I don't think there is a formal specification of K&R C, just the (somewhat informal) book. On topic of pointer arithmetics, the case of addition is not completely clear. It does say that you can only subtract pointers to members of the same array, though. On topic of addition of integer to a pointer, it says that "The construction p + n means the address of the n-th object beyond the one p currently points to. This is true regardless of the kind of object p points to; n is scaled according to the size of the objects p points to, which is determined by the declaration of p." Zdenek
