Answer 1

Do something like this..(I have not tested..pls debug and test)

List<string> lstgroup=new List<string>();

 SPGroupCollection groupCollection = web.Groups;
        foreach (SPGroup grp in groupCollection)
        {
            if (grp.ContainsCurrentUser)
            {
                lstgroup.add(grp);
            }
        }

SPUser.Groups returns a collection of SPGroups which the user is a member. Here is the documentation link
