Hello,
Am not very good with pointers in C,but I have a small doubt about
the way these pointers work..
We all know that in an array say x[5],x is gonna point to the first
element in that array(i.e)it will have the address of the first
element.In the the program below am not able to increment the value
stored in x,which is the address of the first element.Why am I not
able to do that?Afterall 1 is also a hexadecimal number then why
does adding 1 to x show me a error?
I got the message "Lvalue Required" when I complied the program.Even
if I declared x[5] as long int the same error continued.Can
someone please help me solve it out??
Thanks to all those who are gonna help me in this..

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
int x[5]={1,2,3,4,5};
printf("\naddr in x:%p",x);
printf("\nnumber in the addr stored in x is:%d",*x);
x=x+1;
printf("\naddr in x after incrementation is:%p",x);
printf("\nnumber in the addr stored in x is:%d",*x);
}
