Passing a pointer across functions does not create any problem and doesn't
cause memory leak. but passing an array ,for eg
int *fun()
{
int a[12];
return a;
}
this creates memory leak as the call stack no more holds the array. So, in
essence, though int *a and int a[] behave quite similarly on
I guess I got that.
(&a + 1) increments the pointer to the array(&a here) according to the size
of array where as p, being a pointer to an int gets incremented by the size
of int(4 byte in 32 bit compiler) with the statement p = p+1
Correct me if i am wrong.

You received this message becaus
#include
int main()
{
int a[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};
int *p = &a;
p=p+1;;
printf("%d",*(p));
getch();
return 0;
}
After p=p+1, p should point to the next byte after 5, but output in this
case 2. That is p is just travelling inside the array. Is thr any diff b/w
incrementing whi
