Description
A few related minor issues in Activity 2.5.2.2., section 2.5.2.:
-
The question asks what
cout << *ptrN << endl;
would print and marks the correct answer asvarPtr: 50
, but that is not technically correct. It would only print50
. If the intention is to printvarPtr: 50
the statement should becout << "varPtr: " << *ptrN << endl;
. As it is, option e is actually the (technically) correct one (although marking it as such would make this a bit of a trick question). Also,varPtr
seems to be an older name of the pointer in the example, should probably be updated toptrN
now. -
The feedback for answer a is inconsistent with the answer itself, after the value was changed from 100 to 9 in commit 8ab95eb.
-
The feedback for answer c is also inconsistent with the answer. Judging the intention by the feedback text, the answer should be updated to be
59
, rather than150
. -
The question itself could be a little clearer about where this extra code should be inserted. Clearly, it needs to be inserted after line 7, for example between lines 7 and 8, rather than "into line 7-8", which could mean the same thing but is a little vague.
