Why ‘&’ operator is not used with array names in a scanf statement? |
|
Answer» In scanf() statement, the “address of” operator (&) either on the element of the array (e.g marks[i]) or on the variables (e.g &rate) are used. In doing so, the address of this particular array element is passed to the scanf() function, rather then its value; which is what scanf() requires. BUT many times the address of zeroth element (also called as base address) can be passed by just passing the name of the array. |
