Explaining Pointers Until I Go Insane

Source:

There are things that you don't understand unless you have 20 years of experience in that field.

indeed, but we can still try to and fail like last time 😉

I have a course on C pointers: They are not that hard. There just a way to look at them. Once you know that, its all easy….

this is why college is a fkin waste of time never have I used the word ‘pointer’ in my career

not sure if I call that waste but yeah we could do better in college

I didn't *really* understand C pointer arithmetic until I started doing some binary reverse engineering work and saw the assembly instructions under the hood...

indeed, i also got the full clarity while doing some reverse engineering work

Do people actually use these in real codebases😂

you will be amazed by checking old codebases
