RE: printf ("%d" ,printf {"tim") ); 1. results in a syntax error 2. outputs tim 3 3. outputs garbage 4. prints tim and terminates abruptly

Well yes it gives out a syntax error for the above code..

But if it was like this : printf(" d" printf("tim"));

Result : tim3

This is because printf function always returns the number of characters printed...

inner printf will print tim and send no of character printed to the next printf statement so it will print 3.
output-->tim3

RE: printf ("%d" ,printf {"tim") ); 1. results in a syntax error 2. outputs tim 3 3. outputs garbage 4. prints tim and terminates abruptly

The Answer is 2. printf function returns the number of characters printed so it returns 3 and tim is already printed due to the call to printf( tim ). So the output is tim 3.
