Hi

i am trying to get a pointer to output text if it is possible but i dont understand where i am going wrong

this is the code i have come up with so far

Code:
  
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
 
int main()
{
  char name[10];
  char *ptr;

  ptr = &name[40];
  cin>>name;
  cin.ignore();
  cout<< *ptr <<"\n";
  cin.get();

}
when i do run the program i get some weird symbol. is this because it is just pointing to the memory address location?

Thanks
