Most textbooks explain what pointers are (an integer holding a memory address) but fail to explain why you would sacrifice simplicity for them.
If you do use the digital version, commit to doing on pointer logic. By the time you finish, you won't just understand pointers; you will see the computer's memory as a giant playground, where a single address ( 0x7ffd... ) gives you god-like control over data.
