You're creating a pointer to a free function (one defined outside a class) and then storing it, and invoking it, from within an object. But it's also possible to create a pointer to class member data or a member function. See here[^]. You may need to read several articles about this to gain a good understanding, because I can't point to one that is really good on its own. Search on "C++ pointer to member" and read articles that discuss the type Class::* (a pointer to a class member) and operators .* and ->*. These make the following possible:

C++
int Class::* pm = &Class::m;         // pointer to member data "int m"
int (Class::* pf)(int) = &Class::f;  // pointer to member function "int f(int)"
Class c, *k;
c.*pm = 1;        // c.m = 1;
n = c.*pf(0);     // n = c.f(0);
k->.pm = 2;       // k->m = 2;
n = (k->*pf)(0);  // n = k->f(0);  note that ->* requires parentheses
