Doubt in Class code

#1

Why do we use ( this -> ) in parameterized constructor ?

#2

hello @yashsharma4304

this is internal pointer that contains address of ur object . (note : compiler declare this on its own we dont have to delcare or initialise it)

so the stament this->member_variable is just accesing that member variable.

we use this when member variable name is same as local variable to distinguish them ,
there are other use cases as well u can read them from here-> link

#3

so let us say if I write a parameterized constructor as:

Car( string name, int x, int y){
public :
this->name = name;
this->x = x;
this->y = y;
}
Here the string parameter is name therefore we will use (this->) to distinguish both objects. But instead of using name if I write string n then I will write it as:

n = name;

Is this alright ??

#4

yeah correct. . . . . . . . . . . .
