    I spent decades writing C/C++ code daily, and the best bit of advice anyone ever gave me stuck with me that entire time relating to pointers. Not sure if it is in this video, as I didn't watch it all ... When you are reading the declaration of a C/C++ variable, read it right to left in English and the meaning is obvious e.g. What is a variable defined as ... int * const * Backward .. it is a Pointer to a constant pointer to an integer e.g. What is a variable defined as int [] ** Backward .. it is a Pointer to a Pointer to an Array of Integers Easy :)

    Note about doing stuff like: int* p; It kinda make sense to put the star next to the data type... because it's an "Int pointer" named p. This is fine as long as you declare only one variable per line. Some people like to declare multiple variables at once (I don't recommend doing this but it's doable...). If you do so, only the first variable will be a pointer: int* p1, p2; p1 will be a pointer to an integer... But p2 is an integer. This is why you should put the asterisk on the variable name instead: int *p1, *p2;

    If you're as confused as me after checking the size of A in the sumOfElements function (around 1:15:27) and finding that it yields 8 instead of 4, note that in x64 architectures pointers are assigned 8 bytes. Since A is technically a pointer in that context and that's why you'll get 8 bytes of size

    The size of other types will also change dependent on the settings of the compiler. Even comparing with the same CPU, some of these are simply choice and this is why we have the "size of A" function to check that they are acting as expected. For example a "long long int" default could be 32 or 64 or 128 bits depending on language compiler and target CPU, and you can manually change this compiler configuration. This is because you may be compiling the same source code several times for different CPUs. ie for some cases int is 16b, short is 8b, and both long and long long types are 32; for clang and gcc default for AMD64 is int=32 and long-long=128b, but you could add a compile time flag to change the int to 64b or everything to 32b. Float names are more standard so a double is 64bit everywhere I have looked. But the "long double" can often create a mistake, some interpret long-double as IEEE-754 float128, some simply ignore the long and use 64bit double; and others interpret long-double as an 80bit "extended precision" float; 80bit matches the x87 floating point hardware unit that is combined with some CPUs. And a few terrible implementations (*cough*python numpy*cough*) have been known to actually use 80bit when you use explicit "float128" or "float96" keywords in your source. These 80bit floats may actually be padded with zeros to use 12 or 16 bytes of memory (96 or 128bits) to keep the typical 4 or 8 byte alignment of memory addresses and cache lines, but the x87 math unit only uses 10 bytes.

Really this is sad to know, but the work will remain as standalone masterpiece, with little time they made this impact if it had continued it would made an astonishing impact to several peoples around world. Thanks Harsha I wanted to thank several times but came to know about your story today. Thank you very much.

    1:32:51 In the while condition we're dereferencing c so that it can identify the null character and in the printf we're doing the same so that printf fumction can print the string .. and c++ is just moving the pointer to the next character(by default it point to the h of hello) so that loop can continue.

    Pointer is a vital concept in understanding a lot of programming languages, for example, in JAVA, even though there is no "pointer" concept here, but the reference variable assigned to a new constructed instance is the interpretation of pointer in JAVA. So I think it can be kind of hard for people without C/C++ background to learn JAVA virtual machine, memory management etc.
