Explanation: Procedure abstraction hides details behind abstraction boundaries and it is increase the security between layers.
6. What is the output of the following statement?
*(setf thing 'sphere r 1) * (cond ((eq thing 'circle) (* pi r r)) ((* 4 pi r r)))
a) 10.566
b) 11.5683
c) 12.56637
d) 13
View Answer
Explanation: This statement will help to find the area of sphere.
Output:
12.566370614359172d0
7. What is the output of the following statement?
span class="sy0"> * (setf p .6) * (cond ((> p .75) 'very-likely)((> p .5) 'likely)((> p .25) 'unlikely)(t 'very-unlikely))
a) Very-likely
b) Likely
c) Unlikely
d) Very-unlikely
View Answer
Explanation: As the value p is .6, it is printing likely.
Output:
LIKELY
8. What is the output of the following statement?

a) 1
b) 12.56637
c) NIL
d) T
View Answer
Explanation: As the value is not matched, it is printing as NIL.
Output:
NIL

c) Eggs
d) Normal
View Answer
Explanation: As breakfast is not empty, It is printing normal.
Output:
NORMAL
10. What is the output of the following statement?
span class="sy0"> * (setf thing 'point r 1) * (case thing (circle (*pi r r))(sphere (* 4 pi r r)) (otherwise 0))
a) 1
b) 0
c) 12.566
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer
Explanation: Otherwise is like else statement, So it is printing 0.
