Choose the correct option to fill ? 1 and ? 2 so that the program below prints an input string in reverse order. Assume that the input string is terminated by a newline character.
void recerse (void) {
  int c;
  if (?1) reverse() ;
  ?2
}
main {
  printf ("Enter Text" ); 
  printf("\n");
  reverse() ;
  printf("\n") ;
}
A
?1 is (getchar ( )! = '\ n')
?2 is getchar (c);
B
?1 is ((c = getchar ( ) )! = '\ n')
?2 is getchar (c);
C
?1 is (c ! = '\ n')
?2 is putchar (c);
D
?1 is ((c = getchar ( ) )! = '\ n')
?2 is putchar (c);

Which of the following are true?

I. A programming language which does not permit global variables of any kind and has no nesting of procedures/functions, but permits recursion can be implemented with static storage allocation

II. Multi-level access link (or display) arrangement is needed to arrange activation records only if the programming language being implemented has nesting of procedures/functions

III. Recursion in programming languages cannot be implemented with dynamic storage allocation

IV. Nesting procedures/functions and recursion require a dynamic heap allocation scheme and cannot be implemented with a stack-based allocation scheme for activation records

V. Programming languages which permit a function to return a function as its result cannot be implemented with a stack-based storage allocation scheme for activation records
