Simple Program for Increment and Decrement Floating Point using...

About this program

This is an example program in c pointer example programs. Read the concept first: C Pointers, then study the code and output below.

Declartion Syntax

(*pt)++; //Pointer Post Increment
++(*pt); //Pointer Pre Increment
(*pt)--; //Pointer Post Decrement
--(*pt); //Pointer Pre Decrement

Simple Program for Increment and Decrement Float Using Pointer

/* Simple Program for Increment and Decrement Floating Point Using Pointer in C*/
/* Print Pointer Address Program,C Pointer Examples */

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
  float a;
  float *pt;

  printf("Pointer Example Program : Increment and Decrement Float\n");
  a = 10.01;
  pt = &a;

  (*pt)++; //Post float Increment
  printf("\n[a  ]:Increment Value of A = %f", a);

  ++(*pt); //Pre float Increment
  printf("\n[a  ]:Increment Value of A = %f", a);

  (*pt)--; //Post float Decrement
  printf("\n[a  ]:Decrement Value of A = %f", a);

  --(*pt); //Pre float Decrement
  printf("\n[a  ]:Decrement Value of A = %f", a);

  return 0;
}

Sample Output

Pointer Example Program : Increment and Decrement Float

[a  ]:Increment Value of A = 11.010000
[a  ]:Increment Value of A = 12.010000
[a  ]:Decrement Value of A = 11.010000
[a  ]:Decrement Value of A = 10.010000

How It Works

This C program demonstrates Simple Program for Increment and Decrement Floating Point using… It first prepares the data it needs, then performs the core operation step by step, and finally prints the output shown in the Sample Output above.

1. Declare the variables that hold the program’s data.
2. Print the final result to the console so you can compare it with the sample output.

Try changing the input values and re-running the program to see how the output changes — this is the fastest way to understand how the logic behaves.
