NCC Tutorial: Pointers Exercise

As usual, theoretical knowledge on some subject is nothing if you don't know how to apply it to some practical problem. So, in this post we will try to summarize and combine all the stuff we learned in this tutorial.

In NCC Tutorial: Pointers 3, we learned that the arrays are pointer equivalents. Now we will see why the pointers are useful in function calls.

In NCC Tutorial: Pointers 2, we used pointers to directly access some variables in memory. That does not make much sense when we use them inside the main function, but will become clearer next time when we are going to use pointers as function arguments. Meanwhile, let's see why pointers are important for arrays.

In NCC Tutorial: Pointers 1, I introduced * and & operators to you. In this one, I'll try to explain them through an example, so you get to know them better.

This is my first language tutorial ever, and I hope it will be helpful. I chose to write about pointers first, because that's the way everything works. The pointers are The Thing in C language. If you get comfortable using them, you will be able to really love C. Otherwise, you'll probably hate it. So, let's start with the first tutorial here.
