C++ whats the difference between uint64 and *uint64?
<p>Why does:</p>

<pre><code>const char example;
</code></pre>

<p><code>(uint64*)example</code> have a value of 140734799798420</p>

<p>and</p>

<p><code>*(uint64*)example</code> have a value of 7004431430466964258</p>

<p>p.s. dont worry about the type cast, I am interested why the second <code>*</code> increases the value.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>
