and multitasking
Is UNIX multiuser os & Is windows ?
What is preprocessing
Write c program for queue
Write the layers in OSI model and what is the difference b/w connection oriented and connection less
Is sending SMS conn. oriented or conn. less?
And sending mail is conn. oriented or conn. less?
What is use of “tail” command in unix
And “ps” command
Water fall model in s/w engg.
He asked What is a process
I told program under execution
He asked what is program
I told sequence of instructions
He again asked what is meant by instruction etc.So be strong in technical subjects mainly c and c++.
