Is it possible to declare empty pointer variable inside function
calls and pass its address to the function?
These are sometimes required while using Win32 - Windows
Operating System API.
* Empty pointer variables are used by functions to return
information after the function is done.
My own horrible **suggestion** of empty pointer declaration
inside function call:
`someFunction(uint & passingEmptyVariableForWrite);`
What it would do:
* A new variable is declared inside function call.
* Address of that variable is passed to the function.
* After function is done, you can refer to it for returned value.
