What will be the output of the program assuming that the array begins at location 1002?
#include<stdio.h>
int main()
{
int a[2][3][4] = { {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 1, 1, 2},
{2, 1, 4, 7, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 0, 0, 0} };
printf("%u, %u, %u, %d\n", a, *a, **a, ***a);
return 0;
}

'a' holds the starting address of 3d array here. So it will be 1002,
In a[][][], the first bracket represents the z-direction view. Second bracket represents rows(X-direction). 3rd brackets represents columns (Y-direction).
*a is nothing but a[][] is the starting address of 2d array in xy-direction.
**a is nothing but a[] is the starting address of 1d array in y-direction.
***a is value at stating of 3d array a
So answers will be: *a=1002, **a=1002, ***a=1.

Hi Anusha!
Well 'a' holdes the values, *a is a pointer, **a is a pointer to a pointer and ***a is pointer ro a pointer to a pointer and so on.
Hope you got me. Any how it seems you are fresher don't panic, such questions are not generally asked.
