INTRODUCTION

If you want to be proficient in the writing of code in the C programming
language, you must have a thorough working knowledge of how to use pointers.
Unfortunately, C pointers appear to represent a stumbling block to newcomers,
particularly those coming from other computer languages such as Fortran, Pascal
or Basic.
To aid those newcomers in the understanding of pointers I have written the
following material. To get the maximum benefit from this material, I feel it is
important that the user be able to run the code in the various listings
contained in the article. I have attempted, therefore, to keep all code ANSI
compliant so that it will work with any ANSI compliant compiler. I have also
tried to carefully block the code within the text. That way, with the help of an
ASCII text editor, you can copy a given block of code to a new file and compile
it on your system. I recommend that readers do this as it will help in
understanding the material.
