C Programming [5] - Pointers

[silentpinewaves]

thanks....really helpful

[crazyfoizl]

Thanks this helped

[ephdisc]

I've been struggling with pointers for a while. This has helped me solidify my understanding. I really appreciate you taking the time to put this video together. Also thanks for not having a whiny nasally 11 year old voice. It's more appreciated than you can possibly imagine :D

[clearcreativegroup]

hey thanks this was useful! :)

I love your use of indentation to MAKE THE CODE EASIER TO READ... Also, this video is not user friendly at all. I was looking for a video to reference a friend and I wouldn't have even gotten this if I hadn't been programming for 10 years already. Maybe that's what happens when you try to learn C from a Java programmer...

[tyrail35]

use transcribe audio function from CC it is amazing

[k7iq]

I think that some people are having trouble following you because you talk a bit too fast and some of the words that are used go un-understood. Maybe

Oh dear. THIS is how you explain pointers to newbies?

Not good at all I'm sorry to say.

[1966zaim]

I just dont get you man

Your teching skills are second to 0

The concept of "not using copies" isn't something I like. To each their own, but I don't think that a beginner could watch this tutorial and understand what's going on. I'm a moderate beginner, just one semester of C programming for microcontrollers, and I don't follow your video very well. I did, however, get the concepts you were trying to convey because it's something I've seen before. Good for a refresher. Just not sure about the wording...

[ebutuou123]

could you declare xPtr = &x; and do the same for y and z and replace all instances of *x with xPtr? This didn't work for me..

[MoPapparani]

aside from a little stammering sometimes and the rare misread of a value, you do a good job of walking through the material

You actually did a better job of explaining this material than my professor did

[tokgozemre]

You are not very proficient. You are confusing. You say wrong things while you explain. I will give you a very obvious example, but if you listen to yourself, you will see that you do it all the time. Just go to 10:46, you say "Z is 404", it is actually 484...

[JesusWASdarkSkin]

Thanks mr. Java

[eurodance07]

z is 484 loll =P

Nice tutorial. What's this editor/compiler that you are using?

[MrCppHelp]

@shawnkhh editor's notepad and compiling in matrix secure shell client

[shuggyboi]

@shawnkhh i think its nano and will probably be compiling with cc in a shell.

[RIVANZORA]

hi i really liked your tutorial I realized that you use matrix and nled do you go to seneca@york college?

[Darkpirater]

Okay a pointer is a variable containing the address of another variable but why the fuck do you need to know the address of another variable?

I heard pointers are very common in C but it seem useless to me.

[0121ryanh117]

@Darkpirater Pointers are used to access memory directly. They have many uses though, for example, what if you had a huge block of memory that you had to copy from place to place in a program? Well, thats annoying, instead, you can just pass a pointer to that block.

for example, passing a pointer to a struct is a popular use.

[kezkez4]

good explanation

[phoenixdown]

its a great tutorial but you should figure out what you're going to say first..

[Cyanide1One]

nice tut!

[danielgirotto]

Thanks

[casterfile]

nice tutorial. keep up a good job. thanks.
