What are examples of a standard identifier?
Correct answer: B. Standard identifier
- A. User defined identifier
- B. Standard identifier
- C. Programmer identifier
- D. Both (a) and (b)
Explanation
User defined identifier refers to a name created by the programmer to identify specific elements within their program. These names are not predefined and can vary depending on the programmer's preference. While printf and scanf are user-defined identifiers in the C programming language, they are not considered standard identifiers because their usage is specific to C and not applicable across different systems or languages.
