Answer / steve
I think there is no difference.
Also,
Case 1:
int* x,y,z;
and
Case2:
int *x,y,z;
these two cases are exactly same.
In both cases, y and z are not pointers. They are int.

Answer / gopinath das
All the above answers are wrong.
There is no difference between int *x and int* x;
Also there is no agreement on waht is the best practice. It
depends on the organizations coding standard.
Even we can write int*x. But this is not a good practice.

NO difference
Case 1:
int* x,y,z;
and
Case2:
int *x,y,z;
these two cases are also exactly same.

Answer / uma sankar pradhan
There is no difference between int* x and int *x
Because in C,the number of spaces between two literals
doesnot mean anything.
example,
a+b is same as a + b or a+ b or a +b

Answer / foo
The difference is that in the first case the space is after
the * and in the second case the space is before.
Functionally there is no difference.
Arguably int* x is slightly worse since (as other answers
demonstrate) people can misinterpret "int* i, j" as
declaring two pointers-to-int where "int *i, j" is perhaps a
bit clearer.
Practically, you should adopt whatever style is required by
wherever you work or whomever you work with.

Answer / debendra nath tiwary
there is no difference between them here.
but difference comes how we use them.
(int*) can be used for typecasting.
(int *x) is used for declaration purpose. here x is declared as pointer variable.
even if declare like (int* x) is valid but not a formal way to
to declare pointer variable.

Assume an array of structure is in order by studentID field of the record, where student IDs go from 101 to 500. Write the most efficient pseudocode algorithm you can to find the record with a specific studentID if every single student ID from 101 to 500 is used and the array has 400 elements. Write the most efficient pseudocode algorithm you can to find a record with a studentID near the end of the IDs, say in the range from 450 to 500, if not every single student ID in the range of 101 to 500 is used and the array size is only 300
