Hi Experts,

Can any one tell me how many keywords are there in C and C++.

When I searched for it, in one site I saw that its is 32(In C)-- "http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_many_keywords_are_there_in_c", and in another site it is 36 (In C)-- "http://www.tenouk.com/Module2.html".

I am little confused about it.
Can anyone help me?

Regards

Arun

And the reason to know this? Anything stopping you?

How will a number of keywords help you?

When I attend an interview, the Interviewer asked the same.. That why I asked it..

That is a strange thing to ask at an interview. At a geek get-together yes, but at an interview... hmm...

It happens this days pretty often. Companies or teams lead by idiots trying to hire more idiots.

Arun, run away from this company. If you're a good developer, or simply a clever person, you won't be able to work with those idiots anyway. If you're not, our Answers won't help you.

This is simple like that.

Solution 2

Different compilers will supports different keywords but a ANSI standard compiler will supports all the ANSI keywords and includes its own keywords.ANSI as a standard and give your answer.

Check This links for ANSI standard and other compilers additional keywords.

For C:(32 ANSI keywords)

For C++:
