The concepts of pointers and references have similarities, which is why we have put them together in a single chapter. Pointers are important because they provide the foundation for allocating memory dynamically. Pointers can also make your programs more effective and efficient in other ways. Both references and pointers are fundamental to object-oriented programming.
In this chapter, you’ll learn
What pointers are and how they are defined
How to obtain the address of a variable
How to create memory for new variables ...
