A pointer is a group of cells (often two or four) that can hold an address. The unary operator &. gives the address of an object.

The unary operator * is the indirection or dereferencing operator; when applied to a pointer, it accesses the object the pointer points to.

Char pointers are defined as follows:

char *ptr = (char*)malloc(size)
