Variable Addresses in the Stack

Explore the structure of stack memory in C++ and how variables are stored with unique addresses. Understand how function calls manage local variables on the stack and how to access variable addresses using the address-of operator for effective pointer use.

We'll cover the following...

Structure of the Stack

Suppose we declare a simple integer called var:

C++
int main(){
  int var = 10;
}

This reserves memory for var in the stack. In C++, the stack represents the static section of the RAM. It stores different functions in a stack form (the ...
