Hi
Can anybody plz tell me what's wrong with this code!
I am getting SEGMENTATION FAULT. ofcourse, if i use &i, &s as arguments
in scanf, it's work fine as usual. can't i use pointers which hold the
address of i and s. plz clarify this. THANKS IN ADVANCE.

	int i,*iptr = &i;
        short s,*shptr = &s;
        printf("enter 2 values:\n");
        scanf("%d %d",iptr,shptr);
        printf("%d %d\n",*iptr,*shptr);
	printf("%d %d\n",i,s);
