Determine output:

void main()
{
      extern int i;
      i=20;
      printf("%d", sizeof(i));
}

A. 20

B. 2

C. Compiler Error

D. Linker Error

Answer: Option D

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Linker error: undefined symbol '_i'. Explanation:
extern declaration specifies that the variable i is defined somewhere else. The compiler passes the external variable to be resolved by the linker. So compiler doesn't find any error. During linking the linker searches for the definition of i. Since it is not found the linker flags an error.
