Pointer is just and address holder of anather variable narmally.

But it is a very good concept of reusability. In c pointer use some signs also.

Normal variable means it stores the values directly. But if you want to change those values without touching those variables we are using pointers.

Pointer is a one type of variable it holds the address of the variable.

int a=5; // suppose a variable address is 100
int *p;

p=&a;// here p(pointer variable)holdes the address of the a variable.
