c++ function pointer variable

// Here's a macro I use to define a type.
// You're welcome to use it, but I'll also show how the type is defined.
#define d_typedef_func_ty(return_z, name, ...) typedef return_z (*name)(__VA_ARGS__);
d_typedef_func_ty(int, int_2i_f, int, int); // creates a int(*)(int, int) function pointer
// which is equivelant to the following:
typedef int(*int_2i_f)(int, int);

how a function gives a pointer as parameter c++

//example that uses pointer as parameter

// function definition to swap the values.
void swap(int *x, int *y) {
   int temp;
   temp = *x; /* save the value at address x */
   *x = *y; /* put y into x */
   *y = temp; /* put x into y */
  
   return;
}
