1. Pointer to Constant Value
const char *ptr = 'a'; OR char const *ptr = 'a';"const" precedes the *, that means the pointer treat *ptr as constant
This is NOT valid :
*ptr = 'b';
Another example;
int nValue = 5;
const int *pnPtr = &nValue;
Thus, the following is okay:
nValue = 6; // nValue is non-const
But the following is not:
*pnPtr = 6; // pnPtr treats its value as const
2. Constant Pointer
char * const ptr = 'a';This means the pointer ptr is a constant pointer
This is NOT valid:
char char_B = 'b';
ptr = &char_B;
3. Constant Pointer to Constant Value
const char * const ptr = 'a'; OR char const * const ptr = 'a';Reference:
