Questions
An array has 8-bit slots but stores 12-bit integers. Position zero stores the first eight bits of the integer. The first 4 bits of position one store the last 4 bits of the first integer. The second 4 bits of position one store the highest bits of the second integer. Position two stores the lowest 8 bits of the second integer, and so on. Devise a way to read these numbers from the array in C.

- 4.0Worked as SDET internSoftware Development Engineer In Test (SDET) Intern • Former EmployeeHyderābād, Telangana, IndiaFebruary 12, 2015Pros: You'll find the best people working around yourself, which is the biggest motivation. Though it depends on the team, people are generally given the authority to take decisions. The recreational area is good, which includes TT, foosball, chess tables, and x-box with Kinect. People are co-operative and help you learn.Cons: Though they have many projects going on, the pace of work is average. This is not to say that you won't get a lot of work; it's that you won't see your deliverables go live for a long time. There are good things to learn, but not many new things to learn. You can get similar opportunities at other places too.
