+## Creating References
+
+A reference variable is a "reference" to an existing variable, and it is created with the & operator:
+
+
+       ```cpp
+    string food = "Pizza";  // food variable
+string &meal = food;    // reference to food
+      
+       ```
+
+  Now, we can use either the variable name food or the reference name meal to refer to the food variable:
+  ## Example 
+  
+       ```cpp
+       string food = "Pizza";
+string &meal = food;
+
+cout << food << "\n";  // Outputs Pizza
+cout << meal << "\n";  // Outputs Pizza
+    
+       ```
+

+## Memory Address
+
+In the example from the previous page, the & operator was used to create a reference variable. But it can also be used to get the memory address of a variable; which is the location of where the variable is stored on the computer.
+
+When a variable is created in C++, a memory address is assigned to the variable. And when we assign a value to the variable, it is stored in this memory address.
+
+To access it, use the & operator, and the result will represent where the variable is stored:
+
+- ### **Example**
+  
+    ```cpp
+      string food = "Pizza";
+
+      cout << &food; // Outputs 0x6dfed4
+    ```
+
+Note: The memory address is in hexadecimal form (0x..). Note that you may not get the same result in your program.
