Question

Direction: The question consists of two statements, one labeled as 'Statement (I)’ and the other as 'Statement (II)’. Examine these two statements carefully and select the answer using the codes given below:

Statement (I): Variables that are defined inside subprograms are local variables.

Statement (II): Their scope is in the body of the subprogram in which they are defined.

1. Both Statement (I) and Statement (I) are individually true and Statement (II) is the correct explanation of Statement (I)
2. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are individually true but Statement (II) is not the correct explanation of Statement (I)
3. Statement (I) is true but Statement (II) is false
4. Statement (I) is false but Statement (II) is true

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 : Both Statement (I) and Statement (I) are individually true and Statement (II) is the correct explanation of Statement (I)

Local variables are defined in the subprogram which is not accessible outside of the subprogram.

Global variables:

Variables that are defined outside any function are known as global variables. These are visible (scoping) for all the functions within the program.

Local variables:

Variables that are defined inside any function are known as local variables. These are having visibility within the function where these are defined.

Hence, both statement is true and statement (II) is the correct explanation of statement (I)
