Answer / abhay3023
The first obvious difference is char pointer will store address of character variable and same way integer pointer will store address of integer variable.
But the main difference you will feel when do increment on both these pointers, integer pointer will get incremented by 4 bytes and character pointer will get incremented by 1 bytes.

Answer / k vishwanath pillay
While declaring Pointer for an Integer value, we assign a
default size i.e 4 byte of memory for the Integer variable.
But in the case of char by default it assigns 1 byte of
memory for that character variable.
The type of declaration is the same for both.
Char a[5], *p; // for char variable
int *i; // for Int variable
