Here are examples about how you can declare pointer in the programming language C++:

char* p;             //p is a pointer to char
char const* p;       //p is a pointer to const char
const char* p;       //p is a pointer to const char
char* const p;       //p is a const pointer to char
char const* const p; //p is a const pointer to const char
const char* const p; //p is a const pointer to const char

It might look strange by first reading
