Im trying to understand pointers and De/references, can anyone give me a good detailed explanation on them? Ive tried wiki and some other sites, but I still can't get a good grasp of them. Can anyone help me?

Crash coarse on pointers and references

A pointer is just an address.

If I write "2115 West Street" on a scrap of paper, I haven't given you a house, I've given you a reference to a house.
