SUN Microsystems Sample Technical Questions

Here are some sample technical / tech questions from Sun Microsystem India Placement Paper

A program is given and a questions is asked:
1. For the following program.
struct XXX

float b;
char *s;
}X;If optimization :X not used in compiler then unused bits_________________.Give your assumption_______________.

Questions for finding output of programs:
2. Give the output of the following program
struct XXX
{
int a:6;
float b:4;
char s;
}
structure;
