Indicate what would the SWAP macro be expanded to on preprocessing. Would the code compile?

#define SWAP (a, b, c ) (c t; t = a, a = b, b = t; )

main()

{

    int x = 10, y = 20;

    SWAP (x, y, int );

    printf ( " %d%d ", x, y);

}

( int t ; t = a, a = b, b = t ;);

Q:

Planets do not twinkle because

A) Far distance B) Total internal reflection
C) Refraction D) Near distance
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Near distance

Explanation:

Stars twinkle because they’re so far away from Earth that when light from the stars passes through the atmosphere, it is bent countless times due to refraction, making it look like as if they were blinking. The sun and other planets doesn’t twinkle because it’s too close to Earth compared to other stars.
