     }
     ~MyClass() {}
     int GetAge() const { 
         return itsAge; 
     }
     void SetAge(int age) { 
         itsAge = age; 
     }
 private:
     int itsAge;
 };
 
 int main()
 {
     MyClass * myObject = new MyClass;
     std::cout << "myObject is " << myObject->GetAge() << " years old\n";
 
     myObject->SetAge(5);
     std::cout << "myObject is " << myObject->GetAge() << " years old\n";
 
     delete myObject;
     return 0;
 }

myObject is 2 years old
myObject is 5 years old
