I tried to search on google, but cannot find sth useful, and in this case I just want to figure out how to print out the starting address of the dynamically allocated memory; print out the starting address and end address of the command line arguments of this process;print out the starting address and end address of the environment of this process;print out the starting addresses of function main, f1, and f2.
anybody can help me?..thank you!

In main :

print out the addresses of argc, argv – printf ("%d, %d", &argc, argv);

print out the starting address and end address of the command line arguments of this process – printf ("%d", (void *)argv);

print out the starting address and end address of the environment of this process – printf ("%d", (void *)environ);

print out the starting addresses of function main, f1, and f2 – printf ("%d %d %d", &main, &f1, &f2);

print out the addresses of global_x, global_y, global_array1, global_array2, global_pointer1, global_pointer2, global_float, global_double – just use the & operator in front of each variable whose address you want to print.

print out the addresses of string literals 10, "Hello, world!", "bye", 100.1 – printing addresses of string literals is not allowed.

In f1:

print out the addresses of x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6 – printf ("%d %d %d %d %d %d", &x1, &x2, &x3, &x4, &x5);

print out the addresses of f1_x, f1_y, f1_p1, f1_p2 – printf ("%d %d %d %d", &f1_x, &f1_y, f1_p1, f2_p2);

print out the address of the string literal "This is inside f1" – Taking address of a string literal is not allowed

In f2:

print out the address of x – printf ("%d", &x);

print out the addresses of f2_p, and f2_x – printf("%d", f2_p, &f2_x);

print out the starting address of the dynamically allocated memory – printf ("%d", f2_p);
