         << "So the way this program works is really simple, it first initializes the values varOne and varTwo as well as addOutput, for the baseline functionality of the program, it then initializes varOneLocation and varTwoLocation as pointers in the same data type as the first variables (int). Then the program simply asks for the first and second number as it is the simple addition. After that when varOne and Two are holding data, it gives the location of them to the pointers, does the math, then outputs all of the data."
