If integer pointer aPtr is to point at a data item whose value may not change it must be declared as ...
A.
const int * const aPtr;
B.
int *aPtr;
C.
int *const aPtr;
D.
const int *aPtr;
Declare an integer pointer variable intPointer. Initialize it to point to an int variablenamed someInt.Assign the value 451 to someInt and output (cout) the variable someInt and output (cout)the value pointed to by intPointer.Write an assignment statement that indirectly stores 900 into the value pointed to by intPointer.Output (cout) the value pointed to by intPointer and output (cout) the variable someInt,
Given variables category, heat, and voltage, declare and assign the following pointers:
character pointer categoryPointer is assigned with the address of category.
integer pointer heatPointer is assigned with the address of heat.
double pointer voltagePointer is assigned with the address of voltage.
Ex: If the input is C 355 3.5, then the output is:
Product category: COperational limit: 355 degrees at 3.5 volts.
#include <iostream>#include <iomanip>using namespace std;
int main() { char category; int heat; double voltage; /* Your code goes here */ cin >> category; cin >> heat; cin >> voltage;
cout << "Product category: " << *categoryPointer << endl; cout << "Operational limit: " << *heatPointer << " degrees at " << fixed << setprecision(1) << *voltagePointer << " volts." << endl;
return 0;}

- (Data processing) A bank’s customer records are to be stored in a file and read into a set of arrays so that a customer’s record can be accessed randomly by account number. Create the file by entering five customer records, with each record consisting of an integer account number (starting with account number 1000), a first name (maximum of 10 characters), a last name (maximum of 15 characters), and a double-precision number for the account balance. After the file is created, write a C++ program that requests a user-input account number and displays the corresponding name and account balance from the file.arrow_forward• R7.11A pointer variable can contain a pointer to a single variable, a pointer to an array, nullptr, or a random value.

- C++ Create a class Student that contains three members: roll no, name and mark, and three functions. Write a first inputStudent() function to get data of student class. Write a second getMark() function that returns a student’s mark. Write a third display() function that displays a student’s data. In a main() function, you need to declare 40 students and get data of all students by using inputStudent() function. And also use a pointer array to keep all students by mark greater than 50 and display the searching data of each student in that pointer array (Use the access operator -> to access a pointer points to member functions of the Student class).arrow_forwardC++ Pointers must be used to solve the following problem. Write a function createPassword() with no return value to randomly select 8 capital letters from the alphabet. The function receives the address of the first characters of the password string as parameter. Hint: Declare a characters string that contains all the capital letters of the alphabet and use the index values of the characters in the string for random selection of characters, e.g.char alpha [27] = “ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ”;char *pAlpha = alpha; Display the password from the main() function. Write a function replaceVowels() with no return value to replace all the vowels (A, E, I, O, U) that have been selected with a symbol from the list ($ % @ # &). That is, A must be replaced by $, E replaced by %, I mustbe replaced by @, O replaced by #, and U must be replaced by &.
