++(*p)-> indicates increment the value pointed by pointer p.
(*p)++ -> indicates increment the address of p then retrieve
the value pointed to by p.

Answer / tejas
value that contained in p is incremented. (p is pointer.)
++(*p) --> pre-increment.
(*p)++ --> post-increment.

Answer / vikram
here,*is the value at address operater;
according to heirarchy of operators,*is given the first
preference and then ++;
++(*p) means first incrementation of value at address of p
takes place and then execution takes place;
on the other hand,(*p)++ means first execution takes place
and then value at address of p is incremented

Answer / manju
both increments the value not the address. but the
difference lies in post and pre increment..
for example
main()
{
int i=2,*p;
p=&i;
}
when (*p)++ is given the o/p will be 2.
and in next line the value is incremented. in ++(*p)
the value is 3 since it is post

Answer / alok kumar
++(*p) :- means that first increment the value of that variable which address holds p .than any operation will perform. ex:- int a=10;int *p; p=&a;
int c=++(*p);printf("%d,%d",c,*p);out put:-11 , 11 .
(*p)++ :- means that first assign the value than increment the value by 1. ex:- int a=10;int *p; p=&a;
int c=(*p)++;printf("%d,%d",c,*p);out put:-10 , 11 .

Differentiate between ordinary variable and pointer in c.
what is data structure?
what is the output for the code : main() { int i,j; printf("%d %d ",scanf("%d%d",&i,&j)); }
Differentiate between a for loop and a while loop? What are it uses?

Explain the differences between public, protected, private and internal.
plz answer.... write a program that reads line (using getline) e.g."345", converts each line to an integer using "atoi" and computes the average of all the numbers read. also compute the standard deviation.
Given only putchar (no sprintf, itoa, etc.) write a routine putlong that prints out an unsigned long in decimal. [ I gave the obvious solution of taking % 10 and / 10, which gives us the decimal value in reverse order. This requires an array since we need to print it out in the correct order. The interviewer wasn't too pleased and asked me to give a solution which didn't need the array ].
