Pointers

Pointers are one of the core components of the C programming language. A pointer can be used to store the memory address of other variables, functions, or even other pointers. The use of pointers allows low-level memory access, dynamic memory allocation, and many other functionality in C.


What is a Pointer in C?
A pointer is defined as a derived data type that can store the address of other C variables or a memory location. We can access and manipulate the data stored in that memory location using pointers.


Syntax of C Pointers
The syntax of pointers is similar to the variable declaration in C, but we use the ( * ) dereferencing operator in the pointer declaration.
datatype * ptr;

 26 day  Call a Function Declared functions are not executed immediately. They are "saved for later use", and will be executed when they are called. To call a function, write the function's name followed by two parentheses () and a semicolon ; In the following example, myFunction() is used to print a text (the action), when it is called: Example Inside main, call myFunction(): // Create a function void myFunction() {   printf("I just got executed!"); } int main() {   myFunction(); // call the function   return 0; }

 42 day  C Structures The structure in C is a user-defined data type that can be used to group items of possibly different types into a single type. The struct keyword is used to define the structure in the C programming language. The items in the structure are called its member and they can be of any valid data type. Additionally, the values of a structure are stored in contiguous memory locations. Syntax struct structure_name {     data_type member_name1;     data_type member_name1;     ....     .... };

 11 day We will learn today Decision making refers to the process of evaluating alternatives and selecting a course of action based on the analysis of information, estimation of probabilities, and assigning values to anticipated outcomes. It involves making choices among different options and can be influenced by factors such as speed, accuracy, and uncertainty. Improvement in decision making can be achieved through the design of support systems, the use of decision tools, and appropriate training. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaA3UfCqxMU&list=PLfgCIULRQavzxY-IO2sO5Vj5x7C_tjW3R&index=9
