ZOHO Placement Paper

Directions for questions 1-5: Answer the questions on the basis of transformations made on the given matrix.

Condition A: The transformations are made individually. For example transformation

2 will not be made on result on transformation 1.

COLUMN 1 COLUMN 2 COLUMN 3 COLUMN 4

ROW 1 1 1 1 1

Transformation 3: Column 4 elements are copied as Column 2 elements and then Row 3 is interchanged with
Row 1.
