# Go Array of Pointers
[Go Pointers](#)
Before we understand pointer arrays, let's look at an example that defines an integer array of length 3:
## Example
```go
package main
import "fmt"
const MAX int = 3
func main() {
a := []int{10, 100, 200}
var i int
for i = 0; i < MAX; i++ {
fmt.Printf("a[%d] = %dn", i, a)
}
}
The output of the above code execution is:
a = 10
a = 100
a = 200
There is a situation where we might need to store an array, so we need to use pointers.
The following declares an integer pointer array:
```go
var ptr *int;
`ptr` is an integer pointer array. Therefore, each element points to a value. The following example stores three integers in a pointer array:
## Example
```go
package main
import "fmt"
const MAX int = 3
func main() {
a := []int{10, 100, 200}
var i int
var ptr *int;
for i = 0; i < MAX; i++ {
ptr = &a /* Assign address of integer to pointer array */
}
for i = 0; i < MAX; i++ {
fmt.Printf("a[%d] = %dn", i, *ptr)
}
}
The output of the above code execution is:
a = 10
a = 100
a = 200
