 The address of an overloaded function can be taken only when it's clear which version of the function is being referenced. See [Function Overloading](function-overloading.md) for information about how to obtain the address of a particular overloaded function.
 
-When the address-of operator is applied to a qualified name, the result depends on whether the *qualified-name* specifies a static member. If so, the result is a pointer to the type specified in the declaration of the member. If the member isn't static, the result is a pointer to the member *name* of the class indicated by *qualified-class-name*. For more information about *qualified-class-name*, see [Primary expressions](../cpp/primary-expressions.md).

-The scope-resolution operator (**`::`**) followed by a name is a primary expression.  Such names must be names at global scope, not member names.  The type of the expression is determined by the declaration of the name. It's an l-value (that is, it can appear on the left-hand side of an assignment expression) if the declaring name is an l-value. The scope-resolution operator allows a global name to be referred to, even if that name is hidden in the current scope. See [Scope](../cpp/scope-visual-cpp.md) for an example of how to use the scope-resolution operator.

 An expression enclosed in parentheses is a primary expression. Its type and value are identical to the type and value of the unparenthesized expression. It's an l-value if the unparenthesized expression is an l-value.
