Hi,

A quick (dumb?) question:

How do I display variable addresses in hex rather than in decimal?
An example:

  double var;
  cout << "var value is " << var << " and its address is ";
  cout << unsigned (&var) << endl;

A sample output:

[vlad@borg pointers]$ address
var value is 6 and its address is 3221223436.

My (platform/OS independent) books insist on using:

cout << &var << endl; (without "unsigned" and without 
round brackets!) I am using gcc/g++ 2.7.2 on Linux-i586.

Please reply in newsgroups.

Thank you in advance,
Vlad
