About Pointer



A pointer is a variable which contain the memory address. It also points to a specific data types. Three operator are commonly used when dealing with pointer.
1   &   address operator
2   * de-referencing operator
3   ->  structure pointer operator
Example:
In this example you will see how pointer works.
In the above figure you see that c is a variable of char data-type and it has value "A" inside. The address of variable c is 0X3000
Now in this figure you see that c is a variable of char data-type and it has value 'A' inside. The address variable c is 0X3000. And a pointer variable cptr of char data-type. The cptr pointer variable having the address of c variable rather value. So this is one the important difference between a general variable and pointer variable is that a pointer variable contains memory address.

A complete example

#include <stdio.h>
void main()
{
char c ='A';
char *cptr;
cptr=&c;
printf("\nThe address of c is\t%p",&c);
printf("\nValue of c is\t\t%c",c);
printf("\n\nThe address of cptr is\t %p",&cptr);
printf("\nValue of cptr is\t%p",cptr);
printf("\nAccess variable which cptr point to is\t%c",*cptr);
}

Output:

From the output of above example you can see that the address of these two variables are different and the pointer variable holding the address of another variable which it point to.
