porg question

main()
{
int i;
clrscr();
printf("%d", &i)+1;
scanf("%d", i)-1;
}

whats the output n why???
Note that there is & which means it probably prints the address of
i...n my guess is that + 1 has no effect on the output...
n regarding scanf - there is no & symbol...so still it will accept a
value but not store it in i n my guess is that -1 has no effect on the
code....
any comments....

Not a standard function.
printf("%d", &i)+1;
printf is expecting an int, you are passing a pointer to int, this is
undefined behavior. Try printf("%d\n", i);
You need to #include <stdio.h> before calling printf.
You need to initialize i before using it's value, what you are doing is
undefined behavior.
scanf("%d", i)-1;

You have several examples of undefined behavior in your program, this
means anything goes, you shouldn't expect anything in particular.

If you want to print the address, cast the address of i to a pointer to
void and use the %p conversion specifier:

printf("%p\n", (void *)&i);

printf returns an integer value. In your statement 1 is added to the
this value and the result is discarded. The compiler could legally
just remove the +1 as an optimization since your program wouldn't know
the difference, it doesn't use the result in any way.
