for the user to input a number(Z), to place that number in a pointer and to print out the pointer outside the function

// This shouldn't return anything as it's writing the value to the pointer instead
void scan_int_into_pointer(int * z) // it receives a pointer to an int as an argument
{
  printf("enter value=");
  scanf("%d", z); // Note: no & because z is already a pointer
  // Note: No return value...
}

  int q; // create an int

  // Run the function. I'm passing the address to q (a pointer) not the value of q itself
  // Use the & operator to get the address
  scan_int_into_pointer(&q);
