I have to create a binary search using pointer for a school assignment. I haven't had much luck getting it to work (please keeping mocking and laughter to a minimum)quote: int Search(int num ...
Pointer arrays are a useful tool for mapping peripheral registers to a driver. There are many advantages to using pointer arrays such as simplified initializations and the ability to generate a ...
All array subscription operations in C get decomposed to pointer arithmetic anyhow; and when dealing with either multi-dimensional arrays or arrays of structs, where you want to access an ...
The previous two posts (part 1 and part 2) have been exploring the fundamentals of using pointers from the basics of declaring a pointer to the more complex notation of manipulating pointers. An ...
Once again, pointers are simply memory addresses, and to fully utilize this similarity, C provides the concept of function pointers.
In the next few posts we will start exploring how we can use pointer arrays to create re-usable drivers. We will examine configuration tables in addition to common peripherals such as the timer, gpio ...
Arrays are not pointers; pointers are not arrays. This is perhaps the most common misconception about C, and a “Guide to C Pointers” should not propagate it.
