就像在 C 中一樣，Rust 原始指標可以指向其他原始指標（這反過來可能指向更多的原始指標）。

// Take a regular string slice
let planet: &str = "Earth";

// Create a constant pointer pointing to our string slice
let planet_ptr: *const &str = &planet as *const &str;

// Create a constant pointer pointing to the pointer
let planet_ptr_ptr: *const *const &str = &planet_ptr as *const *const &str;

// This can go on...
let planet_ptr_ptr_ptr = &planet_ptr_ptr as *const *const *const &str;

unsafe {
    // Direct usage
    println!("The name of our planet is: {}", planet);
    // Single dereference
    println!("The name of our planet is: {}", *planet_ptr);
    // Double dereference
    println!("The name of our planet is: {}", **planet_ptr_ptr);
    // Triple dereference
    println!("The name of our planet is: {}", ***planet_ptr_ptr_ptr);
}

這將輸出：The name of our planet is: Earth 四次。
