char (*funcp(int));
1. pointer to a constant means you can not change what the pointer points to 2. constant pointer means you can not change the pointer.
Double (**) is used to denote the double pointer. As we know the pointer stores the address of variable, Double pointer stores the address of any pointer variable. Declaration : int **ptr2Ptr;
In some programming languages, like C, you can pass the new method (or function) an address pointer to the first element in the array. As long as you don't leave the scope of the method the array was created in, the array will remain valid. In other languages that don't support memory addresses, like FORTRAN, it must be done by making the array global.
When we increment the pointer its value is increased by the length of the data type that it points to.
Yes, see the C99 ISO standard §6.5.2.1/2. Assuming a pointer "a" into an allocated array, a[-1] is equivalent to *(a - 1). Naturally, if (a - 1) points to an unallocated memory location, you get undefined behavior.
// declare a function int* function(int, int); or int* (function)(int, int); // declare a pointer to a function int* (*pointer_to_function)(int, int);
*function();this declares a pointer function!
function pointer is a variable that hold the address of any function which declared in the program but function pointer is the array of the function that accept the run time size of the function.
A pointer to a function is the memory address that stores the address of a function, while the pointer itself is a function pointer.A pointer to a function might be defined as "int (*pf)(int, int);", while to actually point to the function, you would use a function pointer, such as "pf = &func;".
A static function is a member function that is not associated with any instance of the class; it has no this pointer.

The function ftell returns the position of the file pointer for a file.
Example: int x; -- integer int *px= &x; -- pointer to integer int **ppx= &px; -- pointer to pointer to integer int ***pppx= &ppx; -- pointer to pointer to pointer to integer
A function f() will can be defined as returning a pointer to a character with the syntax char *f() { } One must be careful in creating these functions that the character pointer is set to point to a static variable or an allocated string; an automatic variable will vanish when the function exits, leaving the pointer invalid. I should point out that this is very basic C syntax. If this question is being asked as part of a school assignment, I must suggest that perhaps you should drop this course now, as it will be immeasurably harder as you get further into it.
Usable. A prominent example is param argv of function main.
In C++, parameters are variables declared in the function's declaration and definition that receive values passed in from the function call. They are used to pass values or data into a function to be used within the function's code. Parameters allow functions to be more flexible and reusable by accepting different inputs without needing to modify the function's code.
