Q.

What’s wrong with this code which returns xor of two nodes address ?

//struct is common userdefined datatype in c/c++ and class is it's alternative
 
struct node* XOR (struct node *a, struct node *b) 
{
    return  ((int) (a) ^ (int) (b));   //this logic is used to fill the nodes with address of a xor linked list
}
A.  nothing wrong. everything is fine B.  type casting at return is missing C.  parameters are wrong D.  total logic is wrong
