yes
When a variable is declared as being a pointer to type void it is known as a generic pointer. Since you cannot have a variable of type void, the pointer will not point to any data and therefore cannot be dereferenced. It is still a pointer though, to use it you just have to cast it to another kind of pointer first. Hence the term Generic pointer.
A pointer is a pointer to something else. One way to look at it is that there is only one pointer type - an address to something else. Another way to look at it is to see how many different types there are, such as int, char, float, struct, double, etc. and to realize that you can build a pointer to any of them, as well as a pointer to a pointer to any of them, etc., etc., etc. Bottom line, is there are an unlimited number of types of pointers.
Example: int x; -- integer int *px= &x; -- pointer to integer int **ppx= &px; -- pointer to pointer to integer int ***pppx= &ppx; -- pointer to pointer to pointer to integer
It is a pointer.You can pass a smart pointer from one thread to another, and the two threads are free to use their smart pointers just as they were native pointers. They can copy them, assign them, and do whatever they want with them, and the smart pointer will not get you into trouble.
All stars are circumpolar
At the equator, you will see no circumpolar stars.
A circumpolar star never sets below your horizon.
Circumpolar motion refers to the motion of the stars relative to the viewer in a particular spot. Stars that are said to be circumpolar never cross the horizon as they cross the sky for the viewer.
If you were standing on the equator, how many circumpolar stars would you see?
They are always visible in the sky. (Unless it's cloudy). They don't "rise" and "set" at the latitudes where they are circumpolar.
No. The Zodiac are 12 constellations that lie in the plane of the ecliptic; circumpolar ("moving around the pole") stars are well above or below the ecliptic.
No they do not. By definition circumpolar stars do not "rise". They are above the observer's horizon at all times.
They believed that when Paraohs died they would become one of the circumpolar stars
Polaris
Circumpolar stars/constellations always stay above our horizon, if they go below our horizon than they are no longer circumpolar.
Its basically the stars that are at one of the earths axes or stars that point to the main stars at the 2 axes.
