When the above code is compiled and executed, it produces the following result:

Array values using pointer

+ 1000.0
(p 0) : 00000
+ 2.0000
(p 1) : 00
+ 3.4000
(p 2) : 00
+ 17.000
Array values using balance as address
3) : 000
(p
+ 50.000
(p 4) : 000

*(ba + 1000.0
lance 0) : 00000
*(ba + 2.0000
lance 1) : 00
*(ba + 3.4000
lance 2) : 00
*(ba + 17.000
lance 3) : 000
*(ba + 50.000
lance 4) : 000
In the above example, p is a pointer to double, which means it can store the address of a
variable of double type. Once we have the address in p, *p will give us the value available at the
address stored in p, as we have shown in the above example.
