What will be the output of the program?
#include<stdio.h>

int main()
{
    int arr[2][2][2] = {10, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8};
    int *p, *q;
    p = &arr[1][1][1];
    q = (int*) arr;
    printf("%d, %d\n", *p, *q);
    return 0;
}

Well said rahul.

This is 3D array you can look at this diagram so that easly understand it

1stblock R1| 10 . 2|     2nd block R1| 5 . 6 |
|_______| |_______|
R2 | 3 , 4| R2| 7 . 8 |
|_______| |_______|
C1 C2 C1 C2

arr[1][1][1]==>block 2,row 2,colum 2; ==>[8].
arr mean arr[0][0][0]==>block 1 row 1 column; ==>[10]

Value if its a[ 2 ] [ 2 ] [ 1 ].. ?

Hi friends, can any one tell me, how the elements in 3d array are allocated. ?

a[0][0][0]=10;
a[0][1][1] =2;

0 1 ->blocks
0 1 0 1 ->sub blocks
10 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 ->values
0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 ->sub blocks of sub blocks

3-D REPRESENTATION OF ARRY IS

blocks-subblocks-subblocks of subblocks-values
then a [0] [1] [1] = 4
a [1] [1] [0] = 7 .so i think it is correct.

arr[2][2][2], this array representation says that there are 2Blocks each with 2Rows and 2Columns

i,e we can judge that every Block will have 4 Elements each
so Block1-------[10 2 3 4]
i,e {10 2} in Row1
{3 4} in Row2
Again, Block2----[5 6 7 8]
i,e {5 6} in Row1
{7 8} in Row2

Now, let me explain how elments are described in 3D array representaion:- [Block][Row][Column]
so, the member of Block1 are described as below,
10 is [0][0][0]
2 is [0][0][1]
3 is [0][1][0]
4 is [0][1][1]
now, the members of Block2,
5 is [1][0][0]
6 is [1][0][1]
and so on
Thus, arr[1][1][1] is 8
