Part 1

I entered the following code on the Windows machine and Run the program 4 times by changing int to float, char and double. I was not able to log on to the Linux server. I tried what the lecturer had indicated the previous day but i was unsucessful.I took the tutors help and I was eventually able to log on.

	int *ip;
	printf("%d\n", sizeof(ip));

Windows	Linux
char=4	char=4
int=4	int=4
float=4	float=4
double=4	double=4

Part 2

• This was my code to print out the address of x and y:

 	int x, y; 
	printf("&x=%p, &y=%p, diff=%ld\n", &x,&y, (long)(&x-&y));

Windows	Linux
&x=0029FB48	&x=oxffb8a73c
&y=0029FB3C	&y=oxffb8a738
diff=3	diff=1

• To find the difference between (long)&x and (long)&y:

 	int x, y;

	printf("&x=%p, &y=%p, diff=%ld\n", &x,&y, ((long)&x-(long)&y));

Windows	Linux
&x=0027FAF0	&x=oxffeba73c
&y=0027FAE4	&y=oxffeba738
diff=12	diff=12

Part 3

• Code for size of an array:

	int x;
	char arr[4];
	int y;

	printf("Size of array=%d\n", sizeof(arr));

Windows	Linux
Array size=4	Array size=4

• To find out the address of the array:

 	int x;
	char arr[4];
	int y;

	printf("&arr=%p\n", &arr);

Windows	Linux
&arr = 0023F820	&arr = 0xffb73734

• For value of &arr[4]:

	int x;
	char arr[4];
	int y;

	printf("&arr[4]=%p\n", &(arr[4]));

Windows	Linux
&arr[4] = 001DFB4C	&arr[4] = 0xffb8d738

• Difference between &x and &y, value of arr and arr+4 :

       int x;
	char arr[10];
	int y;

	printf("diff=%ld\n", (long)(&x-&y) );
       printf("arr=%p, arr+4=%p\n", arr, arr+4 );

Windows	Linux
diff = 8	diff = 1
arr = 0013F8E0	arr = 0xff82a732
arr+4 = 0013F8E4	arr+4 = 0xff82a736

• Code for the last part of question three:

 	int x;
	char arr[4];
	int y;
 	 
        x = 0;
        y = 0;
        arr[4] = 10;
 	
       printf("x=%d, y=%d\n", x, y );

Windows	Linux
x=0	y=0

This result is surprising as according to the tutors, i was not meant to get 'x=0 and y=0' as my answer as there is an array in between. I tried Debugging and running again but i got (0,0) everytime.

Part 4

• Repeating above but declaring x and y as global variables:

#include <stdio.h>

int x;
int y;

int main(void)
{

	char arr[4]={10};
	
	printf("x=%d,y=%d\n",&x,&y );
	 
	return 0;
}

Windows	Linux
&x = 1536360	&x = 268503616
&y = 1536356	&y = 268503620

Part 5

• Entered the following code to find values of p1 and p2:

int *p1,*p2;
{int q; p1=&q;}
{int r; p2=&r;}

printf("p1=%d, p2=%d\n", p1, p2);

Windows	Linux
p1 = 1703120	p1 = - 6465740
p2 = 1703108	p2 = -6465740

At this point, Microsoft Visual Studio stopped responding. I restarted the application several times but yet it failed to respond. I tried opening TextPad but that failed too. So as of now, although I have a lot of work in front of me, I'm not able to progress as neither of the applications are working...

Right, so I'm still waiting...Neither of them are opening. It's almost 12.00pm...Hope this starts soon. I have 5 more questions to complete.

I called the tutor but he said he could npt diagnose the problem. So I restarted the computer and yet nothign worked. Thus, i was sittign idle for around 20 minutes trying to make things work. Time was up so I decided to abandon it and continue at home.

• At home now and gettign on with Part 6...
