Introduction to Pointers | C Programming Tutorial

Why i can't understand this!!! Is it because i played rdr2 for three hous before looking at this 🤠🤯

Sorry.
I made it half way through before I became 'bamboozled!'
😕😕

Very useful tutorial about pointers specially the `malloc` example for creating array size in the runtime

Magnificent

A bit pointless…

Thank you. I like the use of pointers for dynamically allocating memory. I still don’t get why one would have a function change the value of a variable that is not brought into scope for that function.

I think it's worth noting that the pointer-variable swap technique would come in handy if the structures being swapped are larger than long int data type

Your videos are absolutely perfect! Clear, to the point, easy to understand explanations, tons of examples, sweet voice, clean workspace, man I just wish I had found your channel sooner.

so all values in that array is stored in that one memory address?

Thank you. This is very helpful.

Possibly the best set of videos on C. Please consider doing an episode on assert() .

THANK YOUUUUU

this video changed my life

good video, i like it

this explanation is a real life saving , thank you for your effort 😊😊

Thanks for the explanation really helped me understanding the concept
Thanks

Top !!!

This video is very great. Can't believe I understood pointers and some memory related lessons. Thank you so much.

simplest and best explanation on pointers I've found thus far....You're a life saver

thank you so much!

Man I bought c course, your course 20x better

Came back to brush up, love this video!

I think the only reason pointers are confusing is because the syntax makes little sense. There's nothing about the syntax that gives clues as to what the code does, unless you already know about pointers and their syntax.

which compiler do you use for c

i'm a bit confused, towards the ending, a is a pointer, then a is also an array?

The best video ever! It has put an end to all my curiosities and given clarifications to all confusions! Thank you thank you thank you thank you sir! The examples you gave really shed enough light! God bless you hugely sir❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏

O indiano KAKAKAKAKAKAKA

Thank you so much!

Just wow ,.. I've just started learning c, but your tutorials are just exceptional in comparison to what i've been watching.. it just amazes me how your channel is underrated..

Better than paid Udemy course. As clear as day!

THANK YOU!! You are one of VERY FEW who understood how to use the SCREEN AREA properly for a screen presentation. Nice layout, easy to read font size. DOUBLE THANKS TO YOU ! :) Next... i dont know how many videos and articles about pointers in C i have seen and read...i still had trouble grasping it, since i could not align "a data type" with a plain "memory address", since these things do have nothing to do with each other to my understanding. BUT now i can see why/when the "type" starts to become useful in conjunction with a plain memory-address pointed to.

I'm so glad they had us *take a basic computer science course prior to our C course. I think why most people find pointers confusing is because they don't know how computer memory works.

I want an Apple but I point to Banana tree...

So this is a deep copy, if not a pointer and shallow copy if a pointer within a struct? What about string literals? I guess that doesn't matter because they are immutable? Is that right?

.

Thank you so much for this video! Could you explain what -> has to do with pointers? Is it a different way to express the star * operator?

About that issue of freeing memory after assigning it with 'Malloc (and also calloc, correct?)'-

Is that memory space freed by the system after the program is closed? And it definitely would be removed after a reboot or crash of the system?

Thank you

Your video was my "AHA moment" for pointers and malloc lol.

Many many thanks for your content. I'm a beginner with c and listen to these when driving (not distracted of course). I try to write code from books and other sources of basic code. My strategy is to loop, loop and loop again through c content and knowing it will sink in. I'm a bit stuck on functions ATM. Have seen your functions video and am still a bit confused with functions. A question I'm attempting is to write a c program that asks for two number (printf), stores them in variables (scanf) then prints the result (printf again). I understand what a prototype is and return type, function name and arguments of the function (variables) as I understand it. I'm not following any academic course ATM and am learning because I'm interested. Many thanks again.

Is there a video on dynamic length for strings and scanf?

Such as if I wanted the user to enter a string that isn't restricted to 5, 7, 8, 20 characters?

Also is there a video on input validation?

How would I prevent the code from continuing on with unwanted inputs that are combinations of characters and numbers and special characters.

Incredibly helpful, I was having trouble wrapping my head about how these work but this video cleared it all up.

Great explanation, helped me a lot. I'll be watching more of your videos for sure. Cheers!

Thank you very much

Dude…your videos are on point. Having just finished an intense course in C++ at my university but being actually more interested in C, this is a great way to both recap similar concepts that exist in both languages as well as getting started in C

Fuck me, I thought a 25 minute video would just answer ... WHY? why the f do you need pointers. Why not just do a = b???

This really helped me understand pointers when other resources didn’t thank you so much

You sir earned my respect. I watched alot of your content already. Can`t offer more than a sub , but all my thanks !
