"The value of the variable will remain the same which is already have when the sub-processor is called".

Explanation:

The above question said that:-

void fun (int a)

{

a=a+1;

}

void main ()

{

int a=5;

fun (a);

}

//what will be the value of a in the main function after the fun function is excuted.

Then the answer is: the value of a will be 5 in the main function. It is because when the fun function is called, then a variable that is defined in the fun function is a local variable for fun function. That scope after the fun function is null. The a variable inside the fun function is a different variable and the main function a variable is also a different variable. So when the user prints the value of a variable inside the fun function, it will give the result as 6. But when he prints the value of a variable inside the main function, then it will give the value as 5.
