adresses in array

Code:

        int main()

{

        double numbers[10] = {0.0,1.1,2.2,3.3,4.4,5.5,6.6,7.7,8.8,9.9};

        double* nPtr = &numbers[0];



        cout << numbers << endl;

        cout << nPtr + 1 << endl;

        cout << nPtr + 2 << endl;

        cout << nPtr + 3 << endl;

        cout << nPtr + 4 << endl;

        cout << nPtr + 5 << endl;

        cout << nPtr + 6 << endl;

        cout << nPtr + 7 << endl;

        cout << nPtr + 8 << endl;

        cout << nPtr + 9 << endl;



}

OUTPUT:

Code:

0xbf92e408

0xbf92e410

0xbf92e418

0xbf92e420

0xbf92e428

0xbf92e430

0xbf92e438

0xbf92e440

0xbf92e448

0xbf92e450

I am confuse why my memory adresses are not from 8 to 8 bytes. Can someone explain why ? Thank you

If by 'from 8 to 8 bytes' you mean what I think you mean, they are. I.e. each line's number is the previous plus 8.

Remember the address is printed in hexadecimal format (base 16) so the addresses are each 8 bytes long and are on zero or eight byte boundaries.

The size of double is 8 byes.

The output base is 16, digits are from 0 to 9 and a to f.

0x00 + 0x08 = 0x08 (8 in Dec)
0x08 + 0x08 = 0x10 (16 in Dec)

Hope my explanation may help you.
