Question

Which of the following is correct about this pointer in C++?
a) this pointer is passed as a hidden argument in all static variables of a class
b) this pointer is passed as a hidden argument in all the functions of a class
c) this pointer is passed as a hidden argument in all non-static functions of a class
d) this pointer is passed as a hidden argument in all static functions of a class

Answer 1

Answer: c
Explanation: As static functions are a type of global function for a class so all the object shares the common instance of that static function whereas all the objects have there own instance for non-static functions and hence they are passed as a hidden argument in all the non-static members but not in static members.
