Thread: Reading particular memory location ?

Hi members,
Now a days i was working on a program and i made a big move in it. Now the last stage is that i came up with a memory address and i wanna read the content at that particular address.. I have got the memory location and i simply made a "long int" variable and tried to read that memory location but error in program. Here is my source code.

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
     long int *a;
     a=58112;
     printf("%ld",*(58112));
     getchar();
     return 0;
}

I think that we can't assign a constant to a pointer. Am I right ? If yes then please tell me how can i read this particular memory location.Alll suggestions are welcomed.

With love
REAL NAPSTER
