**Pointer Declaration, Assignment, and Initialization in C**In this section, we provide examples of pointer declaration, assignment, and initialization. These examples utilize variables of type `float` and `char`, specifically `float weight` and `char middleInitial`.### 1. Float Pointer- **Declaration of float pointer** ```c float *ptrWeight; ```- **Assignment of float variable** ```c float weight = 5.9; ```- **Initialization of float pointer** ```c ptrWeight = &weight; ```### 2. Char Pointer- **Declaration of char pointer** ```c char *ptrMiddleInitial; ```- **Assignment of char variable** ```c char middleInitial = 'B'; ```- **Initialization of char pointer** ```c ptrMiddleInitial = &middleInitial; ```These examples illustrate how to declare a pointer, assign values to variables, and initialize pointers to refer to those variables using the address-of operator (`&`).

(b) Provide examples of pointer declaration, assignment, and initialization in the segments below. Be sure to make use of the float and char variables initialized in the assignment and initialization sections (e.g., float weight and char middlelnitial). /* Declaration of float pointer */ /* Assignment of float pointer */ float weight = 5.9; /* Initialization of float pointer */ float weight = 5.9; /* Declaration of char pointer */ /* Assignment of char pointer */ char middlelnitial = 'B'; /* Initialization of char pointer */ char middlelnitial = 'B';

Question 2. Write a C-program that calls two functions (PosNumber and GreaterNumbers). a) Write function PosNumber that checks if a number is positive, it returns 1, if positive, and returns -1 if negative. Hint: Use if statement to check if a value entered is less than 0 b) Write function GreaterNumbers the checks the values in an array for numbers greater than a number entered and prints all numbers in the array that are greater than that number. Hint: The function takes the array and a number “num" as parameters, it does not return any value to the main function. c) In the main function, read numbers into an array of size N (N is entered by the user), call function PosNumber to check if number entered is -negative call function GreaterNumbers to print all number in the array greater than num entered by the user.

Task : Describe a void function named Swap(x,y) that swaps the values stored in the variables x and (x is a real type parameter and is both input and output). Using this function , for the given variables of real type a, b, c, d, one should sequentially replace the values of the pairs (a, b), (c, d) and (b, c) and let a, b, c, d be new values .
