Q1: Introduce int variables x and y and int* pointer variables p and q. Set x to 2, y to 8,
p to the address of x, and q to the address of y. Then print the following information:
(1) The address of x and the value of x.
(2) The value of p and the value of *p.
(3) The address of y and the value of y.
(4) The value of q and the value of *q.
(5) The address of p (not its contents!).
(6) The address of q (not its contents!).
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q2: Introduce an array of five elements int a[5], and int based pointer variable p. And
using this pointer ‘p’ enter values: 32, 22, 3, 9 & 6 respectively in an array.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Q3: Write a program which will take ten values from the user. And the program should
display the average of those ten values. Should be done through pointers.
Hint: Arrays and Pointers can be used.

Q4: Input and Display the 3 x 3 matrix through pointers using 2D pointer
