Chapter 10.12, Problem 10.20CP
Program Plan Intro
Pointer:
Pointer is a special type of variable to store the address of the memory location, which can be accessed later.
- If an asterisk “*” operator is present before the variable, then that variable is referred as pointer variable.
- It is also called as dereferencing or indirection operator.
- Pointer is just a type of variable that stores the addresses of other variables.
- Using pointers, the address of a variable can be accessed and the data stored in that variable can be retrieved.
Syntax of pointer variable declaration:
<variable-type> *<variable-name>;
Usage of pointers to structures:
The usage of pointers to structure is same as declaring a pointer variable.

11.7: Customer AccountsWrite a program that uses a structure to store the following data about a customer account: Customer name Customer address City State ZIP code Telephone Account balance Date of last payment
The program should use an array of at least 20 structures. It should let the user enter data into the array, change the contents of any element, and display all the data stored in the array. The program should have a menu-driven user interface.
Prompts And Output Labels. Your main menu should be the following: 1. Enter new account information 2. Change account information 3. Display all account information 4. Exit the programThe user is expected to enter 1 or 2 or 3 or 4.The main menu is displayed at the start of the program and after the handling of choices 1, 2 and 3.If 1 is entered for the main menu, the program prompts for each of the data listed above, in the order listed above, using the above data…

The computer ‘hides’ the treasure at a random location in a 10x10 matrix. The user guesses the location by entering a row and column values. The game ends when the user locates the treasure or the treasure value is less than or equal to zero. Guesses in the wrong location will provide clues such as a compass direction or number of squares horizontally or vertically to the treasure. Using the random number generator, display one of the following in the board where the player made their guess: U# Treasure is up ‘#’ on the vertical axis (where # represents an integer number). D# Treasure is down ‘#’ on the vertical axis (where # represents an integer number) || Treasure is in this row, not up or down from the guess location. -> Treasure is to the right. <- Treasure is to the left. -- Treasure is in the same column, not left or right. +$ Adds $50 to treasure and no $50 turn loss. -$ Subtracts…arrow_forwardOne problem with dynamic arrays is that they don't carry around their size.

- Write a function getNeighbors which will accept an integer array, size of the array and an index as parameters. This function will return a new array of size 2 which stores the neighbors of the value at index in the original array.

Using the "names.txt" retrieve the first name and phone number for each person and store in arrays (parallel). Prompt the user for a name, search for the name, and if name is found in the array, display the corresponding phone number. If the name is not found, prompt the user to enter a phone number, and add the new name and phone number to the list. Continue to prompt the user for names until the user enters quit or until arrays are full. After the arrays are full (containing 20 names), do not allow the user to add new entries.
