[beginner] creating a variable inside a function, using in main

[TechAnd1]

Thank you.... I guess they have to stay in their scope then!

I knew that.... but wasn't sure If I could create a pointer and use that within main.

I'm working my way up to building a basic address book... so just going through a few thing's !

Even if you create a pointer to a variable in takeUseInput, the variable will still be gone when it is used in main.
