The two-volume documentation has also been revised and enhanced to aid in the functionality of this revision. It is called a pointer because it literally points to data. The data that is being pointed to is referred to as the target . Allowing the programmer to address memory as bytes, integers, long integers, and strings. If the target data took any other form, conversion was necessary.
Pointers allow the programmer to address the target memory location in any fashion desired.
Even as pre-defined structure. Additionally, Code Pointers allow a programmer to call a SUB or jump to a label without needing to know their names. Source code examples have been enhanced, and additional examples have been added. Electronic documentation is included in Adobe Acrobat PDF files. Inc. All rights reserved.
