📌 C++ Pointers & References

Pointers and references let you directly work with memory addresses and aliases for variables. Pointers store memory addresses, references act as alternate names for existing variables.

💡 Pro Tip: Use * to declare pointers, & to get an address, and & again to declare a reference.

🔧 Syntax Breakdown

int* ptr = &value; — pointer to value
int& ref = value; — reference to value
*ptr — dereference pointer (get value it points to)
Changing *ptr or ref affects the original value
References can't be null or reassigned after initialization
