in c++ write a function pointer code example

Example 1: pointer in c++

int* pointVar, var;
var = 5;

// assign address of var to pointVar
pointVar = &var;

// access value pointed by pointVar
cout << *pointVar << endl;   // Output: 5

In the above code, the address of var is assigned to the pointVar pointer.
We have used the *pointVar to get the value stored in that address.

Example 2: Function pointer C++

void one() { cout << "One\n"; }
void two() { cout << "Two\n"; }


int main()
{
	void (*fptr)(); //Declare a function pointer to voids with no params

	fptr = &one; //fptr -> one
	*fptr(); //=> one()

	fptr = &two; //fptr -> two
	*fptr(); //=> two()

	return 0;
}
