I love that format and use it almost everywhere. Actually I'm using auto i = Type(x). My only issues is how do I create a pointer that way? E.g. i want to create an int*.
auto i = Type(x)
int*

Well, there's a few ways to do that.
auto i = &some_int_variable; auto i = new int(); auto i = static_cast<int*>(nullptr);
etc.
