C++ uses the keyword this to point to the object, which invokes the member function. For instance, if class emp has a member function called getdata and the object objl of emp invokes it as shown in the first statement. The second statement will return the object objl, which invoked the function. We assign value to the data members of the class inside the member function using the general form as shown.

obj1.getdata(); 
return(this);


<data _member>=<value> <=> this-><data_member>=<value>
