pointer in c programming code example

Example 1: poiner in c

int* pc, c, d;
c = 5;
d = -15;

pc = &c; printf("%d", *pc); // Output: 5
pc = &d; printf("%d", *pc); // Ouptut: -15

Example 2: how to make pointers in c

datatype *var;

variable var actually holds the address of the data(memory where it is stored)
*var lets you access the data stored at that address

Example 3: poiner in c

int c, *pc;

// pc is address but c is not
pc = c; // Error

// &c is address but *pc is not
*pc = &c; // Error

// both &c and pc are addresses
pc = &c;

// both c and *pc values 
*pc = c;

Example 4: How to use pointers in C

myvar = 25;
foo = &myvar;
bar = myvar;
