Answer Posted / vignesh1988i
surely there is some difference.....
here 'a' is represented as array in which string gets stored
in consecutive locations......
p is a pointer variable where string is initilized... so in
p the base address of "literal " will get stored......
*p++ increments 'p' , but pertaining to some conditions.....
++ has more precedence than * , so first it will increment
the address and correspondingly it will show the value as *
precedes..... so after the increment the p points to 'i'...
thank u
