C pointers and arrays: [Warning] assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast

In this case a[4] is the 5th integer in the array a, ap is a pointer to integer, so you are assigning an integer to a pointer and that's the warning.
So ap now holds 45 and when you try to de-reference it (by doing *ap) you are trying to access a memory at address 45, which is an invalid address, so your program crashes.

You should do ap = &(a[4]); or ap = a + 4;

In c array names decays to pointer, so a points to the 1st element of the array.
In this way, a is equivalent to &(a[0]).

What are you doing: (I am using bytes instead of in for better reading)

You start with int *ap and so on, so your (your computers) memory looks like this:

-------------- memory used by some one else --------
000: ?
001: ?
...
098: ?
099: ?
-------------- your memory  --------
100: something          <- here is *ap
101: 41                 <- here starts a[] 
102: 42
103: 43
104: 44
105: 45
106: something          <- here waits x

lets take a look waht happens when (print short cut for ...print("$d", ...)

print a[0]  -> 41   //no surprise
print a     -> 101  // because a points to the start of the array
print *a    -> 41   // again the first element of array
print a+1   -> guess? 102
print *(a+1)    -> whats behind 102? 42 (we all love this number)

and so on, so a[0] is the same as *a, a[1] = *(a+1), ....

a[n] just reads easier.

now, what happens at line 9?

ap=a[4] // we know a[4]=*(a+4) somehow *105 ==>  45 
// warning! converting int to pointer!
-------------- your memory  --------
100: 45         <- here is *ap now 45

x = *ap;   // wow ap is 45 -> where is 45 pointing to?
-------------- memory used by some one else --------
bang!      // dont touch neighbours garden

So the "warning" is not just a warning it's a severe error.
