Learn pointers in 59 seconds, seriously!

A basic introduction to pointers in C or C++. It's a lot easier to learn something in great detail if you already understand the big picture. Yes, the title is clickbait.

If you want to dive deeper, there are plenty of other resources available, such as online courses and college lectures. Good luck!

In addition to "why pointers" is that there're a lot of low level system/hardware stuff that already exists and can't be just "declared/defined" without pointers.

I didn't find this video, this video found me

[soyilai]

I thought this was a big channel lol
Anyways, keep it up, you explain really good!

Pretty good, BUT(T) a minor nitpick at 0:31 - the asterisk is applied to the variable, not the type, therefore `int *pX, x;` would make a pX integer pointer and an x integer (doesn't matter if you declare variable per line).

Learning JavaScript was harder than c++

hey! incredible video... I like your style.
What programs do you use for those graphics and elements in the videos?

Haven’t learned much yet on this, coming from python and wondering why this is a necessity for linked lists. Maybe bc I’m about to learn how classes work here but why can’t you just define attributes like .next and .data?

Does C++ not allow for this without these pointer thingies? And why do I need dynamic memory allocation—idk what that is but it sounds like it makes things faster 😂 Also what aspect of them makes it easier to share info—I don’t see the connection here with simply storing the memory address and being able to share info more easily.

And null pointers—are those just tipoffs to yourself that nothing was stored there at all? Sorry lot of questions I am very much a beginner in this language 😅

[ddystopia]

And after that we need to teach that pointers are not just addresses and you'll run into UB if you would think so 😂

[deadspace]

l understood the concept but l am still confused on the syntax, especially on the multiple Xs

0:54 u forgot another point
"it looks cool"
XD

[Lifesstructure_]

Im wondering how i got here from anile recommendations

Good vid tho

[drakerp]

All fun and games until you have to dereference a multidimensional array cast onto an Object**** variable with overlapping parts used by multiple Objects

Didn’t use the wojak pointers meme, -2 points. 8/10

[backogd]

Great video!
btw, in 0:50 it's nullptr, not NULL, NULL is literally just 0.

[dehrk]

Uhm you didnt show accessing members through pointers and who tf uses ptr = &something… 🤓👆

[Bombastic]

This video could be readable if it weren't for all the screens of other youtube videos which are annoying in every way!!! 😡
