Answer / susie

Answer :

1. 'const' applies to char * rather than 'a' ( pointer to a
constant char )

*a='F' : illegal

a="Hi" : legal

2. 'const' applies to 'a' rather than to the value of
a (constant pointer to char )

*a='F' : legal

a="Hi" : illegal

3. Same as 1.

Answer / srinivas

The answers for first and third case is fine,but in 2nd
case we cannot assign *a='F',becoz *a points to starting
address of the array you cannot change the value at that
address where the reference to that pointer is lost.
