What are the advantages of auto variables?
1)The same auto variable name can be used in different blocks2)There is no side effect by changing the values in the blocks3)The memory is economically used 4)Auto variables have inherent protection because of local scope

The main advantage of auto variable is if we use auto variable in different block of our code with different value then it has not any sideeffect because it is automatically managed by the compiler .

Diffence arrays and pointers?
Ø Pointers are used to manipulate data using the address. Pointers use * operator to access the data pointed to by themØ Arrays use subscripted variables to access and manipulate data.Array variables can be equivalently written using pointer expression.

Arrays are constant pointer . that is we can not point array variable to another location but we can modifies the content of the array elemnt.Pointers can be pointed to any address of same type.(Untill it does not declare const explicitly).

It is important when ever anyone asks uArray elements are always stored in contiguous memory locations.If they increment then they points to next of that array type ..But when a pointer incremented always points to the immediately next location of its typeBye,Prabhu

Function pointers are actually pointers. The address of a function gets pointed to by function pointer.Example of defining a function pointer is as below:int (*exforsys)(int,float)= NULL;

printf("Address of j=%un",&j);
printf("Address of k=%un",&k);
return 0;

Suppose the answer is:
Address of i=2004
Address of j=2002
Address of k=2000
why is the address decreasing ?">Consider the following program:#includemain(){int i=3;int *j;int **k;j=&i;k=&j;printf("Address of i=%un",&i);printf("Address of j=%un",&j);printf("Address of k=%un",&k);return 0;}Suppose the answer is:Address of i=2004Address of j=2002Address of k=2000why is the address decreasing ?
