Here is the example for ***
#include<iostream.h>
#include<conio.h>
void main()
{ int i=10,*j,**k,***s;
j=&i;
k=&j;
s=&k;
cout<<***s; [This will print 10]
cout<<"\n"<<**(&s); [This will print the address of k, means to say the address stored in s)
getch();
}Are you sure? This action cannot be undone. -
