Pointer and Array in C Program #DOTC_Mdb

Pointer and Array in C Program.

 

Hello Everyone,

Today we will discuss about Pointer and Array in C Program. I recommend you to refer my below blogs before starting this topic.

As we already know An array is a block of sequential data and Pointer used to get the variable address. So understand the below Program where we print the address of Array elements by using pointer.

 

#include<stdio.h>

#include<stdlib.h>

 

int main( )

{

   int *p;

    int print[4] = { 10, 11, 12, 13} ;

    p = &print[0];

   for ( int i = 0 ; i<4 ; i++ )

   {

      printf("print[%d]: value is %d and address is %p\n", i, *p, p);

      p++;

   }

   return 0;

}

 

Here we use Pointer variable as int *p and declaring the array print[4] with integer numbers , after that Assigning the address of print[0] to the pointer as  p = &print[0]  because array name represents the address of the first element and finally Incrementing the pointer so that it points to next element by using p++ on every increment.

Note: Array always starts with 0 so here 1st value will treat from 0 only There is a difference of 4 bytes between each element because that’s the size of an integer. This means all the elements are stored in consecutive contiguous memory locations in the memory.

Below is the output of above Program in Compiler Code  Block with both values and address.

 

 

You can see the output of value with address in Hexadecimal Format.

 

Let’s understand with another Program by using Pointer and Array.

#include<stdio.h>

#include<stdlib.h>

 

int main() {

  int i[4] = {1, 2, 3, 4};

  int* p;

  p = &i[2];

  printf("value for pointer *p for position 3 = %d \n", *p);

  printf(" value for pointer *(p+1) for position 4 = %d \n", *(p+1));

  printf(" value for pointer *(p-1) for position 1 = %d", *(p-1));

 

  return 0;

}

Here pointer p is assigned the address of the third element as I used p = &i[2]; and we know array starts with 0 .  Here we use pointer to display the value as per position by using increment and decrement in printf for value.

Below is the output of above program in compiler Code block for your understanding.

Here you can see the value element is displayed by pointer by using array for elements.

 

Hope you are able to understand how to use Pointer in Array Program. Please read this blog carefully and try to write more programs by using Pointers in Array and let me know if you have any doubts. Play with Pointer and Array as much as you can. In next blog I will come up with next topic.

 

Thanks

SQL and Classification of SQL in Oracle Database #Diksha Oracle Training Centre

  SQL and Classification of SQL in Oracle Database.   SQL is Structured Query Language , which is used for storing, manipulating and retrieving data stored in a relational database .SQL is the standard language for RDBMS. All the Relational Database Management Systems (RDMS) like Oracle, MySQL, Sybase, Informix, IBM DB2 and Microsoft SQL Server use SQL as their standard database language. Oracle is one of the more secured database as compared to other databases. Importance of   SQL : SQL and PL/SQL is a backend process where all data is stored and retrieved in GUI which created either by any programming languages like Java, C++, PHP etc. so we need to have very secure database so that there will be no impact for users. SQL allows users to access data in the relational database management systems. SQL is used to communicate with a database.SQL and PL/SQL allows users to create and drop databases tables , views , stored procedures , functions , packages , trigger etc. SQL allows

Materialized View uses and Benefits in Database #DOTC_Mdb

Materialized View uses and Benefits in Database. Hello Everyone, Today we will discuss about Materialized view as it’s play important role in database. We already discussed about Simple Views and complex views in my previous blog. Before Materialized view go through my previous blog which related to simple view. https://dheeraj60.blogspot.com/2020/05/benefits-of-creating-and-using-view-in.html As we know View is not a database object and not like table which is stored in database, but view can be created from base table a view is an SQL statement that’s stored in the database. This statement, or view, has a name.A view looks and acts a lot like a table. It has columns and rows, and can be included in SELECT queries just like a table. In other word we can say View is a virtual/logical table which is basically used for security purpose. Let’s understand   about   Materialized view : A materialized view is a view that stores the results of the view’s query. Whenever you query the ma

Top 50 Interview Questions On SQL and PL/SQL #DOTC_Mdb

                    Top 50 Interview Questions On SQL and PL/SQL. Today we will Discuss Top 50 interview questions and answers of SQL and PL/SQL which is frequently asked in interview.     Question 1: What is SQL and Classification of SQL? Answer SQL is a Structure Query Language which is vastly used in RDBMS database like Oracle, Sybase, DB2 , Microsoft SQL server etc.   Classification of SQL is as below: DDL (Data Definition Language):  Commands are  create , alter , drop , truncate etc DML (Data Manipulation Language) : Commands are  insert,update and delete . TCL (Transaction Control Language ) : Commands are  Commit , Rollback and Save point. DCL (Data Control Language) : Commands are Grant , Revoke Question 2:    What is meant by Joins? What are the types of join? Answer Joins are basically used to extract/get data from multiple tables using some common columns or conditions and also by using alias to fulfill the condition.   There are various types of Joins as li
