For example:
int x = 10;
int *xPrt = &x;
x has the value 10
xPrt shows to the memory address of x,it's a pointer to x.
* is used before a variable name to declare a pointer.
Yes I have a ****load of coding work to do and yes I am very bored at the moment and haven't smoked since I woke up,that makes ~5 hours...

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jun 2008 Location: Fredericksburg, Virginia | | | FWIW, this thread was supposed to have 4 astericks in the title (like this: ****?). it was supposed to look as if this threads titles was an obsence word that was filtered.
But then I heard JT loading the B&Cannon and changed it.
Also, this thread was (i'm pretty sure) posted following Bacardi 151. The fact that it isn't a total disaster is either a testament to my metabolism or my ability to operate well in difficult circumstances.
Either way, I had a fun weekend.
