    Answer : Option D

    Explanation :

    int x[10]; * x will store the base address of array. *
    Statement I, III and IV is invalid.

    Statement I and III : ++x and x++ are throwing en error while compile (lvalue required as increment operand )
    Since, x is storing in the address of the array which is static value which cannot be change by the operand.

    Statement IV : x*2 is also throw an error while compile (invalid operands to binary * (have 'int *' and 'int') )

    Statement II : x+1 is throw a warning: assignment makes integer from pointer without a cast [enabled by default]
