Thanks, @Munny. Your method seemed simple and short :).

j=&i,

So, *j=i;
*j=3
i**j
3*3=9
i**j*i
9*3=27
i**j*i+*j
27+3 = 30.

i=3,*j,k;
j=&i; then
j=&3 means *j=3
i**j*i+*j=3*3*3+3=27 +3=30.

i=3;
j=&i i.e. *j==i==3
i**j*i+*j i.e. i*(*j)*i+(*j)==3*3*3+3==30.

First;

j=&i implies *j=I,
Then;
*j=3,
i**j = 3*3=9,
i**j*i= 9*3= 27,
i**j*i+*j = 27+3 = 30.

Here using precedence of operator first evaluate * (dereferencing operator) associativity from right to left.

So expression become i*(*J)*i+(*j) ->> i*(3)*i+(3).

Then precedence goes to * (multiplication operator) and their associativity from left to right
so it become ((i*3)*i)+3--> 3*3*3+3=27.

j=&i implies *j=i;
*j=3
i**j=3*3=9
i**j*i=9*3=27
i**j*i+*j=27+3=30.

Since,
i=3.
*j=content at *j means value of X.
means *j=3.
Replace i with 3 and *j also with 3.
Then, 3*3*3+3=27+3 i.e. 30.

Thank you for explaining this @Rahul.

@ALL.


Just simplify it;

i*(*j)*i+(*j).
3*(3)*3+3.
