An integer pointer. C provides a facility for creating new data type names.

The answer is integer pointer. But the reason for this is not so apparent. When we write

typedef int* ptr        

We create a new type int* . So when we write

ptr p1, p2

The new type ptr is applied to both p1 and p2.
So p2 become an integer pointer

NOTE:
If we write int* p1,p2 in this case p2 is an integer. This is because the * is applied only to p1. To make my point clearer, I re write the above statement as

int *p1,p2
