Syntel Placement Paper (Technical & Analytical)
Technical Test:
1. Graphics:Painters algorithm is used for...........
2. Graphics:Why is 'Lighting' operations done on World Coordinates?
3. Graphics:One more question
4. Some question on C External Variables.
5. How can you call a function written in FORTRAN from a C program ?
6. Normal question on pointer addition
7. Another question on pointer addition
8. A question on 64 bit OS's and Virtual Memory it will be having
9. Another question on 64 bit OS
10. A structure was given and it contained normal data as well as some bit-wise data.You had to find the total size taken up by the structure
11. A big code with lots of pointers. There was a struct which contained 2 arrays. Then an array of that structure was declared. The code used these structures and you had to find the values of a variable 'j' at various points inside the code
12. A code which had some declarations of some data items. There were a couple of normal data items(char,int..) and some pointers as well and a malloc call. You have to find the total memory taken up in the stack(Hint:Pointers and all are allocated in heap, not in stack, so dont count them).Also in most of these questions, they were specifying that the OS was 32 bit
13. A question on nesting of pointers. There was this pointer to a function which returned an array of char pointers.....You had to give the exact definition of the function
14. Value of 2 particular variables in C(MAXINT and some other constant)
15. What do you need to do to open more than 10 files simultaneously in Microsoft Operating System? -change stdio.h/change CONFIG.SYS/compiler dependent
16. A question on Macro( consisted of something like CTRL&037)
17. Another question on Macro expansion
18. Yet another question on Macro expansion
19. UNIX question on 'who' output and then doing some other operation and then asking you whats the output.
20. UNIX question on 'awd' operation.
2. Graphics:Why is 'Lighting' operations done on World Coordinates?
3. Graphics:One more question

Analytical Test:
21. 101^100 -1 is divisible by.....
22. Question on boat ( stream velocity given...)
23. Train Question( Goods and Passenger train.. their speeds given..)
24. Pipe question (with leak at the bottom..)
25. Salary & Proportion problem
26. Another problem on Salary & Proportion
27. Age question-father and son
28. Another age question
29. Question onratios(Sachin:Saurav=Saurav:Rahul=3:2....together they scored some runs,you had to find the runs scored by Sachin)
30. Angle between hands when time is 2:20
31. x^2 + 4 y^2 =4xy.Find x:y
32. A question on Arithmetic Progression(something like 5 times the 5th term is 8 times the 8th term..find 12th term...)
33. A and B's work units given.They were together gievn Rs.720.When C joined,they together completed the work in 5 days.Find C's wages
34. There was a circle.A square of max size was cut from it.From this square,a circle of max size was cut.What was the ratio of this final size w.r.t initial size?
35. A runs 3/4th faster than B.One of them was placed some metres ahead.How far should the finishing post be placed so that both of them finish at the same time?
36. Longest time one has to wait for next birthday?(366/365/4 years/8years)
37. Next no: in the seq: 7,11,__,19,23
38. Some question steps...it was 10 ft high...an ant travelled upwards..and total time taken
39. Cricket-some data on runrate of the opposition being 15%....
40. Time & Distance..somebody was travelling along the circumference.... The questions are not at all complete because lack of memory :-)
