Programming 2 Notes Value Types vs Reference Types 1/17/14 Two different ways data may be stored and accessed; * By value: - primitive value types: int, short, long, char, double, float, boolean, etc. * By Reference: Data which is referenced through its address, commonly because it is too large to be accessed directly The value or address that is referenced is called a "pointer" * in C++ everthing is handled "by value" by default * However, by using the "new" keyword, you use a pointer, "pass by reference" * The symbol "*" denotes that a variable stores a pointer. * Always initialize a pointer to refer to "null".
