This lecture covers how to remove vowels from a string using pointers in C. It explains the use of two pointers, P source and B destination, to iterate through the string and copy non-vowel characters to the destination. The lecture also discusses the importance of null-terminating strings in C. The implementation is demonstrated in Visual Studio, and the function is tested to show its effectiveness in removing vowels.
