Bc++ Developer Hiring Guide

Hiring Guide for Bc++ Engineers

Ask the right questions to secure the right Bc++ talent among an increasingly shrinking pool of talent.

Bc++ is not a recognized programming language. It seems like there might be some confusion between two different languages: B and C++. B is an early programming language, developed at Bell Labs in 1969, which served as the precursor to the widely used C language. On the other hand, C++ is a general-purpose programming language created by Bjarne Stroustrup as an extension of the C programming language. It has imperative, object-oriented and generic programming features while also providing facilities for low-level memory manipulation. If you're referring to Borland C++, it's a compiler for the aforementioned C++ coding language developed by Borland International Inc., known for its Integrated Development Environment (IDE).

How would you use pointers in Bc++?

Pointers in Bc++ are used to store the address of a variable. They are declared using the '*' operator and can be used to access the variable directly.

Describe the difference between a class and a structure in Bc++.

In Bc++, a class and a structure are almost similar. The only difference is that members of a structure are public by default, while members of a class are private by default.

What are the basic data types in Bc++?

The basic data types in Bc++ are int, char, float, and double.

How would you define the main function in Bc++?

The main function in Bc++ is defined as 'int main()'. It is the entry point of the program and where the execution of the program begins.

Next 20 minutes

Specific Bc++ development questions

The next 20 minutes of the interview should attempt to focus more specifically on the development questions used, and the level of depth and skill the engineer possesses.

How would you implement polymorphism in Bc++?

Polymorphism in Bc++ can be implemented using function overloading, operator overloading, and virtual functions.

Describe the difference between overloading and overriding in Bc++.

Overloading is when two or more functions in the same scope have the same name but different parameters. Overriding is when a derived class has a definition for one of the member functions of the base class.

What are the different types of inheritance in Bc++?

The different types of inheritance in Bc++ are single inheritance, multiple inheritance, multilevel inheritance, hierarchical inheritance, and hybrid inheritance.

How would you handle exceptions in Bc++?

Exceptions in Bc++ are handled using the try, catch, and throw keywords. The code that might throw an exception is put inside a try block, and the exceptions are caught in the catch block.

Describe the difference between pass by value and pass by reference in Bc++.

In pass by value, a copy of the variable is passed to the function, so changes made inside the function do not affect the original variable. In pass by reference, the address of the variable is passed to the function, so changes made inside the function affect the original variable.

Digging deeper

Code questions

These will help you see the candidate's real-world development capabilities with Bc++.

What does the following simple Bc++ code do?

int main() {
   int a = 10;
   int b = 20;
   int sum = a + b;
   cout << sum;
   return 0;
}

This code declares two integer variables 'a' and 'b', assigns them the values 10 and 20 respectively, adds them together, assigns the result to the variable 'sum', and then outputs the sum, which is 30.

What will be the output of the following Bc++ code?

int main() {
   for(int i = 1; i <= 5; i++) {
      cout << i << ' ';
   }
   return 0;
}

This code will output the numbers 1 through 5, each followed by a space. So the output will be '1 2 3 4 5 '.

What does the following Bc++ code do that deals with arrays?

int main() {
   int arr[5] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
   for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
      cout << arr[i] << ' ';
   }
   return 0;
}

This code declares an array of five integers, assigns the values 1 through 5 to the elements of the array, and then outputs these values, each followed by a space. So the output will be '1 2 3 4 5 '.

What does the following Bc++ code do that deals with threading?

#include 
void foo() {
   cout << 'Hello World';
}
int main() {
   thread t1(foo);
   t1.join();
   return 0;
}

This code includes the thread library, defines a function 'foo' that outputs 'Hello World', creates a new thread 't1' that runs this function, waits for this thread to finish, and then returns 0. So the output will be 'Hello World'.

What does the following Bc++ code do that deals with class objects?

class MyClass {
public:
   int x;
   MyClass(int val) : x(val) {}
};
int main() {
   MyClass obj(10);
   cout << obj.x;
   return 0;
}

This code defines a class 'MyClass' with a public integer member 'x' and a constructor that initializes 'x' with a value. Then it creates an object of this class with the value 10 for 'x' and outputs this value. So the output will be '10'.

What does the following more advanced Bc++ code do?

template 
T GetMax (T a, T b) {
   return (a>b?a:b);
}
int main () {
   int i=5, j=6, k;
   k=GetMax(i,j);
   cout << k;
   return 0;
}

This code defines a template function 'GetMax' that takes two arguments of any type and returns the greater of the two. Then it declares three integers 'i', 'j', and 'k', assigns the values 5 and 6 to 'i' and 'j', uses 'GetMax' to assign the greater of 'i' and 'j' to 'k', and outputs this value. So the output will be '6'.

Wrap-up questions

Final candidate for Bc++ role questions

The final few interview questions for a Bc++ candidate should typically focus on a combination of technical skills, personal goals, growth potential, team dynamics, and company culture.

Describe the difference between a stack and a heap in Bc++.

A stack is used for static memory allocation and a heap for dynamic memory allocation. Variables allocated on the stack are deallocated automatically when they go out of scope. Variables allocated on the heap must be deallocated explicitly using the delete operator.

What are the different types of operators in Bc++?

The different types of operators in Bc++ are arithmetic operators, relational operators, logical operators, bitwise operators, assignment operators, and special operators.

How would you use templates in Bc++?

Templates in Bc++ are used to create generic functions or classes. They allow the same function or class to operate on different data types.

Describe the difference between a virtual function and a pure virtual function in Bc++.

A virtual function has a definition in the base class and can be overridden in the derived class. A pure virtual function does not have a definition in the base class and must be overridden in the derived class.

What are the different types of constructors in Bc++?

The different types of constructors in Bc++ are default constructor, parameterized constructor, copy constructor, and dynamic constructor.
