Study Notes
Scope of C Programming
- Covers arrays, pointers, and memory allocation in C programming
Basics of Pointers
- Declaration:
type *pointername;declares a pointer - Initialization:
pointername = &variablename;using&operator - Changing/reading value at address:
*pointername = value;
Pointers with Arrays
- Assigning array address to pointer:
pointername = arrayname; - Using pointers:
pointernamecan be used like an array name
