The constellation Perseus is not considered a pointer constellation. Pointer constellations, like the Big Dipper and Cassiopeia, help locate other stars or constellations in the night sky. In contrast, Perseus is primarily known for its own notable features, such as the Andromeda Galaxy and the variable star Algol, rather than guiding observers to other stars.
The Big Dipper can be used to locate other constellations in the night sky. By following the curve of the handle, you can "arc to Arcturus" in the constellation Bootes. Additionally, you can use the two pointer stars at the end of the Big Dipper's bowl to find Polaris in the constellation Ursa Minor (Little Dipper).
Une constellation
Leo is a constellation - there is not a constellation inside Leo.
The Big Dipper is primarily composed of seven bright stars: Dubhe, Merak, Phecda, Megrez, Alioth, Mizar, and Alkaid. Dubhe and Merak are often referred to as the "pointer stars" because they guide observers to the North Star, Polaris. Each star contributes to the distinctive ladle shape of the constellation, which is part of the larger Ursa Major constellation.
sagittarius is the constellation of Archery
Cassiopeia
the Little Bear
YES. Ursa Major also contains the big dipper (which is not a constellation, it is an asterism) and the pointer stars are located in the handle of the big dipper.
Ursa Major is the constellation. The 2 stars in the bowl of the dipper point to Polaris. Polaris IS the North Star.

The question is vague. There are many stars called "pointer" stars. For example, two of the stars in Ursa Major lie along a line that passes very near Polaris. A completely different set of stars in Ursa Major form an arc that passes near Regulus. There are plenty of other such astronomical coincidences.
PROXIMA CENTAURI Alpha Centauri is the brightest star system in the constellation of Centaurusis and is also the outermost "pointer" to the Southern Cross.
The constellation that contains the pointer star for Aries is Pisces. The star Al Rescha, located at the intersection of the two "fish" in Pisces, serves as a guide to locating Aries. Aries itself is represented by the ram and is situated adjacent to Pisces in the night sky.
1. pointer to a constant means you can not change what the pointer points to 2. constant pointer means you can not change the pointer.
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
A pointer only holds an address information (location) in the memory. if a pointer holds points another pointer then it is a pointer to an other pointer. Pointer holds an address in the memory so in that address there is an other location information that shows another location.
pointer is the variable that holds the address of another variable
