ARRAY &
POINTER
 ❖ WHAT IS ARRAY?

An array is a collection of data

items, all of the same type,
accessed using a common name.

Syntax : data_type array_name[array size];

❖ TYPES OF ARRAY

•One Dimensional Array

•Two Dimensional Array
•Multi-Dimensional Array
❖ ONE DIMENSIONAL ARRAY :
Num[0] Num[1] Num[2] Num[3] Num[4]

5 8 7 6 0
Element 1 Element 2 Element 3 Element 4 Element 5

Syntax : data_type array_name[size]

#include <stdio.h> OUTPUT:
int main()
{ 7
Process returned
int arr[5]={5,6,7,8,9};
0 (0x0)
printf("%d", arr[2]); execution time :
4.437 s
return 0; Press any key to
} continue.
 ❖ TWO DIMENSIONAL ARRAY :
Column 0 Column 1 Column 1
Row 0 num[0][0] num[0][1] num[0][2]
Row 1 num[1][0] num[1][1] num[1][2]
Row 2 num[2][0] num[2][1] num[2][2]

Syntax : data_type array_name[row][column];

 OUTPUT:
#include<stdio.h>
Enter arr[0][0]: 1
int main() Enter arr[0][1]: 2
Enter arr[0][2]: 3
{ Enter arr[1][0]: 1
int arr[3][3],i, j; Enter arr[1][1]: 2
Enter arr[1][2]: 3
Enter arr[2][0]: 1
for(i = 0; i < 3; i++) Enter arr[2][1]: 2
{ Enter arr[2][2]: 3
for(j = 0; j < 3; j++)
{ Process returned 0 (0x0)
printf("Enter arr[%d][%d]: ", i, j); execution time : 6.880 s
scanf("%d", &arr[i][j]); Press any key to continue.
}
}
return 0;
}
 ❖ MULTI-DIMENSIONAL ARRAY :
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9

Syntax : data_type array_name[size1][size2][size3]….[sizeN];

Initialization:

int arr[2][3][4] = { {3, 4, 7}, {0, -3, 9}, {3, 12, 2} },

{ {1, 4, 6, }, {5, 9, 5}, {1, 4, 9} };
POINTER
❖ WHAT IS POINTER ?

A pointer is a variable which

contains the address in
memory of another variable.
 ❖ FIGURE OF POINTER

Name i J
Value 6 6004
6004 6002
Address

Location
❖ DECLARATION OF POINTER VARIABLES

data_type *pt_name;

This tells the compiler three things about the variable

pt_name.

1. The asterisk (*) tells that the variable pt_name is a

pointer variable.

2. Pt_name needs a memory location.

3. pt_name points to a variable of a fixed data_type.

FOR EXAMPLE:

Int *p;

It declares the variable p as

a pointer variable that points
to an integer data type.
EXAMPLE: OUTPUT:
#include <stdio.h>
int main ()
Address of var variable:
{ 60ff08
int var = 20; Address stored in ip
int *ip variable: 60ff08
ip = &var;
printf("Address of var variable: Value of *ip variable: 20
%x\n", &var );
printf("Address stored in ip Process returned 0 (0x0)
variable: %x\n", ip );
printf("Value of *ip variable:
execution time : 7.659 s
%d\n", *ip ); Press any key to continue.
return 0;
}
 Difference Between Ampersand and
Asterisk operators

Ampersand (&) Asterisk (*)

Returns address of Returns the value of
the given variable. the given variable.
 NULL POINTER
A pointer that is assigned NULL is called a null pointer.

#include <stdio.h> OUTPUT:

int main ()
{ The value of ptr is : 0
int *ptr = NULL;
printf("The value of ptr is Process returned 0 (0x0)
: %x\n", ptr ); execution time : 3.437 s
return 0; Press any key to
} continue.

❖ POINTERS AND STRUCTURES

• Structures can be created and accessed

using pointers. A pointer variable of a
structure can be created as below:

struct name { member1; member2; . . };

int main()
{
struct name *ptr;
}
