[Dev-C++] What's the difference?

Hi coders,

what's the difference between using pointers and using simple variables? How
does this difference affects the performance of my code? I know that using
pointers is working with memory addresses but using simple variables would
not have the same effect?

int *number or int number: what's the best to be used?


Thanks!
