Let us see another example to better understand the use of pointers

Let us see another example to better understand the use of pointers:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

int main()
{

char strg[40], *there, one, two;
int *pt, list[100], index;

strcpy(strg, "This is a character string.");

/* the function strcpy() is to copy one string to another. we’ll read about strcpy() function in String Section later */

one = strg[0]; /* one and two are identical */
two = *strg;

printf("The first output is %c %c\n", one, two);

one = strg[8]; /* one and two are identical */
two = *(strg+8);

printf("The second output is %c %c\n", one, two);

there = strg+10; /* strg+10 is identical to &strg[10] */

printf("The third output is %c\n", strg[10]);
printf("The fourth output is %c\n", *there);

for (index = 0 ; index < 100 ; index++)

list[index] = index + 100;
pt = list + 27;

printf("The fifth output is %d\n", list[27]);
printf("The sixth output is %d\n", *pt);

return 0;
}

The output of the program will be like this:
