Pointers In C And C++ By Spotle.ai

C and C++ are probably the most powerful programming languages and a must learn for anyone interested in programming. Unlock the full power of C and C++ by learning pointers in C and C++.

Pointers are special variables that are used to store addresses. Let’s say, you have 5 values stored in the memory of your computer. A pointer points to the address of the memory space where a certain value is stored. A variable stores the value of an object. But a pointer points to the address where the value is stored in the memory.

It’s like if you are holding a pen for me in your hand, instead of saying I want the pen, I am saying I want whatever you have in your hand. So, I am pointing to the hand that is holding the pen. Pointers are something like this.

In this compact course our focus will be on pointers and how we can do many exciting things with them.
