Reason for the Output

Hi,

Can you please explain me the output of this code开发者_如何转开发 snippet? The answer is "d"

void main()
{
short int a=5;
clrscr();
printf("%d"+1,a);
getch();
}

Thanks.

"%d" + 1 is a pointer to "d", so in fact you are executing printf( "d", a );.

---

"%d"+1 is "d", therefore the output will be "d".

Question a part...

Why didn't the writer simply used:

printf("d");

Is it the same?
