a. int A[5]; 
b. int *A = new int[5]; 
c. int A = new int[5];
d. int new A[5];

Answer:- b. int *A = new int[5]; 

Q2. My program contains the line:

Programming Assignment Answers:-

Q1. Write a program which reads in and executes very simple programs in a very simple programming language which is as follows. The language has 4 statements, with the following formats.

Code:-

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
  string s;
  map<char,int>m;
  while(getline(cin,s))
  {
    if(s[0]=='d')
    {
      m[s[7]]=s[9]-'0';
    }
    else if(s[0]=='p')
    {
      for(auto x:m)
      {
        if(x.first==s[6])
        {
          cout<<x.second<<endl;
        }
      }
    }
    else if(s[0]=='a')
    {
      auto it1 = m.find(s[4]);
      auto it2 = m.find(s[9]);
      it2->second += it1->second;
    }
    else if(s[0]=='e')
    {
      return 0;
    }
  }
  return 0;
}

Q2. You are to write a function addM to add together two matrices, which are implemented as vectors of vectors. The matrices will only contain integers. If the matrices to be added are A,B and the sum is C, then we want C[i][j]=A[i][j]+B[i][j] for all i,j.

Code:-

vector<vector<int>> addM(const vector<vector<int>>& A, const vector<vector<int>>& B)
{
  vector<vector<int>> matrix(A);
  for(size_t i=0;i<matrix.size(); i++)
  {
      for(size_t j=0;j<matrix[0].size();j++)
      {
        matrix[i][j]+=B[i][j];
      }
  }
  return matrix;
}
