what is the specific reason behind getting these two warning? (need an extended explanation)

Question

#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdlib.h>

int *get_val(int y) {

int x = 200; x += y;

return x; }

int main()

{ int p, y = 10;

p = get_val(y);

printf("%d\n", p);

exit(0); }

After compiling the following code I got .

main.c:17:9: warning: return makes pointer from integer without a cast

main.c:25:4: warning: assignment makes integer from pointer without a cast

but it still showed the correct ANSWER WHICH IS 210 . (I did run it in a c language based compiler)

Answer 1

the function returns an ADDRESS of an integer...

So yes, it is returning an ADDRESS of 210...
