 A pointer can point to a typed object or to **void**. When a program allocates a new object on the [heap](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Heap) in memory, it receives the address of that object in the form of a pointer. Such pointers are called *owning pointers*; an owning pointer (or a copy of it) must be used to explicitly delete the heap-allocated object when it is no longer needed. Failure to delete the memory results in a *memory leak* and renders that memory location unavailable to any other program on the machine. For more information, see [new and delete operators](new-and-delete-operators.md).
