Although the stdout standard stream defaults to the screen, you can force it to print to another device using something called redirection. t the DOS prompt, instead of entering just the executable name, follow it with the redirection character >, and thus redirect what normally would appear on-screen to some other device. The following example would redirect the program's output to the prn device, usually the printer attached on LPT1: C:>REDIR > PRN Alternatively, you might want to redirect the program's output to a file, as the following example shows: C:>REDIR > REDIR.OUT In this example, all output that would have normally appeared on-screen will be written to the file REDIR.OUT. read less

Nope, because Array Tag/Name is an alias or name to the first location of the array. It doesn't have any memory of its own (pointers do have their own memory).
