Example
Pointers can be dereferenced by adding an asterisk * before a pointer.
package main
import (
"fmt"
)
type Person struct {
Name string
}
func main() {
c := new(Person) // returns pointer
c.Name = "Catherine"
fmt.Println(c.Name) // prints: Catherine
d := c
d.Name = "Daniel"
fmt.Println(c.Name) // prints: Daniel
// Adding an Asterix before a pointer dereferences the pointer
i := *d
i.Name = "Ines"
fmt.Println(c.Name) // prints: Daniel
fmt.Println(d.Name) // prints: Daniel
fmt.Println(i.Name) // prints: Ines
}
