C++ for Beginners - Pointers

This video tutorial introduces pointers in C programming, explaining their use in accessing memory addresses instead of variables directly. It demonstrates the practical application of pointers through a checkerboard example, showing how to declare, use, and manipulate pointers in functions. The tutorial covers dereferencing pointers, iterating through arrays, and discusses advanced pointer types like void pointers. It concludes with tips on when to use pointers, emphasizing their complexity and potential risks.
