@ monish : Beta monish welcum to algogeeks..... they are not same ..
reason: arr is the base address of array , i.e the address of first int wheras &arr is the address of( array of ints) , they happen to be same but they are nt.. nw consider the array 1 2 3 4 5 suppose array starting address is 6036 so "arr" contains 6036 (as base address) "&arr" contains 6036 (as address of array of ints) now consider arr+ 1 --> this give 6036 + 4 =6040 (for 32 bit ) consider &arr+1 ---> this will give address of next array of 5 ints i .e , 6056.. am i clear?
