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 pointers ...

Pointers — you either love them, or you haven’t fully understood them yet. But before you storm off to the comment section now, pointers are indeed a polarizing subject and are both C’s biggest ...

Although pointers in C/C++ can seem confusing at first, they provide an extremely powerful tool that allows you to create compact and efficient code. Although pointers in C/C++ can seem confusing at ...

A critical tool when developing an embedded system in C is an understanding of how pointers work. Misunderstanding pointer fundamentals can result in long hours spent debugging a system or a hidden ...

As someone who has spent over two decades in the embedded systems industry, I’ve seen the vast evolution of technology—from 8-bit microcontrollers to today’s sophisticated, multicore systems. Yet, one ...

This may fall under the heading of "Don't do that" but did cause me to be slightly curious.<BR><BR>What would happen if you say, created a pointer to a function that took three ints as arguments, but ...

</blockquote> <br><br>I found it easiest to just call a function in the program and run them as void and use a combination of for and switch statements in the functions to accomplish the goals. I ...
