Question
Chapter 12, Problem 1TF
a.
In C++, pointer is not a reserved word. Hence, the given statement is “False”.
Program Plan Intro
Pointer variables contain the addresses of other variables as their values. In C++, no name is associated with the pointer data type.
Expert Solution & Answer
Program Description Answer
In C++, pointer is not a reserved word. Hence, the given statement is “False”.
Explanation of Solution
Pointer variables contain the addresses of other variables as their values. Pointer is a concept and hence not a reserved word.

In C++ what is a pointer and what symbols are associated with pointers? When would you use pointers in a program?
Month Day Calculator in C
Using basic concepts of Pointers and Structures (Pointers and Multi-dimensional arrays), create a C program that calculates the month's day from a given year and year's day. Use pointers for the month and month's day variables. Don't forget to add proper errors handling in your program.
- Follow the instructions below for handling error.
- Invalid Input- Invalid year- Invalid year day
Modify the provided monthAndDay.c class file to receive the parameters in the way and also print the proper formatted output.
Example:
# ./month_day <year> <yearday>
# Example for Feb 2nd, 2019:\$ ./month-day 2019 33Feb 02, 2019
class- monthAndDay.c -
#include <stdio.h>
/* monthAndDay function's prototype*/void monthAndDay(int year, int yearday, int *pmonth, int *pday);
int main() {return 0;}
Define the term pointer variables.

- pointers as Arguments:In the C programming language there is no pass-by-reference syntax to passa variable by reference to a function. Instead a variable is passed by pointer(just to be confusing, sometimes passing by pointer is referred to as pass byreference). This Practice Program asks you to do the same thing as C.Here is the header for a function that takes as input a pointer to an integer:1. void addOne (int ∗ptrNum )Complete the function so it adds one to the integer referenced by ptrNum.Write a main function where an integer variable is defined, give it an initialvalue, call addOne, and output the variable. It should be incremented by 1.arrow_forwardC++ Define a problem with user input, user output, Pointers, and Pointer Arithmetic.
