[Dev-C++] Pointer Resourses

[Chakravarti M. <cha...@ho...>]

Hi all,
Please help me with some useful resources where I can learn and more
importantly understand Pointers.  I want to know pointer applications, why
it is necessary in a language and if it is so important for a language why
it is excluded from Java?
Waiting

I don't know why it is so important but as for java macs unix and windows
all use different file systems so a pointer wood not work on a mac in java
if it works in windows.

Pointers are needed for direct memory manipulation and for polymorphism
(single and multiple inheritance).

Java is new language and has much evolution in front. Also C/C++ design
aim is system programming and Java's much simpler applications.
