why do you need 4 hours to understand pointers

ok, not every language has pointers, but every reference has indirection, which is the only "hard" part about pointers. if you dont understand indirection you cant be a real programmer, it's that simple.

4h is nothing for such a fundamental concept you'll know all your life.

kek I made the original image, it's always fun to still see it being shared

Rust doesn't have this problem.
Lincoln Perry
This! So much this! Rust will fucking DEPRECATE C/C++, can I get an amen Rust sisters?

pointers "point" at a location in memory. What's so difficult to understand about it?
Brayden Sullivan
Rust references are the same thing as C pointers, but gimped.
Dominic Kelly
what is a pointer? Is it same as a reference to a memory sequence?
is an javascript object something like a "pointer"?

Feels good man.

4 whole ours? Bro I can't do that. I have tik toks to watch.

Javascript uses pointers for every object implicitly, yes. That's why
let obj = {};
let obj2 = obj;
obj.msg = "Hello";
console.log(obj2.msg);
Works.
In C all references have to be explicit and = makes a copy of the data instead of a copy of the reference. That's one thing pointers are for.

I actually think you'd be hard pressed to comprehensively cover pointers in 4 hours. You'd have to go over:
>the basics
>reading the retarded declaration syntax
>alignment
>aliasing (incl. strict aliasing and restrict)
>volatile
>arithmetic and comparison (incl. all the possible UB) and relation to arrays
>function pointers

But I'm sure that's not the content of this video. It probably spends most of its time covering pointer-adjacent topics like stack and heap and implementing some linked data structures.

what is a pointer?

huh?

Nothing to it.

And that's a good thing.

That's fucked up.
