So you can access a method from a class pointer the same way you
would access a method from a class normally?
so '&foo.bar();' works the same as 'foo.bar();'?
ah that makes sense, classes being pointers behind the scenes,
Most of my programming experience is in Java, so the usage of
pointers is a rather new concept for me.
Thank you kindly for your answer, much appreciated!! :-)
