we use pointers in c program because code example
Example 1: 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 2: how do pointers work in c programmwiz
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int* pc, c;
c = 22;
printf("Address of c: %p\n", &c);
printf("Value of c: %d\n\n", c);
pc = &c;
printf("Address of pointer pc: %p\n", pc);
printf("Content of pointer pc: %d\n\n", *pc);
c = 11;
printf("Address of pointer pc: %p\n", pc);
printf("Content of pointer pc: %d\n\n", *pc);
*pc = 2;
printf("Address of c: %p\n", &c);
printf("Value of c: %d\n\n", c);
return 0;
}
Example 3: How to use pointers in C
myvar = 25;
foo = &myvar;
bar = myvar;
