Problem 1 – arrays and pointers (4 = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 marks)
Consider the following declarations and definitions
int temperature[7][30];
char *months[] = {"January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July"};
1. Write statements to initialize all elements of temperature to 15:
for (int i = 0; i < 7; i++)
for (int j = 0; j < 30; j++)
temprature[i][j] = 15;
2. Write statements to assign 1 to the element temperature[3][10] using pointer arithmetics (that is,
not allow to use subscript “[·]”. Use parentheses to make clear the order of evaluation, if necessary.
*(*(temprature + 3) + 10) = 1;
3. What is the exact value that *(months[3] + 2) has?
r
4. What is the exact value that *(months + 4) has?
"May"
