Explanation of Solution
The program execution is explained in the in-lined comments:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
//declare variables dec1, dec2 and initialize
double dec1 = 2.5;
double dec2 = 3.8;
//declare double pointers p and q
double *p, *q;
//assign the address of variable dec1 to p
p = &dec1;
//assign the value of dec2 - dec1 to the memory
//location pointed to by p which is dec1
//so dec1 now holds the value (3.8-2.5 =) 1.3
*p = dec2 - dec1;
//q is assigned the value of p so both the pointers
//now point to variable dec1
q = p;
//content of the memory location pointed to by q
//is assigned 10.00 so dec1 holds the value 10.0
*q = 10.0;
//the contents of the memory location pointed to by p
//i.e dec1 is assigned the value of the RHS expression
//RHS = 2 &*#x00A0;10 + 10...

C++ Programming: From Problem Analysis to Program Design
- 1 Write a C++ program to calculate a rectangle's area. The program consists of the following function: • getLength This function should ask the user to enter the rectangle's length, and then returns that value as a double • getWidth - This function should ask the user to enter the rectangle's width, and then returns that value as a double. getArea – This function should accept the rectangle's length and width as arguments and return the rectangle's area. • displayData – This function should accept the rectangle's length, width and area as arguments, and display them in an appropriate message on the screen. main – This function consists of calls to the above functions.arrow_forwardC++ Write a program that takes as input an arithmetic expression followed by a semicolon ;. The program outputs whether the expression contains matching grouping symbols. For example, the arithmetic expressions {25 + (3 – 6) * 8} and 7 + 8 * 2 contains matching grouping symbols. However, the expression 5 + {(13 + 7) / 8 - 2 * 9 does not contain matching grouping symbols. If the expression contains matching grouping symbols, the program output should contain the following text: Expression has matching grouping symbol If the expression does not contain matching grouping symbols, the program output should contain the following text: Expression does not have matching grouping symbols.arrow_forwardAsaparrow_forward
