and this raises a question from me!

CMatrix(string&) {;}

please explain to me in psuedocode what happens when you write the ampersand AFTER the variable type and pass it to a constructor? personally i would have just wrote

(Toggle Plain Text)

CMatrix(string);

i guess my questions are! First: why write the ampersand after the variable type?
and Second:how would your program benefit from this?
