C++ Program Help: Get Sum of N Numbers w/ Pointers

[k_phanichandra]

What is the program code in c++ to get the sum of given n numbers using pointers?

 

[Jheriko]

"using pointers" is vague, also there is a separate programming forum...

if you have a list of length n and some pointer p to the start of that list, of the correct type then:

type sum(type* p, int n)
{
  type sum = 0;
  for(int i = 0; i < n; i++) sum += p[i];
  return sum;
}

is a function that sums the numbers
