C++ Pointer Arithmetic - Learn how to use pointer arithmetic in C++, including the basics of pointers, memory addresses, and how to manipulate data in arrays.
Example: Passing Pointer to a Function in C Programming In this example, we are passing a pointer to a function. When we pass a pointer as an argument instead of a variable then the address of the variable is passed instead of the value. So any change made by the function using the po...
Learn about C pointer arithmetic, its operations, and how to effectively use pointers in C programming for better code manipulation.
andwild pointerin C. I have already written a brief article on these topics. The main aim of this blog post to give you a quick introduction to these important concepts. Also, I will describe different states of the pointer with common tips to protect the code from the bad effect of po...
*points to last 4 lines in his previous post* Mar 14, 2009 at 11:25pm Scubatoad(24) Wow, somehow I didnt even see those... I thought it was an example of code. Ok, so I changed cptr and n to an int. It builds and I will have to play with it to see if I am still get...
Pointer arithmetic with raw pointers is performed at the byte level. When you add to or subtract from a raw pointer, the result is a new raw pointer offset by that number of bytes. The following example allocates four bytes of memory and stores0xFFin all four bytes: ...
int x; int *ptr; //pointer variable declaration ptr = &x; //initialization with address of x 3) Do not write any dereferencing operation before initializing pointer variable with a valid memory address; this may cause run time error.Consider the following code snippet...

Although less common, pointer arithmetic also works with subtraction. Given some pointerptr,ptr - 1returns the address of theprevious objectin memory (based on the type being pointed to). #include<iostream>intmain(){intx{};constint*ptr{&x};// assume 4 byte intsstd::cout<<ptr<<' '<<...
In the following example we regard the task to perform one of the four basic arithmetic operations. The taskisfirst solvedusingaswitch-statement. Then itisshown, how the same can be doneusinga function pointer. It's only an example and the task is so easy that I suppose nobody will ...
