Question

Will the three memory addresses displayed by the following program all be the same? Explain what's going on in the code.
#include <iostream> using namespace std;
int main ( ) { int a = 10; int& b = a; int* c = &b;

cout << &a << endl; cout << &b << endl; cout << &(*c) << endl;

return 0; } Will the three memory addresses displayed by the following program all be the same? Explain what's going on in the code.
#include <iostream> using namespace std;
int main ( ) { int a = 10; int& b = a; int* c = &b;

cout << &a << endl; cout << &b << endl; cout << &(*c) << endl;

return 0; }
#include <iostream> using namespace std;
int main ( ) { int a = 10; int& b = a; int* c = &b;

cout << &a << endl; cout << &b << endl; cout << &(*c) << endl;

return 0; }

Explanation / Answer

#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(){
   int a = 10; // declaring a variable 'a' and initializing with value 10
  
   int &b = a; // declaring a refrence variable of a, means b is alias of a, both denotes the same
  
   int *c = &b; // declaring a int pointer 'c', initializing with address of b
               // means *a(dereference), b, c are same
              
   // so they are pointing to same value, stored at location, hence following program will print same memory location
   cout<<&a<<endl;
   cout<<&b<<endl;
   cout<<&(*c)<<endl;
  
   return 0;
}
