Thread: what the comparison does?

As pointers to int, I suppose. In what context did you see this code, or did you just come up with it yourself?

Which in this case is the address of the local variable created for this function, to which p is assigned inside this function call:

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
void func( int *p )
{
    printf( "%p, %p\n", (void*) p, (void*) &p );
}
int main( void )
{
    int x;
    int *p = &x;
    printf( "%p, %p\n", (void*) p, (void*) &p );
    func( p );
    
    return 0;
}
