Character pointers and integer pointers (++)

Question

I have two pointers,

char *str1;
int *str2;

If I look at the size of both the pointers let’s assume

str1=4 bytes
str2=4 byt         


        

Answer 1

Simple, in the provided scenario:

• char is 1 byte long
• int (in your platform) is 4 bytes long

The ++ operator increments the pointer by the size of the pointed type.
