Thread: Does pointer qtr hold the same or new memory in every function call

You don't need the extra indirection.

Code:

void modify( struct node *dsptr)
{
    dsptr->x = 42;
    dsptr->y = 'Q';
}
 
int main(void)
{
    struct node *sptr = malloc (sizeof(struct node));
    printf(" sptr store at location : %p \n", &sptr);  
    printf(" value of sptr = %p \n", sptr);   
    sptr -> x = 1;         
    sptr -> y = 'A';
     
    printf(" value of first object of structure = %d \n",  sptr -> x);
    printf(" value of second object of structure = %c \n",  sptr -> y);
     
    modify(sptr);
     
    return 0;
}
