Thread: Pointer type casting

I have a program like below

Code:

#include<stdio.h>

int main()
{
  int intVal = 10;
  short shVal;
  char chVal;

  char *pChar;


  pChar = (char *)&intVal;
//  pShort = &shVal;
//  pChar = &chVal;

//    intVal = 10;
//  *pShort = 20;
//  *pChar = 'q';

  printf("intVal %c \n",(int *)pChar);

  return 0;
}

Here my intention is to type cast the integer variable to a pointer and using that

pointer variable i want to display the value .

Can i know where am i missing..
