Difference between the int *var, int* var

To the compiler, there is no difference between the two declarations.

To the human reader, the former may imply that the "int*" type applies to all declarations in the same statement. However, the * binds only to the following identifier.

For example, both of the following statements declare only one pointer.

int* ptr, foo, bar; int *ptr, foo, bar;
