There was global Samsung aptitude test(GSAT)
50 questions 60 minutes each question carries equal marks..
section-1(25 q’s):-quantitative ability total 25 ques-20 questions Data Interpretation(pie chart, bar chart, line graph) and 5 questions quant very simple(multiplication n division and percentage)no need to study quant except DI
section-2( 25 q’s):-analytic reasoning(solve reasoning questions given in GRE)
Technical interview:- He asked based on my resume. C basic questions like storage class, structures and on my project, 2 questions on c++ . Then he told me to write 1 c program and solve a puzzle
Q:-C program to set a bit (whose position is given) in integer no. if it is not set, and return the no. if it is set.
Puzzle:-There are two ropes of uneven size and composition. Each of them get completely burnt in 60 mins. How to measure 45mins using this info.
HR interview:-Tell me about your family background, why Samsung, your technological interests. That’s all

prints
a. garbage
b. -3
c. an integer that changes from machine to machine
d. none of the above
11) The following program fragment

d. printing of 15
12)The following description of the program, please pick the wrong one?
int main(void) {
int i= 100;
int*pi=&i;
int**dpi = π
}
a. dpi to store a pointer with the address for pi is a double pointer
b. (*pi==i) is true.
c. (*pi== **dpi)is true.
d. (*dpi == 100) is true
13)Below, please find the results for the program do?
int counter = 0, i;
for(i=0;;i++) (
if (i < 100) continue;
counter ++;
if (counter == 100) break;
)
printf(%d%d”,i, counter);
a.199 100
b. 200 100
c. 199 99
d. 200 0
14) See below for a description of the defined array, please choose the wrong thing ?
int a [] = {10,20,30,40};
a. successive one-dimensional array of elements in the array a[1], a[2] is located in the contiguous memory space.
b. a[1] and a* (a+1) is the same.
c. During the initialization of an array; array size must be specified
otherwise the initial value at compile error occurs
d. & a[1] which has a +1 value, such as the address
15) Which is true about goto statement(don’t remember the options)
Ans:- It is used for coming out of the nested loop
16)what is conditional compilation(don’t remember the options)
Ans:-compilation is based on condition

a) 3
b) 2
c) 1
d) 0
18) The correct relation between / and %( don’t remember the options and answer but I ll tell u logic)
Logic:-there will be expression containing a,b,/,%.take random values substitute and check the result(LHS=RHS)
19) what is the output of the below code
Main ()
