1. (a) What are the benefits of Top-Down design? How is it carried out? Discuss. (10)
(b) What do you mean by the high level languages? How they differ from machine
language Discuss. (10)
2. (a) Discuss the step-by-step process followed to solve any problem. (10)
(b) What is constant? How is it different from variable? How do you create and use
various types of constants?. (10)

example. (10)
(b) Write a C program to convert a numeric number day to a named day of
the week (1 = Sunday, 2 = Monday, etc) Take an integer from user and
print the relevant day or message to the standard output. Use a
switch statement. (10)

in an array. Then it displays the first letter of each string to the standard
output. (10)
