address can be changed ,where as the content/value in that
address cannot be changed).
In the later case it is a constant pointer (i.e the address
cannot be changed ,where as the content/value in that
address can be changed).

Answer / vignesh1988i

as for as i know.....

1) const char * :
here the character pointer is a constant which can point to
oly one character type memory location throught the program.

2) char * const :
hrere the pointer is not a constant , the character variable
used after it will be constant.. in that variable we cant
make any changes... but in pointer we can make


thank you

Question 1: You want to conduct a survey within your classroom, on the quality of canteen’s food. You ask each of your class fellows to rank the quality of food between 1 and 5 (1 representing excellent quality and 5 representing worst quality). During the survey, you make a list containing the roll# of student and the opinion given by that student. The list can be as follow Roll # Opinion 234 1 235 1 236 5 237 1 238 2 239 3 240 5 241 5 242 1 To get the results of the survey, you need to determine the frequency of each opinion value. The frequency of an opinion is determined by counting the number of students giving that opinion. For example, for the above list the frequency of opinion value 1 is 4 and frequency of opinion value 4 is 0. After getting the frequency of each opinion, you can easily judge about the quality of the food by seeing through the frequency of each opinion. You need to develop a program to calculate the results of this survey. The program inputs the opinion of 50 students and counts the frequency of each opinion. It then displays a report showing the frequency of each opinion. Sample output: Opinion Frequency Remarks 1 5 Excellent 2 10 Good 3 15 Normal 4 10 Bad 5 10 Really bad
