You have the ref keyword but it only works on value types

Like CG said, they are by ref, by default. Both instances will change.

static void changeMyString1(string myString)
        {
            myString = mystring + " worked";
        }

        static void changeMyString2(ref string myString)

            myString = mystring + " worked"; 
        }

int global = 10;

void Test()
{
   int val = 0;
   
   int *p = &val;
   Method2(p); // *p = 0;
   Method1(&p); // *p = 10
}

void Method1(int **p)

  *p = &g;
