Answer Posted / vignesh1988i

d) is the wrong choice...... because , first variable pa
refers to a address of the array... * of that pa will give
you the first value of the array.. ie a[0] , then that value
will be getting added with 5 and the * which is outside wont
have any value towards this manuplation...... so this will
show an error...... illegal use of pointers.....

thank u
