Pointer function help

[ace55]

The assignment is : the following function uses reference variables as parameters. rewrite the function so it uses pointers instead of reference variables and then demonstrate the function in a complete program

int doSomething(int &x, int &y)
{
int temp =x;
x = y *10;
y = temp * 10;
return x + y;
}

what am i doing wrong when calling the function? when i compile it doesnt work correctly

 #include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
int dosomething();

int dosomething(int* x, int* y)
{
      int temp = *x;
      *x = *y * 10;
      *y = temp * 10;
      return *x+*y;
}

int main ()
{
int x,y;
cout << "Please enter a number" << endl;
cin >> x;
cout << "Please enter another number" << endl;
cin >> y;





dosomething(&x, &y);
cout << (x + y) << " = x(" << x << ") + y(" << y << ")\n" << endl;
system("Pause");
return 0;
}

What leads you to believe it isn't working correctly? What data are you trying with it, what are you getting out, and what are you expecting?
