14. The asterisk indicates the data type in memory

• Note that using syntax without an asterisk

  
      MEMORY[ (char*)location ] // correct syntax
  
      MEMORY[ (char)location ]  // incorrect syntax
  
  
  

  cannot not be applied, because (char) already has a meaning of the data type cast operator:

  
      int x = 65;
      char c = (char)x; // (char) explicitly converts x to char
