Answer / gouse mohiddin
A Pointer is a variable which holds the memory address of
the another variable
pointers are used to save and find the memory address of
the another variable.
The syntax is as shown below. You start by specifying the
type of data stored in the location identified by the
pointer. The asterisk tells the compiler that you are
creating a pointer variable. Finally you give the name of
the variable.
type * variable name
Example:
int *ptr;
float *string;
Address operator:
Once we declare a pointer variable we must point it to
something we can do this by assigning to the pointer the
address of the variable you want to point as in the
following example:
ptr=#
This places the address where num is stores into the
variable ptr. If num is stored in memory 21260 address then
the variable ptr has the value 21260.

simple program for virtual function?
In cryptography, you could often break the algorithm if you know what was the original (plain) text that was encoded into the current ciphertext. This is called the plain text attack. In this simple problem, we illustrate the plain text attack on a simple substitution cipher encryption, where you know each letter has been substituted with a different letter from the alphabet but you don’t know what that letter is. You are given the cipherText as the input string to the function getwordSets(). You know that a plain text "AMMUNITION" occurs somewhere in this cipher text. Now, you have to find out which sets of characters corresponds to the encrypted form of the "AMMUNITION". You can assume that the encryption follows simple substitution only. [Hint: You could use the pattern in the "AMMUNITION" like MM occurring twice together to identify this]
