Pointer Addition–Sum of elements of array with pointers

[anupam]

#include<stdio.h>

main()

{

     int a[5],sum=0,i;

     int *p,j;

     for ( i =0; i<5; i++)

     {

     printf(“Enter number:”);

     scanf(“%d”,&a);

     }

     // Normal Way of addition

     for (i=0;i<5;i++)

     {

          sum= sum + a;

     }

     printf(“nTotal sum is=%d”,sum);

         

         // With Pointers //

 

     sum=0;

     for (i=0;i<5;i++)

     {

          p=&a; // p holds the address of a

          sum=sum + *p; // *p holds the contents of a

     }

     printf(“nTotal sum is=%d”,sum);

     getch();

    

}

 

Output:

Enter number:56

Enter number:55

Enter number:88

Enter number:88

Enter number:55

 

Total sum is=342

Total sum is=342
