C中＆（char *）的数据类型是什么？

Question

Suppose I have

char *t = "XX";

I am wondering what is the type of &t. Is it char or array?

Answer 1

由于t是指针， &t是指向指针的指针。

Answer 2

The type of &t for any expression is a pointer to the type of t . In this case the type of t is char* hence the the type of &t is char**

Answer 3

You need to know what a pointer is and who does it works.

TYPE * VAR = VALUE;

Here you have:

• TYPE : the type of data that you are storing
• * : means it is a pointer of TYPE
• VAR : is the variable that store a pointer of TYPE
• VALUE : value of TYPE

And &VAR is a pointer to VAR . In your case VAR is a pointer also, so &VAR is a pointer to a pointer .
