1.
Wap to change the value of a variable using a pointer
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int a;
a = 10;
int *p = &a; // declaring and initializing the pointer
//prints the value of 'a'
printf("%d\n", a);
a
*p=34; //change the value stored in variable a
//prints the value of 'a'
hr
printf("%d\n", a);
return 0;
}
is
Output:
10
34
2. Increment (++) and Decrement(--) operation
.
M
b
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
ra
{
// Initializing integer variable
int a = 34;
au
// Declaring pointer variable
int* ptr_a;
// Initializing pointer variable
ptr_a = &a;
.G
// Value of a before increment
printf("Increment:\n");
printf("Before increment a = %d\n", *ptr_a);
// Unary increment operation
Er
(*ptr_a)++; //Increases the value of a by 1
// Value of a after increment
printf("After increment a = %d", *ptr_a);
// Value before decrement
printf("\n\nDecrement:\n");
printf("Before decrement a = %d\n", *ptr_a);
// unary decrement operation
(*ptr_a)--; //Decreases the value of a by 1
// Value after decrement

printf("After decrement a=%d", *ptr_a);
return 0;
}
Output:
Increment:
Before increment a = 34
After increment a = 35
Decrement:
a
Before decrement a = 35
After decrement a=34

3.Addition of an integer to a pointer variable.
is
//Important thing Rule:
//new_address=current_address + n* sizeof(datatype)
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
M
//Where n is the number by which the pointer gets increased
b
{
int a = 10;
ra
int *b = &a; // declaring and initializing the pointer
printf("Memory address before addition of an integer to pointer=%u",b);
b=b+4;//addition of an integer to a pointer variable.
au
printf("\n After adding 4 to the memory address of a");
printf("\n Memory address after addition of an integer to pointer=%u",b);
return 0;
}
.G
Output:
Memory address before addition of an integer to pointer=6684180
After adding 4 to the memory address of a
Memory address after addition of an integer to pointer=6684196
Er
4.Subtraction of an integer to a pointer variable
//Important thing Rule:
//new_address=current_address - n* sizeof(datatype)
//Where n is the number by which the pointer gets decreased
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
Compiled by:
Er.Gaurab Mishra ( Head of Department of Computer Science) KMC +2 Bagbazar
int a = 10;
int *b = &a; // declaring and initializing the pointer
printf("Memory address before subtraction of an integer to pointer=%u",b);
b=b-4;//subtraction of an integer to a pointer variable.
printf("\n After adding 4 to the memory address of a");
printf("\n Memory address after subtraction of an integer to pointer=%u",b);
return 0;
}
Output:
a
Memory address before subtraction of an integer to pointer=6684180
After subtracting 4 to the memory address of a
hr
Memory address after subtraction of an integer to pointer=6684164
Pointer Assignments
is
5. Wap to assign the value of one pointer to another pointer.
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int a;
M
b
a = 10;
int *ptr1,*ptr2;
ra
ptr1 = &a;
ptr2=ptr1;
printf("values at ptr1 and ptr2 %d %d\n", *ptr1,*ptr2);
au
printf("Address pointed to by ptr1 and ptr2: %u %u",ptr1,ptr2);
return 0;
}
.G
Output:
values at ptr1 and ptr2 10 10
Address pointed to by ptr1 and ptr2: 6684172 6684172
