Modify Pointers

C++ Modify Pointers

 

Modify the Pointer Value

You can also change the pointer's value. But note that this will also change the value of the original variable:

Example

string food = "Pizza";
string* ptr = &food;

// Output the value of food (Pizza)
cout << food << "n";

// Output the memory address of food (0x6dfed4)
cout << &food << "n";

// Access the memory address of food and output its value (Pizza)
cout << *ptr << "n";

// Change the value of the pointer
*ptr = "Hamburger";

// Output the new value of the pointer (Hamburger)
cout << *ptr << "n";

// Output the new value of the food variable (Hamburger)
cout << food << "n";
