Pointers

1: Pointers Assignment
a) Write a program to accept an integer array and search for an element. The program displays the number of occurrences of the search element. b) Write a program using pointers to read an array of integers and print its elements in reverse order. c) Write a program using pointers which receives a sorted array of integers and an integer value and places the integer value at the correct place. d) Write a function using pointers to add two matrices and returns the pointer to the resultant matrix. e) Write a function using pointers to transpose the matrix passed as parameter and returns a pointer to the transposed matrix. f) Using pointers, write a function that receives a character string and a character as argument and deletes all occurrences of this character in the string. The function should return the corrected string. g) Create a menu based program which emulates the string based functions using only pointers namelya. strcpy() b. strrev() c. strlen() d. strappend() e. strcmp() h) Write a program to create a 2 D array using pointers which stores 5 strings. Sort the array using pointers.
