What does static variable mean
What does static variable mean? There are 3 main uses for static variables: If you declare within a function, it retains the value between function calls. If it is declared for a function name, by default function is extern. So it will be visible from other files. If the function declaration is as s... 2007-02-26, 6691👍, 0💬

Storage Classes
What are the different storage classes in C? C has three types of storage: automatic, static and allocated. Variable having block scope and without static specifier have automatic storage duration. Variables with block scope, and with static specifier have static scope. Global variables (i.e, file s... 2007-02-26, 6586👍, 0💬

Strings vs. Character Arrays
What is the difference between strings and character arrays? A major difference is: string will have static storage duration, whereas as a character array will not, unless it is explicity specified by using the static keyword. Actually, a string is a character array with following properties: * the ... 2007-02-26, 6379👍, 0💬

Multi-dimension Arrays
Write down the equivalent pointer expression for referring the same element a[i][j][k][l]? a[i] == *(a+i) a[i][j] == *(*(a+i)+j) a[i][j][k] == *(*(*(a+i)+j)+k) a[i][j][k][l] == *(*(*(*(a+i)+j)+k)+l) 2007-02-26, 6241👍, 0💬
