C

const int* var = &v; // var is a pointer to const int, it is initialized with v address
int const* var = &v; // var is a pointer to const int, it is initialized with v address
const int *const var = &v; // var is a const pointer to const int, initialized with v address

So, while the first two definitions are interchangeable, the third is a bit different.

You may easily verify yourself using cdecl: C gibberish ↔ English[^]
