I used to be confused about it a long time ago. Someone
summarized in an earlier post: "const" modifies the thing to the left. If
there's nothing to the left, then it applies to the right.

I think it is easier to just always read declarations from right to left (* is read as "pointer to"):


const char* cs
cs is a pointer to a const char

char* const cs
cs is a const pointer to char
