Step 9 of 10
Two pointers from both ends
A very common pattern: one pointer starts at the front, one at the back, and they walk toward each other until they meet.
int *lo = a, *hi = a + n - 1;
while (lo < hi) {
/* work with *lo and *hi */
lo++;
hi--;
}
Comparing two pointers with < is fine when both point into the same array.
Your turn: write void reverse(int *a, int n) that reverses the array in place using two pointers (no [ ]).
