What will be the output of the program?
#include<stdio.h>
void fun(int*, int*);
int main()
{
int i=5, j=2;
fun(&i, &j);
printf("%d, %d", i, j);
return 0;
}
void fun(int *i, int *j)
{
*i = *i**i;
*j = *j**j;
}
Step 1: int i=5, j=2; Here variable i and j are declared as an integer type and
initialized to 5 and 2 respectively.
Step 2: fun(&i, &j); Here the function fun() is called with two parameters &i and
&j (The & denotes call by reference. So the address of the variable i and j are passed. )
Step 3: void fun(int *i, int *j) This function is called by reference, so we have to use
* before the parameters.
Step 4: *i = *i**i; Here *i denotes the value of the variable i. We are multiplying 5*5 and
storing the result 25 in same variable i.
Step 5: *j = *j**j; Here *j denotes the value of the variable j. We are multiplying 2*2 and
storing the result 4 in same variable j.
Step 6: Then the function void fun(int *i, int *j) return back the control back to main()function.
Step 7: printf("%d, %d", i, j); It prints the value of variable i and j.
Hence the output is 25, 4.
