If the dereference operator is used you will get the “value pointed by” a pointer. ... Note: The asterisk (*) sign in the declaration of the pointer does not mean “value pointed by”, it only means that it is a pointer (it is part of its type compound specifier). It should not be confused with the dereference operator.
