Find the exact address of variable Buf

Question

As reference, I\'m using the following code:

#include 
#include 

int main (void) {
    char buf[100]; // ------> How do I find         


        

Answer 1

(gdb) p &a if you need the address of variable a. A variable might be cached in a register though, in which case GDB would tell you address requested for identifier "a" which is in register $xxx.

Sidenote: do not use gets, see here.
