In the first part of this series, we covered the basics of pointers in C, and went on to more complex arrangements and pointer arithmetic in the second part. Both times, we focused solely on pointe… ...

All array subscription operations in C get decomposed to pointer arithmetic anyhow; and when dealing with either multi-dimensional arrays or arrays of structs, where you want to access an ...

For me, the four chapters that explain how to use pointers with functions, arrays, strings, and structures provide the most important information and examples for programmers and engineers. Chapter 7, ...
