pointer

•A data type that is made of Alt P and can only be created for parameters and local variables.

•You can point to an array with a [ key.

•The data type that point to another variable. Modifying the value changes the value of the original variable.

•You cannot point to a variable other than the one you are currently pointing to.

•The Alt S shortcut lets you pass the class itself to the pointer.

•When substituting allocator, references, or pointer for basic data types, you can enter an Alt P key to return 1 or 0 depending on the presence or absence of a reference.
