First output will print some garbage value because you
delete the object p and the you print.
The second one will print value 60.

There will be an error because its "del" instead of "delete".
In this particular program, you might actually get away with
using p after delete, but lets look what happens here :
int *p=new int;
*p=10;
cout << "ADDRESS OF P is " << p << endl;
delete p;
int * x= new int(3);
cout << "ADDRESS OF X=" << *x << " is " << x << endl;
*p = 10; //We think we got away with deleting p so why not
//still use it!
cout << "VALUE OF X : " << *x; //Here is why...
now, though its basically a policy of compiler, here is what
probably WILL happen in the output (memory addresses are
exemplary):
ADDRESS OF P is 0x272740
ADDRESS OF X=3 is 0x272740
VALUE OF X : 10
Now this is totally NOT what we would like our program to
do, and this is because though delete WILL mostly call
objects destructors and sometimes even clear memory, but p
is STILL pointing to that location, to which compiler
assumes it is safe to allocate variable x!
So now we end up having ONE memory storage and two pointers
p and x pointing to it.
This is why though it will not crash your compilation and
probably you can get away with no runtime errors, this leads
to serious troubles and as a rule NEVER use pointers after
you deleted their storage.

Answer / hemang
There will be error because del is used instead of delete. in c++ delete is the keyword not del. delete is used to delete an object.
So program will not run....

Answer / anu
I think error will come bcoz memory allocated to *P is
already deleted d it will point to nowhere now....
