 A pointer points to a block of memory.
 The size of a pointer determines how much big one unit of the memory block is.
 You have to remember how much memory you requested.
 Adding 1 to a pointer moves the location by one unit size.
 Loosing a reference to a pointer means memory leak.
 
 This is how you work with pointers. Ir's fun until you have to manage lots of them

				 M0dev1008yStill I am a bit confused about how hard it is supposed to understand the pointer concept. Why is everybody ranting about it. I understand ranting about manually freeing your stuff since it can be cumbersome - but concept wise I think it is really straightforward.
