pointers in c++

/*
Here is how pointers work in a nustshell(represent | as what's
happening in the memory and / as a place in the ram):
int x = 2; | 2/0x00ef5
int *z = &x| 0x00ef5/0x00ef6 (See how the value of the pointer z
matches with the memory address of x? that's how they work!)

when you print out the pointer as *n (replace n with the var name)
it will actually look at the value
see it's a memory address
go to that memory address
and print the value originally in the memory address which is 2

Here is code:
*/
int x = 5;
int *y = &x;
cout << *y+1;
/*
the reason why i did *y+1 was so to show that after it got
the value from the memory address it will add 1
*/
