What is an embedded pointer and what is it used for? - Quora
•Pointers of the same type can be assigned to each other –If not the same type a cast operator must be used –Exception: pointer to void(type void *) •Generic pointer represents any type •No casting needed to convert a pointer to voidpointer •voidpointers cannot be dereferenced 12

C Review and Special Topics for Embedded Programming
Pointers • Every variable has an address in memory and a value • A pointer is a variable that stores an address – The value of a pointer is the location of another variable • The size of a pointer variable is the size of an address 15 – 4 bytes (32 bits) for the MPC5553 • Two operators used with pointers
C Programming and Embedded Systems - Department of Computer
•C allows us to allocate memory in which to store data during program execution •Dynamic memory has two primary applications: Dynamically allocating an array Based on some user input or file data Better than guessing and defining the array size in our code since it can’t be changed Dynamically allocating structs to hold data in

Section 1 Basic Types and Operators C provides a standard minimal set of basic data types Sometimes these are called "primitive" types More complex data structures can be built up from these basic types Integer Types The "integral" types in C form a family of integer types
What are embedded pointers?
- Embedded pointers are pointers that are embedded in data structures such as arrays, structures, and unions. When embedded pointers only write output to a buffer and are null on input, the server application can change their values to non-null.
How to use pointers in C?
- We must understand the use of two operators (& and *) for using pointers in C. The unary operator, &, is used for getting the address of the variable. If you use '&' before a variable name, it returns the address of that variable. For example, &y will return the address of the variable y.
What is a dangling pointer in embedded C?
- 22) What is a dangling pointer in embedded C? A dangling pointer is a pointer that points to a memory location that has been already free-ed by the application and is no longer in use. Sometimes, the programmers fail to initialize the pointer with a valid address; these types of initialized pointers are known as dangling pointers.
What are pointers and how do they work?
- Pointers solve two common software problems. First, pointers allow different sections of code to share information easily. You can get the same effect by copying information back and forth, but pointers solve the problem better. Second, pointers enable complex "linked" data structures like linked lists and binary trees.

Automatic variables
•Declare within a function/procedure •Variable is visible (has scope) only within that function -Space for the variable is allocated on the system stack when the procedure is entered •Deallocated, to be re-used, when the procedure is exited -If only 1 or 2 variables, the compiler may allocate them to registers within that procedure, instead of allocating memory. -Values are not retained between procedure callsFall 2014
