Pointer help please.

I need to pass the value of a pointer from one function to another.

I have it set up like this...

void GetTheMoney();
void FigureTheWinnings(int *, int &BetAmount);

void GetTheMoney()
{
int BetAmount, *BetAmt_ptr = &BetAmount;

cout << "\nEnter the amount you wish to bet.";
cin >> *BetAmt_ptr;
}

void FigureTheWinnings(int *, int &BetAmount)
{

cout<< (... i need BetAmount or *BetAmt_ptr here!? )

}

i think my protoype format is wrong can anyone show my the correct format.

please and thank you!

First of all where are you passing the BetAmout?? You are not callingFigureTheWinnings() from GetTheMoney.

Also in GetTheMoney() just do :


Since this will automatically give the value of the contents of the pointer.

Call to FiguretheWinning() would be


From within the function GetTheMoney();
