some questions

Q. What int value means in exit(int) function?

A: Return a value to OS, let OS know the exit state of your process.

Only lowest 8 bits are used. Usually return 0 means no error. Otherwise, errorcode. 

Q. Is *(p++) the same as (*p)++?

A: No, absolutely not.

• *(p++) is getting the value pointed by the pointer first, then move the pointer by 1.
• *(p)++ is getting the value pointed by the pointer first, then add 1 to the value.

Try the following code, results are commented into the code.

#include<stdio.h>
void main() {
   long llist1[3] = {50, 60, 70};
   long* p1 = llist1;
   p1++;
   printf("%d/n", *p1); // 60

   long llist2[3] = {50, 60, 70};
   long* p2 = llist2;

   
   

    
    Q. What does define mean in C, is it constant?
   
   
   
   

    
    A: No, it is called macro, which just replace the same notation with the same text.
   
   
   
   

    
    It can be used as constant, but be careful, there should be no "=" sign there. See the following example. 
    
    
#define THREE 3
#define ARRAY_SIZE(a) (sizeof(a)/sizeof((a)[0]))

   long n = (*p2);
   n++;
   printf("%d/n", n); // 51
}
