C++ pointer arithmetic code example

Example 1: C++ pointer arithmetic

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;
const int MAX = 3;

int main () {
   int  var[MAX] = {10, 100, 200};
   int  *ptr;

   // let us have array address in pointer.
   ptr = var;
   
   for (int i = 0; i < MAX; i++) {
      cout << "Address of var[" << i << "] = ";
      cout << ptr << endl;

      cout << "Value of var[" << i << "] = ";
      cout << *ptr << endl;

      // point to the next location
      ptr++;
   }
   
   return 0;
}

Example 2: pointer arithmetic C

#include <stdio.h>

const int MAX = 3;

int main () {

   int  var[] = {10, 100, 200};
   int  i, *ptr;

   /* let us have array address in pointer */
   ptr = &var[MAX-1];
	
   for ( i = MAX; i > 0; i--) {

      printf("Address of var[%d] = %x\n", i-1, ptr );
      printf("Value of var[%d] = %d\n", i-1, *ptr );

      /* move to the previous location */
      ptr--;
   }
	
   return 0;
}
