Pointers : A pointer is a variable who's value is address of some other variable i.e. it can be address of some memory location.

<varaible_type> *<name>
eg : 
     int *pointer_to_integer

The above example , we have declared a pointer to a variable (pointer_to_integer), the variable stores the address of an integer .

Implementation of Pointer :

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
int main(void) {
	int var = 20;
	int *p;
	p = &var;
	
	printf("Pointer %d\n",var);
	printf("Pointer %d\n",&var);     // Prints the address of the varaible (var)
	printf("Pointer %d\n",p);        
	printf("Pointer %d\n",*p);	     // Prints the value that (p) points to   
	return 0;
}
