It is simply example of declaring and initialising a pointer at the same time , it shortens the code size. Int var; Int *ptr ; ptr = &var ; Or simply you can write Int var; Int *ptr=&var ;

This is example if work with a pointer variable. The pointer variable does not contain any value (as number, string,..], but points to another variable (or later into dynamic variable in memory]. So the example says int*p=&var; declare p as pointer to integer variable and points to variable var...

as Petr said, p is essentially a variable that stores the memory address of another variable.
