SYS Prog 2 1

The laboratory report describes experiments conducted on C++ programs using references and pointers. Three programs are presented: 1. A program demonstrating reference and dereference operators in pointers by printing the address and value of an integer variable. 2. A program showing the difference between call by value and call by reference by passing an integer to a function and observing the effect of modifications inside the function. 3. A program changing the value pointed to by a pointer by assigning a new value through the pointer and verifying it updated the original variable. The aim of developing and executing these programs was achieved as the desired output was obtained for all programs.

DEVELOPE AND PRACTICE C++ APPLICATION PROGRAMS USING REFERENCES POINTERS


AIM/OBJECTIVE: To write and execute C++ programs to demonstrate the use of Reference and Pointers
SOFTWARE USED: Online C++ Compiler
PROGRAMS:
1. Write a C++ program signifying reference and de-reference operators in pointers:-

//RA2311043010081
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int a = 10;
int* pt;
pt = &a;
cout << "The address where a is stored is: " << pt<< endl;
cout << "The value stored at the address by dereferencing the pointer is: "<< *pt << endl;
}

OUTPUT:

2. Write C++ program to demonstrate the difference between call by value and call by reference:-

//RA2311043010081
#include <iostream>
// Function to demonstrate call by value
void callByValue(int x)
{
std::cout << "Inside callByValue function\n";
std::cout << "Original value of x: " << x << "\n";
// Modifying the value of x inside the function
x = 20;
std::cout << "Value of x after modification inside callByValue: " << x << "\n";
}
// Function to demonstrate call by reference
void callByReference(int &y)
{
std::cout << "Inside callByReference function\n";
std::cout << "Original value of y: " << y << "\n";
// Modifying the value of y inside the function
y = 30;
std::cout << "Value of y after modification inside callByReference: " << y << "\n";
}
int main() {
// Demonstrate call by value
int num1 = 10;
std::cout << "Before calling callByValue, num1: " << num1 << "\n";
callByValue(num1);
std::cout << "Value of num1 after calling callByValue: " << num1 << "\n";
// Demonstrate call by reference
int num2 = 15;
std::cout << "Before calling callByReference, num2: " << num2 << "\n";
callByReference(num2);
std::cout << "Value of num2 after calling callByReference: " << num2 << "\n";
return 0;
}

OUTPUT:

3. Write a program to demonstrate changing the value pointed by pointers :-


//RA2311043010081
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
// Declare a variable
int originalValue = 10;
// Declare a pointer and initialize it to the address of the variable
int* pointerToValue = &originalValue;
// Display the original value and the value through the pointer
std::cout << "Original Value: " << originalValue << "\n";
std::cout << "Value through Pointer: " << *pointerToValue << "\n\n";
// Change the value through the pointer
*pointerToValue = 20;
// Display the updated values
std::cout << "Original Value after change: " << originalValue << "\n";
std::cout << "Value through Pointer after change: " << *pointerToValue << "\n";
return 0;
}

OUTPUT:
RESULT:
The Programs on Reference and Pointers were executed and desired output was obtained.
